Post-doctoral position in gravitational waves at the NASA Goddard Space
Flight Center and University of Maryland.

The Gravitational Astrophysics Laboratory at NASA's Goddard Space
Flight Center and the Maryland Gravitational Wave Theory Group
at the University of Maryland-College Park (UMCP) are seeking
applications for a joint postdoctoral position in gravitational waves,
possibly opening in the Fall of 2012. The position is for one year with
the possibility of renewal for additional years.

This position supports a joint project, led by John Baker (GSFC),
and Alessandra Buonanno (UMCP), to study the performance of
future space-based gravitational-wave instruments in observing binary
black-hole mergers. Competitive applicants should have background
in source modeling, instrument modeling and/or data analysis.

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, list of publications, 
and a description of past research and future research plans,
and should arrange for at least three letters of recommendation
to be sent to gwt-postdocs@physics.umd.edu

It is requested that all application materials be sent as pdf files or
