Your tasks:

• Development and implementation of neutrino quantum kinetic simulations
• Coverage of multiple flavor oscillation phenomena
• Improvement of understanding of the role of neutrino flavor transformations in dense astrophysical environments (e.g., core-collapse supernovae and neutron star mergers)
• Investigation of implications for nucleosynthesis

The following qualifications and skills are desirable:

• Master's degree in Physics or Astrophysics
• Experience in Neutrino flavor oscillations
• Experience in Hydrodynamic simulations and scientific high-performance computing
