Applications are invited to fill the position of Stfc PDRA at the College of Physical Sciences at the Open University. Our research covers a wide range of the science and exploring the solar system. We are looking at the origin and development of the solar system, through physical, geological, chemical and biological processes that drive it. We use laboratory and satellite task experiences, remote monitoring, environmental simulation and modeling to investigate surfaces and atmosphere of Earth’s planets, moon, asteroids, comets and materials outside the Earth.

The pregnant woman is expected to work independently but it will be part of the active chemistry research group (CRG). The project aims to evaluate Kuma how important Ryugu and Bennu materials are in the environment close to Earth and to understand why it seems to be greatly represented in the current meteorite flow. To be effective in this role, a successful candidate will have a previous research experience that can be clarified in the reflection of the reflection (for example, UV-VIS) of planetary and/or/or working with geological samples/outside terrorism using standard petroleum tools, such as SEM/EPMA, and a path of a path installed in dealing with large and complex data groups Understanding in the locations.

The successful result of this work will be a better understanding of whether primitive materials (for example, type CI) may be a more important component in the land environment near than now. The intense scarcity of this article in the meteorite record may be a reflection of its essential hiking and leads to its low strength, in line with the notes written by Hayabusa2 and Osiris-Rex. This work represents an analytical challenge, and requires great skills and patience in treating rare and small samples, developing new reference materials and protocols as required and the ability to work independently as well as part of a team in a modern laboratory environment.
