Postdoc position in optimal control and space mechanics at CNES Toulouse,
France

A one year (renewable once) PostDoc position will be available from
(earliest)
September 2010 at the French space agency (Centre National d’Etudes
Spatiales)
in Toulouse, France. The remuneration is 2172 euros (January 2008
values) per
month before taxes.

Subject: The candidate will contribute to the development of a novel
strategy
for collision avoidance during the close rendezvous of two space vehicles by
using optimal control techniques.

Requirements: The candidate should hold a PhD in applied mathematics and
should
have an excellent background in optimal control, mathematical
programming and
their numerics. Knowledge on space mechanics will also be appreciated.

Working language: French.

Application: The application, containing the candidate's cv and a
description
of his/her research interests and achievements should be sent (preferably by
email) to
