2. Final announcement for the Banyuls conference in honor of Jean-Loup Puget (12-16 June 2023, Banyuls, France)
This is the final announcement for the conference « From the Galaxy to the Big-Bang » to be held 12–16 June, 2023 in Banyuls, France.
This meeting is an opportunity to gather those of us who have worked with Jean-Loup Puget, as well as the younger ones advancing on the same research topics. New developments in astronomical instrumentation will be presented in relation with outstanding questions in Cosmology and Interstellar Astrophysics.
The science program is now available on the conference website.

3. Metals 2023 (November 13-17, ESO Santiago, Chile)
We are pleased to announce the ESO Conference Metal Production and Distribution in a Hierarchical Universe – II taking place at ESO Santiago, Chile, November 13-17, 2023 in hybrid form.
https://www.eso.org/sci/meetings/2023/METALS.html
Rationale:
Metals trace the full evolution of the Universe: from primordial Helium and Lithium in the big-bang nucleosynthesis to all heavier elements produced in stars and explosive events. Determining their relative abundances in different environments, and across cosmic time, reveals the underlying star formation history and gas exchange processes. Recent progress in instrumentation and modeling now permits using metal production and distribution to test our ideas of galaxy evolution at many different hierarchical scales: from stellar clusters to clusters of galaxies. The hierarchical build up of present-day structures at different redshifts can also be followed, which go in parallel with the build-up of stellar and metal mass. These processes are interwoven: during most of cosmic history metal production happens at stellar scales, but metal distribution is effective on spatial scales covering several orders of magnitude. Therefore simulations require exceptional computational power, and tracing metals across cosmic time needs an equivalent investment in observational facilities. In 2013 we held a meeting at the Observatoire de Paris to review the state of the art in all these different research areas.
Ten years later, we believe the time has come to gather the scientific community and discuss the impact of the recent advent of massive spectroscopic surveys (e.g., APOGEE, LAMOST, the Gaia ESO surveys), the Gaia astrometric mission and the now operative James Webb Space Telescope.

4. Research fellow in Cosmology at SussexDeadline: 2 May 2023
We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Research Fellowships in Cosmology at the University of Sussex. We are seeking a talented and creative cosmologist with demonstrably strong contributions to research at doctoral or post-doctoral level. Of particular interest are applicants to work with to work with Antony Lewis in the field of theoretical and numerical cosmology, esp. CMB and CMB lensing, and work related to Simons Observatory, CMB-S4 and/or LiteBird. However, outstanding applications will be considered in any relevant area of cosmology.
https://www.sussex.ac.uk/about/jobs/research-fellow-cosmology-ref-10864
Please contact Prof. Antony Lewis (antony.lewis@sussex.ac.uk) or Dr Stephen Wilkins (s.wilkins@sussex.ac.uk) for informal enquiries.
5. Postdoctoral Research Associate in Experimental Cosmology at UIUC
Application deadline: May 13, 2023
The experimental cosmology group at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, led by Professors Jeff Filippini and Joaquin Vieira, invites applications for one or more postdoctoral positions in experimental cosmology.
The successful candidate will contribute to one or more current efforts:
- Cryogenic camera development and deployment for the Terahertz Intensity Mapper (TIM). TIM is a KID spectrometer that will measure cosmic star formation history through a path-breaking measurement of line-intensity mapping from an Antarctic balloon.
- Next-generation measurements of the cosmic microwave background. The group is developing readout and optics for CMB-S4 (next-generation ground-based program) and instrumentation for Taurus (ultra-long-duration balloon mission to measure reionization and Galactic foregrounds). Analysis opportunities are available on current CMB data sets, including data from the December 2022 science flight of SPIDER.
https://my.physics.illinois.edu/submit/
The successful candidate may also participate in the group’s broader analysis and instrumentation efforts, and in their own related projects. Please contact Prof. Filippini (jpf@illinois.edu) with inquiries.
6. Faculty position in Physics at SISSA
Deadline: May 19, 2023.
The Physics Area at the “Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati” (SISSA) in Trieste, Italy, invites expressions of interest for a faculty position from outstanding female candidates with a strong research record in any of the fields covered by the Area (Astrophysics and Cosmology, Astroparticle Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, Statistical Physics, Statistical Physics of Biological Systems, Theoretical and Scientific Data Science, Theoretical Particle Physics). The appointment procedure will be activated at the assistant professor, tenure-track, level*.
The successful candidate is expected to work as an independent principal investigator, promoting and leading research activities to complement the current expertise of the present SISSA groups, as well as to attract external funds, take an active part in the SISSA PhD teaching programme, and supervise graduate students (selected on a competitive basis and funded by bursaries provided by SISSA).
