Multiwavelength view of Very High Energy (VHE) low- and high-power AGN jets

Application deadline: 2025 Nov 07

CTAO will enable us to detect very high-energy blazars of all `flavors', from the less powerful ones (with high synchrotron peak frequencies) to the more powerful ones (with the lowest synchrotron peak frequencies). Further, other types of jets will be seen by CTAO: γ-NLSys; radio galaxies; low-power AGNs. The PhD position will be focusing on analysing and interpreting the X-ray and optical/UV data of the potential VHE emitters, studying their variability patterns using machine learning and timing analysis techniques, and model their spectral energy distribution.

This PhD position is within the Helmholtz Weizmann Research School for Multimessenger Astronomy
