- Research proposal
- Three letters of recommendation
- Official doctoral transcript documents
Application Deadline11/1/2025 6:00:59 PM Eastern Time ZoneDescriptionAbout the NASA Postdoctoral ProgramThe NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) offers unique research opportunities to highly-talented scientists to engage in ongoing NASA research projects at a NASA Center, NASA Headquarters, or at a NASA-affiliated research institute. These one- to three-year fellowships are competitive and are designed to advance NASA's missions in space science, Earth science, aeronautics, space operations, exploration systems, and astrobiology.Description:Titan, Saturn's largest moon, possesses a thick nitrogen atmosphere and a surface dominated by organic molecules. Our group performs a wide array of experiments to study the chemical processes that control the evolution and composition of Titan's surface. Solubility, precipitation, photochemistry and low temperature thermal reactions are studied using infrared, Raman and ultraviolet spectroscopies, optical microscopy, synchrotron x-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction.Current research focuses on the formation of organic co-crystals at low temperature, and the reactivity of carbon dioxide with amines to form carbamic acid. We are also developing ultraviolet and infrared fiber optic probes for the in situ chemical characterization of Titan's lakes.Experience in spectroscopy, ultrahigh vacuum techniques, and/or experimental physical chemistry is desired.Malaska, M.J. and R.
