1. THE GEMINI OBSERVATORY IS RECRUITING FOR A SCIENCE FELLOW IN ADAPTIVE 
OPTICS TO WORK IN HAWAII. - comunicacao do socio Marcos Diaz

The Gemini Observatory operates two 8-meter telescopes, one located on 
Mauna Kea in Hawaii and the other on Cerro Pachon in Chile. The 
observatory is an international collaboration between the United States, 
the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Chile, Argentina and Brazil. Both 
telescopes are now ramping up science operations. The scientific team is 
based in Hilo, Hawaii, and in La Serena, Chile. The Gemini Science 
Fellows are members of the science team and they participate actively in 
the main activities of the Observatory: direct support executing scientific 
observations at the Gemini telescopes; scientific support of the commissioning 
of the telescope and its sub-systems, facility and instrumentation; and 
active participation in the scientific life of the observatory through a 
strong personal research program and collaborative initiatives with the other 
members of the science staff.

Gemini is committed to the scientific productivity of its research staff.
Forty percent of a Gemini Science Fellow's time will be available for 
astronomical research. The research should focus on areas in which 
Gemini will make a major impact. 

Requires Ph.D. in astronomy, physics or a related discipline. Substantial 
experience with optical/infrared observations, data analysis and/or 
instrumentation is desirable. We preferentially seek astronomers with 
experience or knowledge of adaptive optics and high spatial resolution 
imaging and spectroscopy. The duration of the position will be for three 
years, with possible extension for two more years. Fellows will be based 
in Hilo, Hawaii, for the length of the project.

For further information contact Jean-Rene Roy (Gemini North Associate 
Director), e-mail: jrroy@gemini.edu; or Phil Puxley (Gemini South Associate 
Director), e-mail: ppuxley@gemini.edu.

Send a resume, a statement of research and development activity interest, 
and the names of three professional references by January 3, 2003 to: 

Gemini Observatory, HR Department/GSF-AO, 670 N. A'ohoku Place, Hilo, HI
