Responsibilities: Lead and/or contribute to development of new missions, mission concepts, and data analysis tools and techniques for solar coronal remote sensing research. Develop and advance novel image processing and/or spectroscopic analysis techniques. Help build, calibrate, and test new remote sensing instrumentation for solar coronal imaging and/or spectroscopy. Develop or extend a program of funded research in the fields of solar coronal physics and space weather, with emphasis on high-energy solar processes and leveraging new missions, instruments, and mission concepts. Participate in mission and instrument development activities, including laboratory and/or field calibration and testing of instruments, and development of flight and/or ground operational software. Develop and apply cutting edge techniques of coronal imaging and spectroscopy; and prototype, develop, validate, and test software to carry out data processing and analysis of solar coronal observations. Develop, propose, and carry out applied and/or fundamental research using existing solar coronal observations, new mission data, and new mission concepts. Disseminate scientific and/or technical progress and results to the broader scientific community through internal team meetings, peer-reviewed journal articles, scientific conferences and workshops, and technical documents and reports. Develop, foster, and extend new scientific and/or technical research and development collaborations within the Institute, and with external partners, both nationally and internationally.
