Australian and Chinese colleagues are ideally placed to take advantage of these developments, which could have an ever greater impact if we combined forces to pursue the most exciting opportunities where complementary expertise is available among the partners. Current facilities and ongoing photometric and spectroscopic surveys in China and Australia, as well as those accessible internationally to both communities, offer exciting prospects for major new insights into stellar and galactic properties across time and space. This three-day virtual workshop aims to familiarise researchers from both partner countries with each other's expertise and research interests, thus leveraging our joint strengths to achieve more than the simple sum of our research efforts. In practical terms, the software and database tools we need to make the data accessible to both communities will feature prominently, as will developments regarding future instrumentation needs. _/Topics will include/_: 1. Spectroscopy: GALAH+ (Australia); LAMOST (China); 4MOST (Australia, international); SDSS, DESI (international) 2. Time domain: Vera Rubin Observatory/LSST (Australia); 50BiN/SONG (China); TESS (international) 3. Extremely Large Telescopes: GMT (Australia); TMT, C30 (China) 4. Future ground-based facilities: 6.5m/12m telescopes (China), 2.5m WFST (USTC/PMO), 1.6m Mephisto telescope (YNU): multi-colour optical/NIR photometric surveys (China) 5.

Prescod-Weinstein will introduce the audience to her debut book, The Disordered Cosmos: A Journey into Dark Matter, Spacetime, & Dreams Deferred (2021), which through an exploration of quantum and particle physics brings to light the dark imperialist history of modern day science. Prescod-Weinstein acknowledges the contributions of those who have been left out of the cannon of physics, while expanding our understanding of the universe while advocating for a more just and inclusive practice of science. She will also talk about her spectacular career trajectory from starry-eyed child to cosmologist, who had to navigate not only the mind-expanding fields of theoretical physics and maths but also the harmful prejudices entrenched within the academic system. SPEAKERS Dr. Chanda Prescod-Weinstein is an assistant professor of physics and astronomy and core faculty in women?s and gender studies at the University of New Hampshire. The author of The Disordered Cosmos: A Journey into Dark Matter, Spacetime, and Dreams Deferred, she is also a columnist for New Scientist and Physics World. Her research in theoretical physics focuses on cosmology, neutron stars, and dark matter. She also does research in Black feminist science, technology, and society studies. Nature recognized her as one of 10 people who shaped science in 2020, and Essence magazine has recognized her as one of ?15 Black Women Who Are Paving the Way in STEM and Breaking Barriers.? A cofounder of Particles for Justice, she received the 2017 LGBT+ Physicists Acknowledgement of Excellence Award for her contributions to improving conditions for marginalized people in physics and the 2021 American Physical Society Edward A. Bouchet Award for her contributions to particle cosmology. Originally from East L.A., she divides her time between the New Hampshire Seacoast and Cambridge, Massachusetts. Karlie Alinta Noon is a Gomeroi astronomer and science communicator who promotes Indigenous astronomical knowledge systems and advocates for women in STEM. She was the first Indigenous female to obtain degrees in physics and mathematics and is currently completing a PhD at the Australian National University looking at the centre of the Milky Way galaxy. Noon was an ACT Young Australian of the Year finalist and a Eureka Prize Emerging Leader finalists in 2019, as well as the first Astronomy Ambassador at the Sydney Observatory. ____________________________ Best regards, ?

Best regards, Scott Croom ASTRO 3D Postdoctoral Research Associate Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate (Level A) to undertake research on galaxy evolution and integral field spectroscopy using the new Hector instrument to be commissioned in 2021 on the Anglo-Australian Telescope, as part of the ARC Centre of Excellence for All-sky Astrophysics in 3 Dimensions (ASTRO 3D), under the guidance of Prof. Scott Croom, Prof. Joss Bland-Hawthorn and A. Prof Julia Bryant. ASTRO 3D is a $40m Research Centre of Excellence led by Prof. Lisa Kewley. ASTRO 3D is funded over seven years by the Australian Research Council and supported by six collaborating Australian universities - ANU, University of Melbourne, University of Sydney, Swinburne University of Technology, University of Western Australia and Curtin University. Other Australian partners in the Centre include CSIRO, the Australian Astronomical Observatory and National Computational Infrastructure. ASTRO 3D includes collaborations with world leading international institutions. The ASTRO 3D mission is to produce a comprehensive picture of the evolution of matter, the chemical elements, and ionizing radiation in the Universe from shortly after the Big Bang to the present day. ASTRO 3D trains the next generation of scientific leaders and conducts nationwide education and public outreach programs. This position, within the School of Physics at the University of Sydney, is for 2 years (with a possible extension of up to 1 year). The research focus is on exploiting data from the new multi-object integral field spectrograph Hector, being deployed on the Anglo-Australian Telescope in mid-2021. There will also be opportunities to conduct research on other related integral field surveys. The specific science program will focus on analysis of the emission line data from the Hector survey. This will include using the high spectral resolution of Hector to identify and quantify galactic scale outflows. The successful candidate would also be expected to contribute to the operation of the Hector survey, for example, through observing and/or support of pipelines. Visa sponsorship for this position, if required, is only available for candidates who are currently located within Australia. All applications should be made through the University of Sydney recruitment webpage linked below. Applications should include a covering letter addressing the specific selection criteria as well as the contact details of three academic referees.
