Position Announcement -- NSE Instrument Scientist at NCNR

[Nicholas Rosov]

            NEUTRON SPIN ECHO SPECTROMETER INSTRUMENT SCIENTIST

                    NIST CENTER FOR NEUTRON RESEARCH
              NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF STANDARDS AND TECHNOLOGY

 
The NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) is seeking qualified candidates
for an anticipated opening as a Neutron Spin Echo Spectrometer (NSE)
Instrument Scientist.  A recent Ph.D. in experimental Condensed Matter or
Materials Physics--or in Materials Science or Chemical Physics--who has
studied dynamical phenomena using scattering techniques or nuclear magnetic
resonance is sought to share the responsibilities associated with the
operation of the NCNR NSE. These responsibilities include helping visiting
researchers conduct experiments and reduce data; testing, calibrating, and
maintaining the spectrometer; and participating in instrument and equipment
development projects, including software development.  These duties are
intended to occupy no more than two-thirds of the instrument scientist's
time, allowing him/her to conduct independent or collaborative research
using the NSE and other facilities at the NCNR.

The initial appointment will be for two years with the possibility of a one-
or two-year extension.  The salary may range from $45,000 to $55,000,
depending on qualifications and experience.
