[Neutron] Powder Diffraction Postdoc at IPNS

[Worlton, Thomas G.]

Postdoctoral Research Associate Position in Powder Diffraction at IPNS
at Argonne National Laboratory

A post-doctoral research associate position is immediately available to
participate in neutron and x-ray powder diffraction research using the
General Purpose Powder Diffractometer (GPPD) at the Intense Pulsed
Neutron Source (IPNS) and instrumentation at the Advanced Photon Source
(APS) at Argonne National Laboratory.

Applications are invited from highly motivated individuals with a Ph.D.
in chemistry, materials science, materials engineering, physics, or a
related field with a strong background in diffraction and
crystallography, including familiarity with neutron and x-ray
scattering, powder diffraction and structure/property relationships. The
successful candidate will join the GPPD instrument team at IPNS and
participate in user-initiated as well as independent scientific
programs.  Ongoing scientific activities include: (1) crystal chemistry
and structure-property relationships in catalytic materials; (2)
crystallography and local structures of complex materials; (3)
structures of hydrogen storage materials; and (4) residual
strain/crystallographic texture measurements in alloys and composites,
including strain and orientation distribution function determinations.

Interested candidates should submit a curriculum vita, a brief
description of research interests, and contact information for three
referees via the Argonne career web site at http://www.anl.gov
<http://www.anl.gov/>  under postdoctoral openings for requisition
number IPNSJR PNS.

Technical inquiries concerning this position should be addressed to J.
W. Richardson (jwrichardson at anl.gov <mailto:thiyaga at anl.gov> ). For more
information about IPNS, see http://www.pns.anl.gov/

Argonne is an equal opportunity employer, and we value diversity in our
workforce.
