[Neutron] NCNR Cold Triple Axis Instrument Scientist Position

[Jeff Lynn]

Instrument Scientist
NIST Center for Neutron Research

The NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) is seeking candidates for 
a position as Instrument Scientist for the SPINS cold triple axis 
spectrometer.  The position is in the Condensed Matter Physics team 
which supervises a suite of thermal and cold neutron triple axis 
spectrometers. A doctorate in condensed matter physics or related 
discipline and experience in triple-axis neutron spectrometry or 
related techniques is desirable but not essential.  The incumbent is 
expected to assist scientific users on the SPINS spectrometer, 
contribute to the running of the facility and planning for future 
instrument upgrades, as well as perform their own independent 
research taking advantage of the wide range of neutron 
instrumentation available at the NCNR.   Appointment will initially 
be for two years with the possibility of extension for up to two 
additional years. Salary is in the range from $57,000 to $66,000 
depending on qualifications and experience.

The NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) is seeking highly 
motivated candidates for two staff positions in the sample 
environment team.   These positions require a bachelor's degree or 
higher from an accredited college or university in Physics, 
Chemistry, Materials Science, Physical Chemistry, or Chemical 
Engineering, with initial salary in the range $43,000-$55,000 
depending on qualifications and experience.  One position will focus 
on assisting staff and users with their neutron scattering 
experiments that utilize a wide range of sophisticated computer 
controlled sample environment equipment, including low temperature 
cryostats, furnaces, superconducting magnets, and high pressure 
systems.   Responsibilities will range from interaction with guest 
researchers and setup of equipment to extending present sample 
environment capabilities and developing new systems.  The second 
position will focus on providing optically-pumped polarized helium-3 
cells, spin flippers, and guide fields at the neutron instruments to 
carry out polarized neutron scattering measurements, as well as 
extending our present polarized neutron capabilities.  Both staff 
members are expected to become proficient in sample environment 
equipment as well as helium-3 polarizers so that they can carry out 
responsibilities in both areas as needs arise.
