Job posting
The Institut of Physical Chemistry (group of Prof. Dr. R. Hempelmann
at Saarland University)
is currently looking for a
Postdoctoral Fellow, application deadline 06/07/2007
in the field of neutron spectroscopy with polarized neutrons. This
position is within a BMBF-founded project.
place of employement : PSI, Villigen, Switzerland
starting date : 01/08/2007
duration : 3 years
The aim of the project is the implementation of a polarization option
(groundbreaking wide-angle polarizers)
on FOCUS, the TOF-spectrometer at SINQ (Laboratory for neutron
scattering (ETH Zurich & Paul Scherrer Institut)).
For further informations see: http://spectroscopy.web.psi.ch/focus/
The work will be realized in close collaboration with scientists from
the Laboratory for Neutron Scattering.
The range of tasks covers (inter alia):
- definition of the project details (simulations)
- monitoring of construction and assembly
- test of prototyp and subsystems directly on FOCUS TOF-spectrometer
- implementation of the polarisation option on FOCUS
- experiments on relevant scientific tasks
Furthermore the candidate has the opportunity to take part in the
scientific program of the Saarbuecken
group (http://www.uni-saarland.de/fak8/hempelmann/) as well as in the
program of the Laboratory of Neutron Scattering,
http://lns.web.psi.ch
The possible candidate should have a PhD in physics / chemistry (or
related fields). We expect sound standing
knowledge in scattering methods to study condensed matter (preferable
neutron scattering).
