[Neutron] Vacancy for a Research Scientist at ILL

[recruitment]

The Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), situated in Grenoble, France, is 
Europe's leading research facility for fundamental research using 
neutrons. The ILL operates the brightest neutron source in the world, 
reliably delivering intense neutron beams to 40 unique scientific 
instruments. The Institute welcomes 1700 visiting scientists per year to 
carry out world-class research in solid-state physics, crystallography, 
soft matter, biology, chemistry and fundamental physics. Funded 
primarily by its three founder members: France, Germany and the United 
Kingdom, the ILL has also signed scientific collaboration agreements 
with 10 other European countries. The Science Division currently has a 
vacancy for a*:

*

*RESEARCH SCIENTIST (m/f) - Diffuse and inelastic neutron scattering -*

**

Working within the *Time-Of-Flight and High-Resolution (TOF/HR) Group*, 
you will be co-responsible for operating and improving a neutron 
spectrometer.  In addition to carrying out your own active research 
programme, you will be responsible for assisting ILL's visiting 
scientists with their experiments and you will also participate in 
operating and developing the instrument. Duties will also include the 
promotion of scientific partnerships in your field of research.

We are particularly interested in highly motivated candidates with a PhD 
in physics or chemistry and  with knowledge of neutron scattering 
techniques. A strong background in instrumentation, in particular 
polarization analysis, is necessary. The post represents an excellent 
opportunity for young postdoctoral scientists to develop expertise, 
broaden experience and interact with leading scientists from around the 
world. Applications from more experienced scientists able to obtain a 
secondment period from their home institution will also be considered.
