We invite applications for a postdoctoral position at our Neutron Scattering Centre at the Helmholtz Center Berlin for 
Materials and Energy, Germany. The Helmholtz Center Berlin is a German National Laboratory and a member of the Hermann 
von Helmholtz Association of National Research Centres and has more than 1000 employees. It hosts a Neutron Scattering 
Centre (http://www.hmi.de/bensc/) and the synchrotron source BESSY, a user facilities open to scientists from all over 
the world. To probe the structure and dynamics of solids and liquids, we provide the national and international research 
community with state-of-the-art neutron scattering equipment and expertise.

The successful candidate will support users at the neutron powder diffractometer E6 (see http://www.hmi.de/bensc/) and 
take part in the research program of the department which includes major activities in quantum magnetism and novel 
magnetic oxides. A broad knowledge in condensed matter physics or chemistry will be required as well as experience in 
scattering methods. A background in neutron diffraction, crystallography and a strong scientific interest in crystal 
magnetism will be preferred. Staff has access to 30% of the beam time on all neutron scattering instruments for their 
own research.

The appointment is for 3 years. Applicants should send a letter of application, a detailed CV, two academic references, 
a list of publications and copies of degrees to Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin für Materialien und Energie, Abt. Personal und 
Soziales, Glienicker Str. 100, D-14109 Berlin, Germany, quoting reference NO. M 2009/1 (email: 
personalabteilung at helmholtz-berlin.de). The deadline for the application is 13 March 2009.
