[Neutron] NEUTRON SCATTERING POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOW

[Anderson, Peggy C.]

ORNL is seeking a post-doctoral researcher with demonstrated expertise
in the area of scattering studies of condensed matter magnetism.
Candidates with a recent Ph.D. in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science,
or related fields will be considered. Experiences and knowledge with
inelastic time-of-flight instrument operation, data treatment, etc. on
pulsed neutron sources are desirable, though not essential. Strong
written and oral communication skills and the desire to work in a team
environment on scientifically challenging problems are required. The
successful candidate is expected to conduct independent research at the
Spallation Neutron Source, the High Flux Isotope Reactor at Oak Ridge
National Laboratory and other neutron scattering facilities around the
world.

 

Major Duties/Responsibilities: 

 

Responsibilities include conducting independent research using neutron
scattering as a primary research tool, mainly on CNCS (beam line 5), but
also on other beam lines at SNS and at other neutron facilities

 

*    Conceives and conducts independent and collaborative neutron
scattering experiments at SNS.

*   Travels to other neutron sources to perform neutron scattering
experiments and analyze the experimental data.

*   Publishes research results in scientific journals.

*   Assists with the operation of the CNCS beam line at SNS.

*   Maintains a strong commitment to the implementation and perpetuation
of values and ethics.

*   Ensures compliance with environment, safety, health and quality
program requirements.

*   Successfully conduct independent research and publish research
results in scientific journals.

*   Establish a strong scientific program in his/her area of expertise.

 

Reports to the lead instrument scientist of CNCS.  Works with other
members in the Neutron Scattering Science Division and collaborates with
scientists in Oak Ridge National Laboratory and other neutron scattering
institutions
