[Neutron] Job advertisement, instrument scientist TOFTOF at FRM II, Garching, Germany

[Neuhaus, Juergen]

The Technical University Munich operates the high flux Neutron Source Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (FRM II) located at the scientific campus in Garching, Germany. The neutron source itself, its research instruments as well as the irradiation facilities provide unique possibilities for the scientific and industrial use of neutron beams. For further development and operation of our high-resolution time-of-flight spectrometer TOFTOF and related projects, we invite applications (full time position 40.1h/week) under the reference number W0419TOFTOF of two

Instrument scientists

Description of position
You play a leading role in the development of methods and instrumentation in the area of high resolution time-of-flight spectroscopy with cold neutrons and are responsible for the operation of the spectrometer TOFTOF at the FRM II. In close collaboration with scientists and engineers from other in-house groups, you will be engaged in the upgrade of the instrument and the development and simulations of similar instruments at FRM II. In addition, you pursue your own research interests based on neutron scattering techniques, i.e. neutron spectroscopy.
Qualification and Experience
You have a degree in physics, chemistry, material science or related fields , ideally completed with a PhD / doctorate degree. You have knowledge and experience in the application of neutron scattering or other scattering techniques to investigate the dynamical properties of condensed matter. Knowledge on simulation tools by Monte-Carlo methods are helpful.
Persuasive communication skills and ability to work in a team in an international environment are mandatory. Good oral and
written English skills are required, German language skills are an asset.

The appointment is initially limited; a prolongation is possible. The payment is based on the German pay scale TV-L.
