Pièces jointes: ATT00001.txt Postdoctoral Associate – Condensed Matter Physics/Neutron Scattering The University of Missouri Research Reactor Center (MURR) has an opening for a Postdoctoral Associate position for up to 2 years. MURR is the largest neutron source (10 MW) on a U.S. campus and is well-suited for neutron scattering research. It currently operates 4 instruments: a triple-axis spectrometer, a reflectometer, and two powder diffractometers. Primary responsibilities The successful candidate is expected to enhance the existing neutron scattering program by participating in existing neutron scattering research projects and being involved in upkeep and maintenance of the existing suite of instruments. He/she is encouraged to initiate an active research program of his/her own in Condensed Matter Physics/Materials Science primarily utilizing MURR’s instruments. Qualifications Candidates are expected to have a PhD in Physics, Chemistry, or Materials Science. A strong background in neutron scattering is required, preferably with expertise in neutron reflectometry – research and instrumentation. The evaluation of candidates will be based upon the strength of the candidate’s scientific profile, publication record, and future research potential. The ability to work in a team environment is a must. Effective communication skills, including fluency in English, are essential. We can offer The position is initially for one year and renewable for an additional year, contingent upon satisfactory performance.
