Assistant Professor - experimental physics

Post: Assistant Professor

Field: physics (experimental)

NCBJ opens up a competition for the Assistant Professor post in Nuclear Methods in Solid State Physics Division (FM1) located in Otwock/Świerk.

The successfull candidate must hold PhD degree in physics, and must have documented solid state physics knowledge. Experience in neutron diffraction/scattering research will be an asset. Readiness to single-handedly work in an international environment will be an essential evaluation criterion (numerous foreign visits are predicted). Development of neutron measurement methodology at the MARIA reactor will be the major objective of the candidate. The first task will be to actively participate in moving neutron diffractometers (used at the BER II reactor) from HZB Berlin to NCBJ Świerk and to put them into operation in Świerk.

Detailed requirements:

• experience in research conducted with the use of neutron beams;
• experience in practical development of experimental techniqes (diffraction, neutronography);
• proven scientific record in neutron physics (publications);
• capability to work in an international environment;
• documented good practical knowledge of experimental techniques used to study materials structural properties, in particular neutron-based methods;
• teamwork skills, readiness to participate in international collaborations;
• good command of spoken and written English;
• command of German will be an additional asset.
