Postdoc position at NFL

[Robert McGreevy]

POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER

Uppsala University - Studsvik Neutron Research Laboratory 

The Studsvik Neutron Research Laboratory (NFL) is the Swedish centre for
reactor based research using neutrons in physics, chemistry, materials
science and engineering. NFL is a department of Uppsala University but is
responsible for providing neutron research facilities both nationally and
internationally. 

NFL has a vacancy for a postdoctoral researcher, to work primarily in the
area of residual stress measurement and analysis. Applicants should hold a
Ph.D. in an appropriate field. The person appointed will be expected to
carry out an active programme of research using the neutron scattering
instrumentation at NFL, and at other facilities as relevant. A proportion
of beamtime at NFL is guaranteed to in-house staff. 

In collaboration with the laboratory director, Dr Robert McGreevy, and the
REST instrument scientist, Dr Ru Lin Peng, they should 
· assist with instrument operation and the external user programmes, 
· participate in Swedish activities related to the European Spallation
Source project and 
· participate in educational activities, for example practical experimental
courses at NFL.
A significant part of the work will be associated with advanced software
development in the area of residual stress analysis; this is funded by the
SCANS (Software for Computer Aided Neutron Scattering) network under the
Improving Human Potential programme of the European Commission; see
http://www.studsvik.uu.se/scans.htm for more details.

The salary will be in the region of 15000 SEK per month (after tax),
depending on age and experience. Funding for this position is available for
a two year period.
