Polarised Neutrons using Polarised 3He
Attractive Salary
ANSTO is one of Australia’s foremost scientific research and development organisations, focused on delivering the benefits of nuclear science to the Australian community. Based in Sydney, we are commencing operations of the new 20 MW OPAL Reactor along with its initial suite of 9 instruments, and have built up our team of scientists at the Bragg Institute to the point that we are the leading group of neutron and x-ray scatterers in the Southern Hemisphere.
We are seeking a scientist to lead and implement an effort using optically pumped polarised 3He gas to polarise and/or analyse neutron beams, for up to five neutron beam instruments.
Successful candidates will be expected to conduct a high-quality research program, in collaboration with Australian universities, industry, other ANSTO divisions and overseas scientists. Possible areas can include physics, chemistry, materials science and engineering.
Successful candidates will have a Ph.D. in optical or condensed-matter physics, chemistry, materials science or a related area, excellent interpersonal and communication skills, and demonstrated ability to work both independently and in teams. Previous experience using optically pumped 3He and/or polarised neutrons will be an asset.
To be eligible for engagement, applicants will require a medical and security assessment. Australian citizenship is preferred. An attractive salary will be negotiated depending upon qualifications and experience.
For technical information relating to this position please contact Dr Frank Klose on
+61 (02) 9717 3592, or e-mail Frank.Klose@ansto.gov.au
