A postdoctoral position (BAT IIa) is available in the field of aerosol physics
at the Department of Physics of the University of Osnabruck for three years
with special emphasis on
physical and chemical properties of levitated aerosols.
This project is primarily focused on laboratory experiments on the
characterization of physical and chemical properties of single levitated aerosol
particles of tropospheric and stratospheric relevance. Chemical transformations
of atmospheric trace gases occurring on aerosol particles will also be
investigated. The particles are stored in electrodynamic traps. Methods for in
situ- and ex situ-characterization of the aerosols include: elastic and
inelastic light scattering, optical spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry.
Applicants should have experience in the above mentioned fields. They should
also be motivated to participate in interdisciplinary collaboration projects in
environmental research. Applicants are required to assist in teaching of
students and they should have a diploma or equivalent degree in physics or
chemistry as well as a Ph.D. in physics or physical chemistry. The position
is suitable for further qualification. There is the possibility of part-time
work.
The University of Osnabrück endeavors to employ a higher portion of female
academic staff. Female candidates are therefore encouraged to apply, and
will be selected if suitably qualified. Physically handicapped applicants
will take
precedence if equally qualified.
Applications containing the customary documents should be sent by 01.05.99 to
the Dekan des Fachbereichs Physik, Universitat Osnabruck, Barbarastr. 7,
D-49069 Osnabruck, Germany.
