Post-doc Position for Small Angle X-ray Scattering Research at MAX-lab Introduction Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) is a recently added but quickly expanding experimental technique at MAX-lab. Presently these measurements are done on one set-up at the multipurpose beamline I711. The growing interest among the MAX-lab user community for especially bio or other solution scattering experiments has proved that the set-up should be further developed to better host weakly scattering samples. Additional information on the present set-up at beamline I711 can be found on the following web-site: http://www.maxlab.lu.se/beamlines/bli711/ The function The successful candidate will be expected to contribute to the development and operation of the SAXS set-up. The candidate is also expected to collaborate with external users at the beamline. In addition, there is beamtime available and the candidate is expected to develop their own independent scientific project. Qualifications & Experience The candidate should hold a Ph.D. in chemistry, physics or a related area. We are looking for a good experimental scientist, with experience of SAXS techniques preferably at synchrotron radiation sources. The candidate should also have a strong theoretical understanding of the technique and hands on experience of the existing software for data evaluation. Our Offer The post-doctor position is for a two-year period, and should start latest June 2008. Application In addition to a short application, you should provide us with a detailed CV and publication list. Deadline for application is March 1, 2008 .
