Post-doctoral Opportunity > New Applications of Electrostatic Ion Trap Mass Spectrometry > Universal Velocity Map Imaging with Femtosecond Strong Field Ionization A position is available in the Suits Group at Wayne State University beginning Sept 1, 2010 (see http://chem.wayne.edu/suitsgroup/suitsgroup/index.html) with a focus on the following areas: A unique new tandem mass spectrometer based on coupled electrostatic ion traps has been developed for studies of reaction dynamics and spectroscopy, see http://chem.wayne.edu/suitsgroup/suitsgroup/CoupledTraps/public_html/index.html . A new approach to slice ion imaging suitable for "universal" product detection is under development. This approach will make use of a new K- M Wyvern Laser providing 3.5 mJ, 45 fs pulses at 1 kHz. The position offers a salary of $42,000 per year and includes generous health benefits, etc. The candidate must have a Ph.D. in physical chemistry, chemical physics or a related field, and experience in some combination of the following areas: ion trap technology, instrument design, mass spectrometry applications and development, and ultrafast laser technology and applications, as evidenced by published work. The position is only available to US citizens or permanent residents.
