The Reaction Dynamics Group, Department of Chemistry, University of Hawai'i at Manoa, invites applications for a postdoctoral position in the field of experimental physical chemistry. The appointment period is initially for one year, but can be renewed based on availability of funds and satisfactory progress. The salary is competitive and commensurate with experience. Successful applicants should have a strong background in one or more of the following: experimental reaction dynamics, molecular beams, UHV technology, LIF, pulsed laser systems. Programming experience in C, C++, labview, and/or autocad is desirable. The prime directive of our research program is to investigate the formation of molecules in extreme environments (combustion flames, rocket propulsion systems, planetary atmospheres). A description of our current research group can be found at http://www.chem.hawaii.edu/Bil301/welcome.html. Solid communication skills in English (written, oral), a documented publication record in internationally circulated, peer-reviewed journals, and willingness to work in a team are mandatory. Only self-motivated and energetic candidates are encouraged to apply; please send a letter of interest, three letters of recommendation, CV, and publication list to Prof. Ralf I. Kaiser, Department of Chemistry, University of Hawai'i at Manoa, Honolulu, HI 96822-2275, USA. Only complete, electronic applications in pdf format (ralfk at hawaii.edu) will be considered. The review of applications will start September 1, 2012, and continues until the position is filled.
