University of Nottingham, School of Chemistry
Spectrosocopy and Dynamics Group
Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Chemical Physics
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research position funded
by the EPSRC. The project will focus on the investigation of VUV
molecular photofragmentation dynamics (i.e. ionisation, dissociation,
and non-adiabatic electron-nuclear couplings) using novel electron-ion
recoil vector correlation techniques. Existing instrumentation and
capabilities are being extended by the development of a new supersonic
molecular beam spectrometer designed to be compatible with both
synchrotron and laboratory VUV sources. The Fellow will have an
opportunity to participate in established collaborations, in
particular with groups in Paris and Berlin.
Candidates should already hold or be about to obtain a PhD. Experience
in at least some of the following areas would be desirable: UV/VUV
photoionization spectroscopy and/or dynamics, molecular beam sources,
electron/ion optics, time-of-flight techniques and electronics,
position sensitive imaging particle detection.
The post is available immediately, or at some later date by mutual
agreement, at a salary on the UK National RA1A scale.

Applicants should send a detailed CV, together with the names,
addresses, telephone/fax numbers of two referees to Dr I. Powis,
School of Chemistry, University of Nottingham, NG7 2RD.
