Dear Colleagues, I am forwarding the following job advertisement for my colleague Qingteng Zhang (qzhang234@anl.gov) at the APS 8-ID. If you are interested in probing dynamics at high pressure conditions and are seeking postdoc position, please contact Qingteng for more information. We seek a highly motivated Postdoctoral Appointee to develop High-Pressure, High-Temperature X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy (HPHT-XPCS) for probing non-Newtonian viscoelasticity under extreme conditions. Postdoc will join the Dynamics and Structure Group (DYS) within the X-ray Science Division (XSD) at the Advanced Photon Source (APS), work in a multidisciplinary team with chemists, geophysicists, and x-ray scientists, and be expected to apply the new HPHT-XPCS technique to address knowledge gaps in high-pressure science and publish the results in scientific journals. Apply here: https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://argonne.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/Argonne_Car... The successful candidate will lead: * Integration of high-temperature diamond-anvil-cell (DAC) environments with Small-angle X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy * Development of novel inline optics at the beamline that enables simultaneous x-ray scattering and Raman spectroscopy for high-pressure calibration, as well as on-axis microscopy The initial appointment is for two years and may be extended to a third year, contingent on performance, project progress, and funding. This is an on-site role at Argonne National Laboratory (Lemont, IL), within the X-ray Science Division (XSD) and the APS scientific user-facility. Position Requirements: * PhD completed in the past 5 years or soon-to-be completed in Geoscience, Physics, Chemistry, Materials/Mechanical/Chemical Engineering, or a related field. * Experience and knowledge in one or more of the following areas: high-pressure science, synchrotron X-ray techniques, rheology, Raman spectroscopy, and Python programming, among others. * Ability to model Argonne’s core values of impact, safety, respect, integrity, and teamwork. * Interpersonal skills, oral and written communication skills, and ability to interact with people at all levels both within and outside the laboratory. Job Family: Postdoctoral Job Profile: Postdoctoral Appointee Worker Type: Long-Term (Fixed Term) Time Type: Full time The expected hiring range for this position: $70,758.00-$117,925.00.
