Postdoctoral Appointee - High-speed X-ray Imaging at the Advanced Photon Source
- Argonne National Laboratory
- Location: Lemont, USA
- Job Number: 7317939 (Ref #: 421105)
- Posting Date: Newly posted
Job Description
A postdoctoral appointee position is immediately available at the Advanced Photon Source (APS) at Argonne National Laboratory. Working with scientists from the APS, the successful candidate will lead efforts to develop experimental techniques using conventional and coherent imaging in the ultrafast time domain, as well as a computational framework for modeling and reconstructing images.
The projects will also focus on applications and algorithms employing X-ray scattering models to uncover spatiotemporal correlations in ultrafast phenomena, particularly fluid dynamics, studied at the recently upgraded APS.
The position typically lasts two years, with the possibility of renewal for a third year, contingent upon project progress and available funding.
Position Requirements
This level of knowledge is typically achieved through a formal education in physics, mechanical engineering, or chemical engineering, or a related field at the PhD level with zero to five years of employment experience with a strong interest in X-ray scattering and imaging.
Interpersonal skills, oral and written communication skills, and ability to interact with people at all levels both within and outside the laboratory.
Experience with synchrotron X-ray scattering experiments and image analysis is preferred.
Ability to model Argonne’s core values of impact, safety, respect, integrity, and teamwork.
