                      Postdoctoral Fellowship 
                        McMaster University


A postdoctoral fellowship in neutron and x-ray scattering studies
of topical problems in materials physics is offered at McMaster University
under the supervision of Prof. B.D. Gaulin.  Facilities at McMaster include
a modern x-ray scattering laboratory, based on an 18 kW rotating anode 
generator, as well as an extensive array of sample preparation facilities 
including a new floating zone image furnace laboratory for large single 
crystal growth. Areas of current interest include exotic magnetic ground state
materials, high temperature superconductivity, and phases and phase 
transitions in model biological membrane materials.  Experience in neutron 
or x-ray scattering techniques, or single crystal growth is an asset, but 
is not required.  This position is available immediately, but later starting
dates can be accomodated.  Interested parties should arrange to send their cv,
along with the names and contact information of at least two persons familiar 
with their work, to:

Prof. B.D. Gaulin
Department of Physics and Astronomy
McMaster University
1280 Main Street W.
Hamilton, ON, L8S 4M1

The appointment will be made initially for one year, and renewable for a 
second year by mutual agreement.
