Sample Environment Scientists/Engineers
<http://www.ncnr.nist.gov>NIST Center for Neutron Research
<http://www.nist.gov>National Institute of Standards and Technology

The NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) is seeking highly 
motivated candidates for three staff positions in the sample 
environment team.   These positions require a bachelor's degree or 
higher from an accredited college or university in Physics, 
Chemistry, Materials Science, Physical Chemistry, or Chemical 
Engineering, with initial salary in the range $43,000-$55,000 
depending on qualifications and experience.  Two positions will focus 
on the 15 T superconducting magnet system being acquired, as well as 
generally assisting staff and users with their neutron scattering 
experiments that utilize a wide range of sophisticated computer 
controlled sample environment equipment, including low temperature 
cryostats, furnaces, superconducting magnets, and high pressure 
systems.   Responsibilities will range from interaction with guest 
researchers and setup of equipment to extending present sample 
environment capabilities and developing new systems.  One position 
will focus on providing optically-pumped polarized helium-3 cells, 
spin flippers, and guide fields at the neutron instruments to carry 
out polarized neutron scattering measurements, as well as extending 
our present polarized neutron capabilities.  Staff members are 
expected to become proficient in sample environment equipment as well 
as helium-3 polarizers so that they can carry out responsibilities in 
both areas as needs arise.

Please send inquiries and your resume (electronically) to:
