Roskilde University (RUC, Roskilde, Denmark)<br>
invites applications for a Postdoctoral and a Ph.D. position in in-<br>
and quasi-elastic neutron scattering on glass-forming liquids. The<br>
deadline for application is April 20 2013.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Job description</span><br>
You will be part of a new research project led by Associate Professor<br>
Kristine Niss. This project aims at testing new theoretical<br>
predictions by means of in- and quasi-elastic neutron scattering. We<br>
will perform a range of experiments in which fast (pico-nano second)<br>
and slow (mili-kilo second) dynanimics are studied as function of both<br>
pressure and temperature in glass-forming liquids. This is by no means<br>
standard in the field and the development of a new measuring cell for<br>
combined neutron and dielectric high-pressure measurement is a main<br>
part of the research project. This is done in collaboration with a<br>
group of international collaborators. The primary tools involve the<br>
use of in- and quasi-elastic neutron scattering methods, available at<br>
international large-scale facilities, and dielectric spectroscopy,<br>
available at Roskilde University.<br>
<br>
The postdoctoral position is a 2 year position. The Ph.D. postion is 3<br>
years. Read about qualification requirements, employment conditions<br>

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Information about the research group and Roskilde University</span><br>
You will be part of the “Glass and Time" research group. Research at<br>
"Glass and Time" focuses on understanding the universal physical<br>
properties of highly viscous liquids approaching the glass<br>
transition. This problem is attacked experimentally as well as by<br>
extensive computer simulations in combination with theory. In fact<br>
close collaboration and daily interactions between theorists and<br>
experimentalists is characteristic feature of the "Glass and Time"<br>
group. "Glass and Time" hosts several Ph.D. students, postdocs, and<br>
experienced scientists. The most important task of Roskilde University<br>
is to contribute to experimental, innovative forms of learning and<br>
knowledge creation. The University is situated approximately 30 km<br>
from Copenhagen and is well connected with Copenhagen by trains that<br>
run four times an hour.<br>
