Postdoctoral position opening

[Despina Louca]

Second Announcement: Postdoctoral Position in Materials Physics
Available immediately
University of Virginia, Department of Physics, 382 McCormick Road,
Charlottesville, VA 22904, USA.

The department of Physics at the University of Virginia is advertising a 
postdoctoral research associate position in the area of structural 
amorphous aluminum and iron based bulk metallic glasses.  The candidate 
must have experience in the areas of neutron and/or x-ray scattering at 
national facilities.  This is a multifaceted project in collaboration with 
several universities and it involves the synthesis and characterization of 
newly discovered metallic glasses.  The successful candidate will lead the 
study of atomistic structures using the pair density function (PDF), the 
isotope differential PDF and the anomalous X-ray scattering 
techniques.  Structural measurements will include high temperature and 
pressure studies of Fe and Al metallic glasses to investigate phase 
transitions, microstructural distortions, and structure-mechanical property 
relationships.  Interested applicants should have a PhD in Physics, 
Materials Science or in a related subject.  Applications should include a 
resume, list of publications and 2-3 names of references, and sent to Dr 
Despina Louca, University of Virginia, Physics Department, P. O. Box 
400714, Charlottesville, VA 22904 or electronically to louca at virginia.edu.
