Instrument Scientist
NIST Center for Neutron Research

The NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) is seeking candidates for 
a position as Instrument Scientist for the 
<http://www.ncnr.nist.gov/instruments/bt7_new/>BT<http://www.ncnr.nist.gov/instruments/bt7_new/>-7 
thermal triple axis spectrometer.  The position is in the Condensed 
Matter Physics team which supervises a suite of thermal and cold 
neutron triple axis spectrometers. A doctorate in condensed matter 
physics or related discipline and experience in triple-axis neutron 
spectrometry or related techniques is desirable but not 
essential.  The incumbent is expected to assist scientific users on 
the BT-7 spectrometer, contribute to the running of the facility and 
planning for future instrument upgrades, as well as perform their own 
independent research taking advantage of the wide range of neutron 
instrumentation available at the NCNR.   Appointment will initially 
be for two years with the possibility of extension for up to two 
additional years. Salary is in the range from $60,000 to $70,000 
depending on qualifications and experience.


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 a highly 
motivated candidate for a position in the sample environment 
team.   The position requires 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.  The position will focus on 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.
