Beschreibung:
DESY is one of the leading accelerator centres worldwide engaged in exploring the structure of matter. The main research areas range from various synchrotron radiation applications and elementary particle physics to the construction and use of X-ray lasers.
Particle accelerators produce high intensive radiation for most diverse innovative applications. By the forthcoming upgrade of the PETRA storage ring into a 3rd generation synchrotron light source, the operation of the free-electron laser FLASH and the construction of the European XFEL DESY will take up an international top position in research with photons. Amongst others X-ray free-electron laser research opens a new area of time resolved and coherent X-ray scattering applications. We are seeking to recruit a Scientist (Ph.D.) for the conception, planning and realization of the XFEL experiments in the field of coherent X-ray diffraction/ coherent X-ray imaging/X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy. The successful candidate will prepare and carry out experiments at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC/Stanford, USA and at the FLASH in operation at DESY in Hamburg. This work will be an important precursor for experiments at the future European XFEL facility in Hamburg.
Candidates should hold a Ph.D. in physics or in a related field and have a proven record in synchrotron radiation research. Experience with time resolved and coherence based X-ray experiments (imaging or correlation spectroscopy) will be of advantage. In the first phase of the project (years 1-3) work will mostly be located at LCLS/SLAC. Preparative work may also be carried out at modern 3rd generation storage ring light sources or laboratory based X-ray lasers. A possible extension of the work done in Stanford implies a shift of the centre of the activities to the FLASH and XFEL facilities in Hamburg. If you are interested in this position, please send your complete application papers quoting the reference code to our personnel department. You may also contact G. Gruebel (gerhard.gruebel@ desy.de) for further information.
The position is limited to 3 years with the possibility of 2 years extension.
Salary and benefits are commensurate with those of public service organisations in Germany. DESY is an equal opportunity, affirmative action employer and encourages applications from women. DESY has a kindergarten on site.
