hela Sverige The Machine Directorate at the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund, Sweden, invites applications for a Postdoc position in Materials Science in the Target Division.
Description of division
The ESS Target Division is part of the ESS Machine Directorate with responsibility to design, develop, procure, install, commission and test the systems needed to convert the energetic proton beam coming from the accelerator to neutron beams that are utilized for experiments. The first step in this process is production of high energy neutrons through a spallation process involving the proton beam interaction with a tungsten target. The fast, high energy neutrons that are released in the spallation process are slowed down to the energies that are suitable for different types of experiments at ESS, and then delivered to the instruments through beam ports. Key features of the target station are the target itself, the neutron moderator and reflector system, and the neutron beam-extraction system.
Description of main responsibilities
• Active participation in post irradiation examination (PIE) of proton beam irradiated beam intercepting materials (BIM), in collaboration with PSI, which requires about total 2 months per year stay at PSI during the project period 2019 - 2021.
• Operation of the equipment in the Materials Lab, which is currently equipped with an SEM
• Active participation in collaborations with engineers and scientists primarily within the Target Division, providing support in materials issues
• Active participation in materials collaboration with external partners
Qualifications
Required qualifications are:
• Ph.D. in engineering, chemistry or physics, or equivalent qualifications
• Academic background in experimental materials science/engineering or solid-state physics/chemistry
• Willingness to work with radioactive nuclear materials
• Excellent communication skills, and will be an effective part of a team with diverse backgrounds and competences
• Team player that can work independently
• Excellent oral and written English skills. Knowledge of German is an advantage
• Willingness to travel for research cooperation
Desired qualifications are:
• Experience in micro-structural analyses: SEM, FIB, TEM, ATP
• Experience in elemental analyses: XRD, EDX
• Experience in mechanical testing: tensile, fatigue, bending, small-punch, charpy tests
• Experience in performing experiments using synchrotron radiation and neutron beamlines
