POSTDOCTORAL POSITION

APPLIED PHYSICS INSTITUTE

WESTERN KENTUCKY UNIVERSITY

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the utilization of pulsed neutrons for elemental characterization. The successful applicant will join an active group developing non-destructive methods for bulk analysis and characterization. Preference will be given to candidates with a PhD in nuclear physics and a background in neutron physics, nuclear electronics, data acquisition systems and Monte Carlo methods. This is a one year position renewable, depending on performance and grant funds availability. Salary is commensurate with qualifications and experience. In-house facilities include several sealed tube 14 MeV neutron generators, a 1 MeV Radio Frequency Quadrupole Accelerator, several isotopic neutron sources (252Cf, Pu-Be), and a large variety of data acquisition electronic units, neutron detectors, and HPGe, NaI(Tl) and BGO gamma-ray detectors.
