The Role:
You will actively involve in the operation and maintenance of the beamline, providing support to external users as local contact, and develop your own inhouse research programme which should remain in the forefront of soft matter or biophysical sciences.
Your primary missions as a Beamline Scientist will be to provide support to external users by acting as local contact and perform inhouse research.
Together with other beamline staff, you will be required to contribute to the maintenance and development of the beamline, new sample environments and data analysis methods. ID02 is a high-resolution time-resolved SAXS/WAXS/USAXS instrument featuring a 34 m long detector tube combined with state-of-the-art detectors. In addition, XPCS can be performed in the SAXS/USAXS configuration. The beamline is primarily dedicated to research on soft materials and biological specimens.
Current inhouse research topics include dynamics of driven colloids, spontaneous self-assembly processes in amphiphilic systems, and relationship between microstructure and rheology in complex fluids. Your research programme should be focused on exploiting high resolution and time-resolved scattering methods for the investigation of structure and dynamics of
soft matter or biological systems that further diversify current activities.
