SUMMARY:PhD position at the  Institut Laue-Langevin on Foam Characterization
DESCRIPTION:Foams structures are ubiquitous and of high technical relevance. Their understanding and control of their properties is a fundamental aspect of very diverse areas of research: from separation chemistry (foam flotation)\, to detergency\, firefighting\, to the production of multi-scaled materials (solid foams for catalysis or thermal and sound insulation). The properties of foams are intimately linked to their structure and physico-chemical properties. Bubble size and bubble size distribution\, viscosity of the liquid within the foam\, as well as the presence of nanostructure in the liquid film have a profound impact on the foam properties. Thus\, the characterization of the interactions at the liquid/gas interface and between facing interface at a molecular and macroscopic scale is of outermost importance for the understanding of foams and for their subsequent application in the different domains. \nResearch Project The project consists of two phases. In the first one\, the commercial Foamscan apparatus will be adapted to be employed at small-angle neutron scattering beamlines. This step\, in cooperation with the producer\, Teclis-Scientific\, will allow the simultaneous determination of the macroscopic foam properties (bubble size\, bubble size distribution) and the investigation of its structure at the nanometer scale. The second part will be dedicated to the investigation of foams based on PolyOxoMetalates\, a class of very large ions\, which may serve simultaneously as foam stabilizers and complexating agents for the recovery of valuable metal ions\, such as lanthanides and others transition metals (Mo\, V\, W\, Ta …).\nThe project results from a cooperation of the Institut Laue-Langevin and the Institut de Chimie Separative de Marcoule (ICSM)\, a joint research unit involving the CEA\, the CNRS\, the University of Montpellier and the National Graduate School in Chemistry of Montpellier (www.icsm.fr) and TECLIS Scientific (www.teclis-scientific.com)\, french industrial company specialises in measuring instruments for interface science. The position will be located at the Institut Laue-Langevin\, Grenoble. However the project foresees some working periods of few months at ICSM in Avignon area\, few weeks at Teclis-Scientific in Lyon. The student will be employed under generous conditions by the ILL\, with a gross salary of approximately 2400 €/month in addition to numerous benefits (see employment conditions) at ). We are seeking for motivated candidates with a very good MSc/diploma in physical chemistry and physics (or a related field) and ideally some previous expertise in foam characterization or colloid/polymer science. As data analysis represents an important aspect of the project\, previous knowledge or willingness to learn programming languages such as Python or C are a strong asset. \nFor more information please contact Dr. Olivier Diat (olivier.diat@cea.fr\,) or Dr. Leonardo Chiappisi (chiappisil@ill.eu). Applications including a motivation letter should be sent by email with the reference “PhD project201_23” in the subject.

SUMMARY:1 Postdoc and 1 PhD position in "Topological Fluid Mechanics" at the University of Luxembourg
DESCRIPTION:Luxembourg is a dynamic\, multicultural country in the heart of Europe with a strong research and development base supported by important financial and organisational resources. It offers state-of-the-art facilities and an excellent training environment for cross pollination of research ideas across faculties of engineering and natural sciences. \nWithin Luxembourg\, innovative research in the area of biophysics is carried out at the University of Luxembourg’s Physics and Materials Science Research Unit (PHYMS-RU) and the Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB). Close synergies with the Life Sciences Research Unit (LS-RU)\, Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH)\, the Luxembourg National Health Laboratory (LNS)\, and the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) make Luxembourg a thriving hub for cutting edge cross-disciplinary research in the physics of living systems. \nApplication is now open for a: \nPostdoctoral researcher position in Topological Fluid Mechanics \nDetails and application procedure can be found here: http://emea3.mrted.ly/2gyie \n\n  \n\nRef: RCREQ0004042\nInitial 12 months fixed-term contract\, renewable for up to 24 months (depending on interim evaluation after first 6 months)\nFull time position (40 hrs/week)\nStarting date: September 2020 or the earliest possible date\n\nYour Profile\nWe are seeking excellent and highly motivated candidates holding a PhD degree in a field related to the topic of the program (PhD or equivalent in Natural Sciences or Engineering Sciences). Experimental and theoretical background in soft and/or active matter physics and fluid mechanics is essential. Experience/knowledge of quantitative imaging\, analysis and pattern recognition techniques will be given preference. Fluency in English is mandatory. Willingness to work in an inter-cultural and international environment\, and the ability to work independently or as part of a team\, are desired. \n\nPhD position in Topological Fluid Mechanics \nDetails and application procedure can be found here: http://emea3.mrted.ly/2gyi7 \n\nRef: RCREQ0004041\nInitial 36 months fixed-term contract\, renewable for up to 48 months (depending on thesis progress evaluation)\nFull time position (40 hrs/week)\nStarting date: September 2020 or the earliest possible date\nEmployee and student status\n\n\nYour Profile\nWe are seeking excellent and highly motivated candidates holding a Master’s degree in a field related to the topic of the program (MSc or equivalent in Natural Sciences or Engineering Sciences).
