摘要：

The Institute for Shock Physics (ISP) at Washington State University has an immediate opening for a postdoctoral research associate (experimentalist) to investigate the properties of warm dense matter (WDM). WDM is an extreme state of matter at temperatures and densities that fall between condensed matter and high temperature plasma. Research activities will include the design, execution and analysis of experiments to explore WDM using the ISP shock compression facilities, as well as other national user facilities. The scientific objectives are related to the investigation of novel chemical and structural changes in this regime. We are looking for a creative, self-motivated individual, who is excited about taking on the challenges of research on materials under extreme conditions.

Only applicants who are currently in the U.S. and meet the following minimum qualifications will be considered for the position:

A very recent Ph.D. degree in Plasma Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, Atomic Physics, or a closely related field
A strong academic background and knowledge in areas related to the properties of ionized gasses, and/or strongly interacting plasmas
Research experience in plasma physics, high energy density materials, and measuring material properties in extreme environments
Graduate or post-graduate experience at a U.S. Academic Institution or National Laboratory
Excellent communication skills, both oral and written, demonstrated via scientific publications and technical presentations
Critical thinking, good judgment, clear sense of purpose, attention to detail, and accountability, as well as good interpersonal skills necessary for functioning positively in a multi-disciplinary team

Preferred Qualifications:
Experience in using diagnostics such as diffraction, absorption radiographs, or extended absorption fine structure measurements
Experience in using laser-interferometry techniques
Experience using computer simulations to model experiments and analyze data

Prior experience in shock wave or warm dense matter research is desirable, but not required. However, strong experimental skills and temperament to perform single event, large scale experiments are essential.

The salary structure is both attractive and nationally competitive. Other benefits include health/dental insurance, vacation/sick leave, retirement plans, and access to all University facilities.
