Post-doctoral position in experimental phase transformations, plasticity, and microstructure evolution under high pressure
Post-doctoral position at Iowa State University is available in Dr. Valery Levitas’ group starting in the Summer of 2024 to perform experimental research on coupled plastic flow, phase transformations, and microstructure evolution under high pressure and torsion of a sample in static and dynamic rotational diamond anvil cells. Experience with in situ high pressure experimentation […]
ERC-funded Ph.D. position
The ERC project LECOR aims to refine compositional models of the Earth’s inner core, particularly the nature of its light elements. The candidate will conduct experiments to determine the elastic and plastic properties of various iron-bearing alloys and compounds at conditions of the deep Earth’s interior. Experiments at high-pressure-temperature conditions will be performed at ID14 […]
