[Semen Gorfman]

Dear All,

We are seeking a PhD candidate to work on novel structure-determination 
methods as applied to disordered ferroelectric materials.

A successful candidate will be based in Tel Aviv, Israel, but will spend 
up to 3 months in the USA. (S)he will play the key role in the 
collaborative project between Tel Aviv University and National Institute 
of Standards and Technology (USA), which is supported by US-Israel 
Binational Science Foundation.

The desired skills include the knowledge of computational physics (e.g. 
numerical linear algebra, optimization techniques, Monte Carlo methods) 
and computer programming.  Some knowledge of solid-state physics and 
familiarity with X-ray crystallography and X-ray / neutron scattering 
methods would be a plus.

The position is available for 3 years with a tentative starting date of 
November 1st, 2019.

For further information contact Semën Gorfman (gorfman at tauex.tau.ac.il)
