On behalf of Prof. Ross Angel:
Dear Colleagues,

        A postdoctoral position is available to 
work on the project CEAD (COMPRES Environment for 
Automated Data analysis). The successful 
candidate will develop a prototype automated data 
analysis environment for diffraction data 
collected in high-pressure experiments using 
angle-dispersive powder diffraction. The postdoc 
will develop a user environment using Python that 
will automate and serialize currently available 
software packages.  The initial data analysis 
pipe will take raw image plate or CCD images, 
integrate them, and derive lattice parameters 
using whole pattern decomposition to yield unit 
cell volumes as a function of temperature and 
pressure.  The CEAD software package will 
encapsulate the programs fit2d and GSAS and 
provide utilities for deriving unit cell volumes. 
Although Virginia Tech will be the academic home 
for the project, the postdoc will initially work 
with Paul Adams and his group at Lawrence 
Livermore National Laboratory, Berkeley, 
California in the design and production of the 
necessary software and then roll out the 
completed product  to the central facilities as 
well as interested academic and national 
laboratory groups.  The successful candidate will 
also be responsible for implementing the CEAD 
package at national laboratories and university 
departments, training new users, and implementing 
a web-based roll-out package and user manuals.

Further details about the requirements for this 
position and instructions as to how to apply 
available at http://www.crystal.vt.edu/crystal/positions.html

thankyou for the suggestions. As I am not a member of either email group, I would be very grateful if you could post the announcement on my behalf. I have copied below in a nicer font size!

  Thankyou

        Hi,

Since this is for powder diffraction, you may want to send that to the ILL
Rietveld list ([email protected]) and the sdp ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) list as
well, which are both popular in the powder community. I can forward them if
you want.
