We are seeking a postdoctoral scholar to help develop our LIBS-MS geochronology instrument. Examples of projects that may be pursued include understanding how LIBS and mass spectrometry techniques can be used to understand planetary lithologies, comparing K-Ar and Ar-Ar ages of planetary samples with complex thermal histories, and/or investigating experimental conditions (pressure, temperature, viewing angle, measurement techniques, etc.) to optimize flight instrument workflow and hardware. Candidates are encouraged to contact Dr. Barbara Cohen ([email protected]) directly to develop a research proposal. Applications are due July 1 and must be submitted through the NASA Postdoctoral Program web site: http://nasa.orau.org/postdoc/
