[High-pressure-crystallography] Ph.D. position on investigation of elastic and plastic properties of iron alloys at extreme conditions

Dear all,

We are advertising a 3-year 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 of the ESRF and also at other beamlines specializing in the experiments under extreme conditions.

Further information may be obtained from Ilya Kupenko (ilya.kupenko@xxxxxxx) and at a link below.

May I ask you to pass this email on to anyone who would be interested in this position?

Thanks!

With best regards,

Ilya Kupenko
