Deadline for submission of application:<strong> June 25, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>SEXTANTS is a new beamline conceived for the investigation of electronic and magnetic properties of matter through elastic, inelastic and coherent scattering of soft X-ray photons, open to external users since March 2011. The full energy range, from 50 to 1700 eV, is covered by two Apple-II undulators providing full polarization control, and by a fixed-deviation monochromator based on five plane gratings and one spherical mirror. The monochromator feeds two independent branches; one is dedicated to elastic (magnetic, coherent) X-ray scattering experiments, the other to resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) experiments. This latter branch, characterized by an extremely small monochromatic beam (2&#215;80 \u03bcm2 FWHM) and equipped with the AERHA spectrometer, is devoted to high-resolution RIXS experiments over the 50-1000 eV energy range, with a resolving power up to 8000. The AERHA spectrometer, developed jointly by the \u201cLaboratoire de Chimie-Physique Mati\u00e8re et Rayonnement\u201d and SOLEIL, is based on an elliptical mirror, focusing on a 13.5 \u03bcm pixel LN-cooled CCD, and on two VLS gratings, used to cover the entire energy range. It is important to remark that the high brilliance\/resolution together with the wide energy range accessible for RIXS experiments at SEXTANTS, extending from L- to M-edges of light transition metal compounds, and including oxygen and carbon K edges, makes this experimental setup not only suitable for study of the low-energy electronic and magnetic excitations in highly correlated materials (e.g., transition-metal oxides and rare-earth compounds), but also a unique place where to investigate organic compounds\/molecules deposited on solids or in gaseous\/liquid solutions.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.exsa.hu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/SOLEIL_postDoc_SEXTANTS2014.pdf\">click here for further information<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Position opens in September 2014.
