Required post for Research Associates – 3/Research Associates – 1 (One post only) and Junior Research Fellow (Two posts) in BRNS sponsored Project entitled, ‘Studies on Aerosol Behaviour under Serve Accident Conditions in the Context of Indian Nuclear Reactor by Setting up of National Aerosol Facility’ on plain paper.The appointment is purely temporary and on contractual basis. About this project National Aerosol Facility (NAF) will address the aerosol behavioural issues in Indian PHWRs and generate a comprehensive database to facilitate the development of in-house analytical tools. This facility will serve as a state-of-the-art test facility for studying current outstanding aerosol mechanistic behaviour issues in safety assessments pertaining to the Indian PHWRs. It will also serve as a national facility for Indian researchers to carry out customized experiments in the field of aerosol science and technology as it pertains to nuclear power.
NAF will be at par with other international facilities for nuclear aerosol studies; hence collaboration with international institutes is also envisaged. Candidates interested to work in this challenging project may apply. Minimum qualification and experience for Research Associates – 3 – Ph.D. in Atmospheric Sciences/Aerosol Science/Physics/Climate Sciences/Chemistry/Environmental Science with 2 years relevant experience (Salary: Rs 40,000 p.m. consolidate). Minimum qualification and experience for Research Associates – 1 – Ph.D. in Atmospheric Sciences/Aerosol Science/Physics/Climate Sciences/Chemistry/Environmental Sciences (Salary: Rs 36,000 p.m. consolidate).
