The Isotope physics group operates the Vienna Environmental Research Accelerator (VERA), an internationally well-established facility for accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). Extending the AMS method to isotopes previously impossible to measure with a 3MV-accelerator is an important research activity.The VERAcore facility provides easy access to the state-of-the-art technology available at VERA to address highly demanding interdisciplinary research questions. The goal is to utilise VERA for AMS in a collaborative manner i) within the University of Vienna, ii) for Austrian customers and iii) beyond in international partnerships. Preference will be given to candidates with a special focus on scientific support for sample selection and preparation, AMS analysis and the interpretation of radioisotope position is initially limited to four years, with the option of a permanent contract subject to a positive evaluation of the University of Vienna Core Facility “VERAcore” in the fourth year.Active participation in AMS-measurements for interdisciplinary research as well as in teaching and administration. Responsibility for support of external and student users.Participation in research projects / studies.International publications and teaching of courses according to the collective agreement.Participation in research administration.
