comment: **Fixed term until 30 September 2025 (with the possibility for extension, subject to availability of funding).** The Department of Earth Sciences seeks a Postdoctoral Research Assistant (PDRA) to work as part of the ERC funded DEEP-MAPS project. The post holder will be responsible for carrying out experimental research on lower mantle phase transitions employing optical spectroscopy in combination with laser- heated diamond-anvil cells (DACs), as well as participate in synchrotron-based x-ray diffraction experiments. The post holder will focus on Brillouin Spectroscopy measurements on mantle minerals in the laser-heated diamond-anvil cell using a new VIPA spectrometer, with the aim to study lower mantle phase transitions and quantify their seismic signature. The post holder will also take active part in the group’s synchrotron experiments. The post holder will further provide guidance to less experienced members of the research group, in particular the PhD students within DEEP-MAPS and Master students. The post holder will be responsible for managing their own academic research and administrative activities, involving small scale project management to co- ordinate multiple aspects of work to meet deadlines. They will adapt existing and develop new scientific techniques and experimental protocols and test hypotheses and analyse scientific data from a variety of sources, reviewing and refining working hypotheses as appropriate. They will also contribute ideas for new research projects and collaborate in the preparation of scientific reports and journal articles and occasionally present papers and posters. **About you** You will hold, or be close to completion, of a relevant PhD/DPhil together and possess sufficient specialist knowledge in the discipline to work within established research programmes. You will have relevant experience in experimental high-pressure and/or high-temperature research. You will be able to manage you own academic research and have previous e…

Reporting to Prof. Hauke Marquardt, Professor of Earth Sciences Vacancy reference 168343 Additional information - Research topic Phase Transitions in the Lower Mantle Studied by Optical Spectroscopy and Time-resolved X-ray Diffraction Principal Investigator / supervisor Hauke Marquardt Project team Project web site Funding partner Recent publications https://www.earth.ox.ac.uk/people/hauke-marquardt/ The funds supporting this research project are provided by ERC Job description Overview of the role The post holder will be responsible for carrying out research on lower mantle phase transitions employing Brillouin Spectroscopy in the laboratory and time-resolved Synchrotron x-ray diffraction in (dynamic) diamond-anvil cells. The research is part of the ERC-funded project DEEP-MAPS. All major mineral phases of the Earth’s mantle undergo changes in their atomic or electronic structure with depth to adapt to increasing pressure (P) and/or temperature (T). Phase transitions are accompanied by substantial changes in physical properties. Phase transitions govern the seismic signature of Earth’s lower mantle and control large-scale dynamic processes. DEEP-MAPS employs novel, time-resolved, high-P/T methodology to map the locations of mantle phase transitions and physical property changes across them in P-Tcomposition-space. The data is employed to pinpoint the conditions of the deep mantle by comparison to seismic observations and to address major open questions in …
