A generous gift by Mr. Paul M. Cook, ChemE'47 enabled the Institute to establish the professorship and support a junior faculty member with a strong interest in materials and chemical sciences in the Schools of Science and Engineering. Andrei s colleagues as well as students and staff, congratulate him on receiving this award. If you have a summer job or would like more information please contact Kenneth Wolff, the MIT TeenWork Coordinator in the Personnel Dept. at ext. 3-4278 or Dottie Purdy at ext. 3-4077 Postdoctoral Positions University of Minnesota , in the lab of Professor Don Truhlar has a postdoc position in theoretical chemical dynamics available.
Applicants are welcome.
Case Western Reserve University immediate opening for a postdoctoral position involving the theoretical modeling of kinetics and dynamics for barrierless reactions of importance in combustion chemistry. Please encouarge any suitable candidates to contact me via e-mail. A brief overall project description is provided below. We are especially interested in the development of methods for employing dividing surfaces which vary smoothly from a configurational based dividing surface to a phase space or energy dependent dividing surface. A final aspect of the project involves the combination of trajectory studies and master equation modeling in an effort to gain a better understanding of the effects of angular momentum on the pressure dependence of reaction kinetics.
