Sørby, Magnus Helgerud

PhD in Chemistry, University of Oslo in January 2005. Member of staff since January 2007.

Field of Expertise:
Hydrogen Storage. Focus on the use of powder diffraction techniques to investigate the crystal structure and hydrogen sorption behaviour of hydrogen storage materials.

• Peer-reviews:   2 for Journal of Alloys and Compounds (2006 and 2007), 1 for Acta Crystallographica B (2007) and 1 for The Journal of Physical Chemistry C (2009)
• Scientific review: The review paper “Pair Distribution Functions and Reverse Monte Carlo modelling of disordered metal hydrides” (M. H. Sørby, Zeitschrift für kristallographie 223, 617 (2008)) was written by invitation from guest editor Klaus Yvon to a special issue of Zeitschrift für kristallographie on hydrogen storage materials.
• Committees: Member of the evaluation committee for the PhD thesis of Ole-Erich Haas (NTNU, Trondheim) titled "Transport on a nanoscale; Quasi Elastic Neutron Scattering and Molecular Dynamics studies”. Will act as second opponent in the public disputation for the PhD degree April 2009.
