Transport Properties of Divertor Edge Plasmas Measured with Multi-Spectral Imaging
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2024-05)The transport of heat and particles in the boundary of a tokamak is not sufficiently understood for the purposes of constructing a pilot nuclear reactor. Improving numerical and theoretical understanding is inhibited by ... -
Entanglement and Chaos in Quantum Field Theory and Gravity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2024-05)In this thesis we explore several questions at the intersection of quantum information theory and quantum many-body physics. We study properties like entanglement and chaos, and we use intuition from discrete, few-body ... -
Illuminating the Cosmos: dark matter, primordial black holes, and cosmic dawn
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2024-05)The Λ-CDM model of cosmology has done much to clarify our picture of the early universe. However, there are still some questions that Λ-CDM does not necessarily answer; questions such as what is the fundamental nature of ...
