(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1954)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Superconducting quantum circuits (SQCs) are being explored as model systems for scalable quantum computing architectures. Josephson junctions are extensively used in superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)This thesis details a measurement setup and experimental procedures for emittance measurements using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. We calibrate the FTIR measurement system using measurements of a blackbody ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)In my thesis project, I worked on the Thermal Model for the FGT detector. The purpose of this thermal model is to simulate the cooling system for the electronics of the FGT. In this thesis report, I go over the construction ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Hydrogen is considered a good energy carrier candidate for future automotive applications because of its high abundance and its potential role in a carbon-free cycle. The high gravimetric and volumetric storage capacities ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Ultracold atoms of 7Rb were prepared in a mixture of two hyperfine states, F 1, mF = -1 > and 2, -2 >. This two-component system was then studied in the presence of a magnetic field gradient and an optical lattice. The ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)We begin by presenting some results of studying certain axially symmetric super- gravity geometries corresponding to a distribution of BPS D6-branes wrapped on K3, obtained as extremal limits of a rotating solution. The ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment is a tritium beta decay experiment designed to make a direct, model independent measurement of the electron neutrino mass. To accomplish this task, the experiment employs ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis is focused on the theoretical characterization of topological order in non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states. The first part of the thesis is concerned with the ideal wave function approach to FQH ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)This study is concerned with the percentage of [gamma]-rays of a certain energy having their energy correctly measured by a high purity Germanium [gamma]-ray detector. The ratio between the total counts and the counts ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Rapidly and reliably recognizing an object (is that a cat or a tiger?) is obviously an important skill for survival. However, it is a difficult computational problem, because the same object may appear differently under ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)This thesis describes experiments with ion traps constructed with electrodes in a single two-dimensional plane, and ion traps operated in a cryogenic environment at 77K and 4K temperatures. These two technologies address ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)This thesis reports the achievement of a two-species apparatus for use in an upcoming experiment with fermionic ultracold atomic gases. First, we describe the construction of a laser system capable of cooling and trapping ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)A variety of fundamental and technical noise sources impact the ability of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) to directly detect gravitational radiation. Noteworthy examples include Newtonian ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Quantum bang-bang control is a method of suppressing decoherence in qubits [VKL99, VL98]. To date, mathematically rigorous treatments of quantum bang-bang control offered little intuition. To complement existing approaches ...
