(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Comparing the set of supergravity theories allowed by low-energy consistency conditions with the set of string vacua provides useful insights into quantum gravity and string theory. In fact, such a "landscape analysis" for ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)During the last decade the three interferometers of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) were built and commissioned. In fall 2005 design sensitivity was achieved, corresponding to a strain ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The ablation of solid pellets injected into high temperature magnetically confined plasmas is characterized by rapid oscillations in the ablation rate, and the formation of field aligned filaments in the ablatant. High ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In this thesis, I investigate aspects of local Hamiltonians in quantum computing. First, I focus on the Adiabatic Quantum Computing model, based on evolution with a time- dependent Hamiltonian. I show that to succeed using ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Twenty years of polarized lepton-nucleon scattering experiments have found that the contribution from quark spins (1/2[delta] [sigma]) to the spin of the proton is only ~ 35%. This has lead researchers to look elsewhere, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)We present the Inclusive Jet Longitudinal Double-Spin Asymmetry for polarized protons at \s = 200 GeV. The data were taken on the STAR experiment at RHIC during the 2005 run period and cover a jet transverse momentum range ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)To measure the regeneration of electron neutrinos during passage through the Earth via the MSW effect, the difference in electron neutrino flux between day and night is measured at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO). ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)This thesis presents theoretical and experimental results of the production of very high brightness electron beams using a 17 GHz photocathode RF gun. A beam brightness of up to 8x 1013 A/([pi]m rad)2 was measured for a 1 ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In this thesis we show how to calculate off-shell low energy effective actions and how to study the dynamics of the tachyon from string field theory. We discuss how to obtain an effective action for the massless field and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)There have been few measurements of cross sections for neutron-proton scattering and radiative capture below 1 MeV. Those measurements which do exist are at a small number of energies and are often inconsistent with ...
