(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, 2003)In part I of the Thesis charge ordering and transport in arrays of coated semiconductor nanocrystals (quantum dot arrays) are studied. Charge ordering in dot arrays is considered by mapping the electrons on the dots onto ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The transport theory of high-intensity elliptic charged-particle beams is presented. In particular, the halo formation and beam loss problem associated with the high space charge and small-aperture structure is addressed, ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Understanding the states in the vicinity of the Mott insulator is crucial to understanding both the physics of the transition between a Mott insulating phase and a metallic phase and the physics of the cuprate high-temperature ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)This thesis reports recent experimental studies of edge turbulence structure using gas-puff-imaging at high time resolution in a radially broad zone at the low-field-side of Alcator C-Mod[1], and highlights the connections ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)An upgraded phase contrast imaging (PCI) diagnostic is used to study turbulence and transport in Alcator C-Mod. The upgraded PCI system is capable of measuring density fluctuations with high temporal (2 kHz-5 MHz) and ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)In this thesis we will explore three approaches to aspects of the fundamental structure of string theory. We first provide a brief review of perturbative string theory, and briefly discuss how each of the three topics to ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This thesis concerns two classes of photonic crystal that differ from the usual solid-state dielectric photonic crystals studied in optical physics. The first class of unconventional photonic crystal consists of atoms bound ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)This thesis describes the demonstration of a new technique that allows masses to be compared with fractional uncertainty at or below 1 x 10-11, an order of magnitude improvement over our previous results. By confining two ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)We have improved the ability to compare the masses of single ions by an order of magnitude to a fractional accuracy of [approx.] 7 x 10-12. This is done by simultaneously confining two ions in a Penning trap, and simultaneously ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)We pose two key questions about color superconductivity: What are the effects of the large strange quark mass, and what are the observable consequences of color superconductivity? Motivated by the first question, we study ...
