(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)The research presented herein is a theoretical investigation of the formation, evolution, and ultimate fate of low-, intermediate-, and high-mass X-ray binaries (L/I/HMXBs). The primary theoretical tool used throughout is ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This thesis details the motivation, design, construction, and testing of the Gamma Intensity Monitor (GIM) for the Crystal-Barrel-Experiment at the Universität Bonn. The CB-ELSA collaboration studies the baryon excitation ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In this thesis, we propose and investigate the "Gapless Color-Flavor Locked" (gCFL) phase, a possible new phase of dense and cold quark matter. At high enough densities, quarks interact with each other and form pairs ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The gas electron multiplier (GEM) is a novel charge amplification element for use in gaseous particle detectors. Because of their high gain ([approx.] 10⁵ when cascaded) and ability to withstand harsh radiation conditions, ...

Generation of fiber-coupled, nondegenerate, polarization-entangled photons for quantum communication (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The production of polarization-entangled photon pairs from spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) enables many applications of quantum information processing. In this thesis, we use type-0 phase-matched downconversion ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The Neutralized Transport Experiment (NTX) has been built at the Heavy Ion Fusion Virtual National Laboratory. NTX is the first successful integrated beam system experiment that explores various physical phenomena, and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Clocks are generally considered as quintessential examples of accurate and precise devices. Biological clocks however, are continually subjected to intracellular and extracellular fluctuations that might reduce the fidelity ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)(cont.) more general lessons on frustrated quantum magnetism. At the end, we demonstrate some new mathematical tools on two other frustrated two-dimensional systems, and summarize our conclusions, with an outlook to remaining ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)Helical ribbons with pitch angles of either 11⁰ or 54⁰ self-assemble in a wide variety of quaternary surfactant-phospholipid/fatty acid-sterol-water systems. In all of the systems studied, the thermodynamically stable state ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Actin polymerization plays a critical role in generating propulsive force to drive many types of cell motility. The discovery of actin based motility of the bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes has lead to clearer ...
