(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Over the past 20 years a new classes of optically active materials have been developed that are composites of nano-engineered constituents such as molecules, polymers, and nanocrystals. These disordered materials have ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)In this thesis, I develop an exclusive cone jet algorithm based on the principles of jet substructure and demonstrate its use for physics analyses at the Large Hadron Collider. Based on the event shape N-jettiness, this ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)The study of the transition region in the description of exclusive processes and hadron structure, from the nucleon-meson degrees of freedom in meson-exchange models at low energy to the quark-gluon degrees of freedom in ...
-
Exclusive search for Higgs boson to gamma-gamma decay via vector boson fusion production mechanism (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)We perform an exclusive search for the Higgs boson to gamma-gamma decay via vector boson fusion. We utilize the characteristic features of vector boson fusion, such as the di-jet [Delta][eta] and mass, as well as the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)In this thesis, I present new spectroscopic and photometric observations of WASP-3, a transiting extrasolar planetary system. From spectra obtained during two transits, I use the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect in a simplified ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)In this thesis, I theoretically studied exotic phases of matter than arise due to strong interactions between electrons in three different scenarios. Firstly, at a stripe melting phase transition, which may be relevant for ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)In this thesis, we estimate the sensitivity of Double Chooz, a reactor Ve --> Ve experiment, to detect "early" neutrino oscillations based on a three-active plus one-sterile, or (3 + 1), neutrino mixing model by implementing ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Kinesin is a motor protein capable of utilizing chemical energy from ATP hydrolysis to generate mechanical force to power its progressive motility along a microtubule track. The mechanism of motility has been a subject of ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)The amplitude modulated ordinary-mode reflectometer in the Alcator C-Mod tokamak is used to study the quasi-coherent (QC) continuous edge fluctuations in enhanced Da (EDA) H-modes. Reflectometer data show that the QC ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)In optical communications, two measures of efficiency are commonly at odds. The first is the photon information efficiency (in bits/photon) which measures the information that each detected photon conveys; the second is ...

An experimental evaluation of a free-floating superconducting solenoid as a low-level accelerometer (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1979)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental process in plasma physics, which involves the often explosive release of magnetically stored energy in both space and laboratory plasmas. In order for this sudden release of energy ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)This thesis reports the first high power tests of a hybrid photonic band gap (PBG) accelerator structure. PBG structures can support a single electromagnetic mode, thus damping higher-order modes (HOMs) generated by ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Magnetic reconnection is an important and prevalent plasma physics phenomenon occurring in astrophysical (solar flares), space (magnetospheric substorms), and laboratory settings (tokamak sawtooth oscillations). It allows ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Photonic band-gap (PBG) structures are promising candidates for electron accelerators capable of high-gradient operation because they have the inherent damping of high order modes required to avoid beam breakup due to ...
