(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In this thesis, I present results from two Paul-trap based ion traps carried out in the Vuletić laboratory: the Atom-Ion trap for collision studies between cold atoms and cold ions, and the Cavity-Array trap for studying ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In this thesis we calculate the interaction potentials between two hadrons that are pinned in place on the lattice by infinitely heavy quarks. The potentials are calculated to leading order in the strong coupling and hopping ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Dark matter makes up approximately 22% of the energy density of the universe and as much as 83% of its matter composition. Despite its ubiquitous nature, it remains incredibly difficult to detect due to the weakness of its ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)We present results for optical measurements on charged CdSe nanocrystals. The injection of electrons into quantum confined states is confirmed by monitoring changes in the visible and infrared absorption spectra. Interestingly, ...

-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)We study the electromagnetic Casimir interaction of a metallic compact object with a compact and bounded metallic surface in which it is contained. We express the interaction energy in terms of the objects' scattering ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In this thesis, I will explore some of the ways the information-theoretic properties of quantum many-body systems can be analyzed. I do this in two different settings. First, I will describe an approach to the "scrambling ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)This thesis studies intersecting brane models, which are a class of quasi-realistic compactifications of string theory. Techniques are developed for exploring the complete space of intersecting brane models on an orientifold. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The advantages of elliptic (or sheet) beams have been known for many years, but their inherent three-dimensional nature presents significant theoretical, design, and experimental challenges in the development of elliptic ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)In this thesis, we present the results of studies of physical properties in three classes of novel carbon-based materials: carbon aerogels, single-walled carbon nanotubes, and high thermal conductivity graphitic foams. The ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)In this thesis, I investigate the static and dynamic properties of a granular heap made cohesive by an interstitial fluid. I present the results of experimental work measuring the maximum angle of stability and the angle ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)There is considerable controversy regarding the nature of the relationship between the superconducting and pseudogap states of high-temperature superconductors. Although there exist a large number of theories regarding ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The dynamics of asymmetric blobs is investigated in the Versatile Toroidal Facility (VTF) at MIT. Blobs are local regions of enhanced plasma density. Blobs are relevant to several areas of physics research, including fusion ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Experiments carried out with magnetically confined, high temperature plasmas have revealed important effects that have yet to be justified by existing theory. In particular, there arises an anomalous particle inflow in the ...
