(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Transverse momentum (PT) distributions for pions, kaons, protons and antiprotons have been measured near mid-rapidity for Au+Au collisions at sNN = 62.4 GeV using the PHOBOS detector at the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In this thesis, I explore aspects of a new jet shape - N-subjettiness - designed to identify boosted hadronically-decaying objects (with a particular focus on tagging top quarks) at particle accelerators such as the Large ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In this thesis, I design and construct a Monte-Carlo gravitational lensing simulation that statistically studies the strong lensing of extended galactic sources by dark matter distributions in galaxy clusters, using recent ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The nature and behavior of electronic states in high temperature superconductors are the center of much debate. The pseudogap state, observed above the superconducting transition temperature Tc, is seen by some as a precursor ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)We image charge transport in the quantum Hall effect using a scanning charge accumulation microscope. Applying a DC bias voltage to the tip induces a highly resistive ring-shaped incompressible strip (IS) in a very high ...

-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)In this thesis, I designed and implemented a particle-in-cell (PIC) code on a graphical processing unit (GPU) using NVIDA's Compute Unified Architecture (CUDA). The massively parallel nature of computing on a GPU nessecitated ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)The axion is a hypothetical elementary particle and cold dark matter candidate. In this RF cavity experiment, halo axions entering a resonant cavity immersed in a static magnetic field convert into microwave photons, with ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)In this thesis, we perform the measurement of the production of W and Z bosons in proton-proton collisions at [the square root of]s = 7 TeV with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In the LHC, W and Z bosons are produced at ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The inclusive jet cross section, the dijet cross section, and the dijet longitudinal double spin asymmetry ALL in polarized proton-proton collisions at [square root of sigma] = 200 GeV are measured with a data sample of ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)A series of incoherent scatter radar (ISR) observation were conducted at the Arecibo Observatory from December 27, 2005 until January 3, 2006. From plasma line measurements that were taken during this radar campaign, we ...
