(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In this thesis, I describe demonstration of various quantum information processing tasks using single-photon two-qubit (SPTQ) quantum logic. As an initial state of those tasks, I used various entangled photon pairs, and I ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Strongly correlated systems present interesting challenges in condensed matter physics. On the one hand, the theoretical work in the last two decades suggests that strong interactions may lead to new phases and phase ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)In this thesis we study corrections to parton showers in the context of soft collinear effective theory (SCET). Monte Carlo event generators like Pythia or Herwig are heavily used by experimentalists to simulate events and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)In this thesis, we show for the first time how it is possible to calculated fully from first-principles the diabatic free-energy surfaces of electron-transfer reactions. The excitation energy corresponding to the transfer ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)The main theme of this thesis is branes and orbifolds in string theory, with some digression towards other directions in the final chapters. After reviewing background material on D-branes and orbifolds, along with some ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In this dissertation I study some properties of field theories at finite temperature using the AdS/CFT correspondence. I present a general proof of an "inheritance principle" satisfied by a weakly coupled SU(N) (or U(N)) ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)We have investigated the use of two-photon induced spin excitation for applications to atom interferometry for lithography and rotation sensing. Our efforts have been grouped into two parts: theoretical study of schemes ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The accurate prediction of physical properties in the vast spaces of nanoscale structures and chemical compounds is made increasingly possible through the use of atomistic and ab initio computation. In this thesis we ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)A series of studies on atom-light interactions in ultracold anisotropic media were conducted. Methods to trap ultracold neutral atoms in novel traps with widely tunable trap frequencies and anisotropies were investigated. ...
