(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)There had been long-standing fundamental problems in the spectral studies of accreting neutron stars (NSs) in low-mass X-ray binaries involving the X-ray spectral decomposition, the relations between subtypes (mainly atoll ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)I analyze new phenomena arising from embedding active materials inside of photonic crystal structures. These structures strongly modify the photonic local density of states (LDOS), leading to quantitative and qualitative ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)As the first generation of laser interferometric gravitational wave detectors near operation, research and development has begun on increasing the instrument's sensitivity while utilizing existing infrastructure. In the ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)An overwhelming proportion of the universe (83% by mass) is composed of particles we know next to nothing about. Detecting these dark matter particles directly, through hypothesized weak-force-mediated recoils with nuclear ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)16 years and counting ... In 1986 Bednorz and Muller discovered the layered perovskite structure (La - Ba)2Cu04 which showed the phenomenon of superconductivity at the unprecedented high temperature of Tc = 33 K. In the ...
