(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)We investigate how the requirement that organic chemistry be possible constrains the values of the quark masses. Specifically, we choose a slice through the parameter space of the Standard Model in which quark masses vary ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)We present results on the evolution of Ly[alpha] absorption at low redshift, and the first systematic search for Si II absorption systems in the low redshift IGM. Our sample consists of 832 Ly[alpha] absorbers from 328 ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)We report on experimental observation of radiation-pressure induced effects in a high-power optical cavity. These effects play an important role in next generation gravitational wave detectors, as well as quantum non-demolition ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)This thesis presents our work on developing and improving the techniques of trapping and cooling an ultra-cold cloud of Lithium-7 atoms and the realization of the Bose- Einstein condensate as a first step to study quantum ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Astrophysical evidence indicates that 23% of our universe's energy density is in the form of nonluminous, nonbaryonic matter referred to as dark matter. One theoretically appealing dark matter candidate is the Weakly ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)In this thesis, I investigated the extent to which the inclusion of multiple scalar fields in models of Higgs inflation produces observable departures from the single field case. I designed simulations to numerically solve ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)We investigate the classic "inverse problem" of extracting collision and scattering cross sections from measurements of electron swarm behavior. A Monte Carlo technique for simulating electron motion through a gas of ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Quantum field theory is the most well-developed tool in theoretical physics to study about the dynamics at microscopic scales, with particles and quantum behaviors. In this thesis I'll review about the construction of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)We present the results of five Chandra observations of the normal galaxy NGC 3877. A total of 27 X-ray sources are detected, including SN 1998S. We find 15 sources to be variable during the 646-day period covered by the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)We continue the work of Abbate et al. in [1], in which a factorization formula for the thrust distribution in electron-positron collisions was developed in the framework of soft-collinear effective theory. We extend the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)We investigate the robustness with respect to the introduction of nonconformality of five properties of strongly coupled plasmas that have been calculated in K = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory at nonzero temperature, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)In this series of experiments, we add salt to a photoresist developer and observe the effect on photoresist contrast. In order to measure contrast, we designed an anti-reflection coating stack to reduce reflections between ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The hole-doped cuprate Bi ... is doped with lead to the solubility limit of x = 0.38 and studied using STM/STS in the overdoped regime where Tc < 2K. Despite the high lead content, residual supermodulations are observed ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)We present the P-matrix, an alternative method to parameterize the S-matrix, which is particularly useful for low energy meson-meson scattering. We discuss its basic properties and use it to analyze the isospin 0 and 2 ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)In this thesis, we wish to test the hypothesis that scattering by a random potential causes localization of wave functions, and that this localization is governed by the Born postulate of quantum mechanics. We begin with ...
