(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)This project aims to reduce measurement uncertainty in atomic clocks by squeezing the collective spin of atoms. Spin-squeezing reduces noise below the standard quantum limit where precision scales as 1/ [square root of] ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This paper examines a new technique for measuring gas composition through the use of a spirometer. A spirometer is high precision pressure transducer which measures the speed of sound in a gas through the emission and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Oscillons are localized solutions of nonlinear field theories that oscillate without dissipation. We have numerically found a family of very long-lived oscillons the spherical ansatz of the SU(2) gauged Higgs model -the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Current understanding of the onset of plasticity during nanoindentation of crystalline materials involves homogenous dislocation nucleation in the crystal underneath the indenter. Through the use of cutting-edge nanoindentation ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)We perform extensive analysis on the physics of L-mode tokamak fusion reactors to identify (1) a favorable parameter space for a large scale steady-state reactor and (2) an operating point for a minimum scale steady-state ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)This work considers some implications of viewing gravity as an emergent force. In such a viewpoint, general relativity arises as the thermodynamic limit of some microscopic theory. As such, one would expect the macroscopic ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)This paper investigates classical and quantum mechanical models of superfluids and superfluid vortices using the Ginsburg Landau energy equation. Specifically, two types of superfluids are considered, ordinary superfluids ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Observations in the Earth's magnetotail and kinetic simulations of magnetic reconnection have shown high electron pressure anisotropy in the inflow of electron diffusion regions. This anisotropy has been accurately accounted ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Graphene is a single 2-dimensional atomic layer of hexagonally packed carbon atoms. Graphene has a unique combination of thermal, mechanical, and electronic properties, making it a useful tool for learning new physics as ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)The DarkLight experiment is searching for a dark force carrier, the A' boson, and hopes to measure its mass with a resolution of approximately 1 MeV/c 2 . This mass calculation requires precise reconstruction to turn data, ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Alpha background, specifically from radon and its progeny in the uranium and thorium chains, has been a major issue in dark matter detectors. This work focuses on alpha background presence in the DMTPC experiment by examining ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The BaBar experiment measures CP violation in the B meson system by analyzing the decays of B⁰B̄⁰ pairs in which one of the mesons decays into a CP eigenstate. By measuring the decay time distribution separately for B⁰ and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)We demonstrate a new isotope-selective system to measure low energy charge transfer collisions between ytterbium ions and atoms in the range of collisional energy from 2.2x 10-5 eV to 4.3x 10-3 eV, corresponding to effective ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)This thesis is the beginning of a larger project to use BaBar to examine weak couplings through leptonic [tau] decay. I will use the ratio of Br... and Br... and the Michel parameters [rho] and [eta]. which describe the ...
