Renormalization-group studies of disordered magnetic systems, strongly correlated electonic systems, and polymeric systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Interaction of trapped ions with trapped atoms
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)
In this thesis, I present results from two Paul-trap based ion traps carried out in the Vuletić laboratory: the Atom-Ion trap for collision studies between cold atoms and cold ions, and the Cavity-Array trap for studying ...
Dynamics of an excess electron in water
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Topics in field theories in lower dimensions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Toward quantum opto-mechanics in a gram-scale suspended mirror interferometer
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
A new generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors, currently under construction, will closely approach the fundamental quantum limits of measurement, serving as a prominent example of quantum mechanics at ...
Specific heat of Sr₃CuPt₀₅Ir₀.₅O₆ below 1K
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Double spin asymmetry AL̳T̳ in charged pion production from deep inelastic scattering on a transversely polarized ³He target
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
In this thesis I discuss the first measurement of the beam-target double-spin asymmetry ALT for charged pion electroproduction in deep inelastic electron scattering on a transversely polarized 3He target. These data were ...
Studies of strong-field gravity : testing the black hole hypothesis and investigating spin-curvature coupling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
Observations of gravitational systems agree well with the predictions of general relativity (GR); however, to date we have only tested gravity in the weak-field limit. In the next few years, observational advances may make ...
Ultracold Fermi gas with repulsive interactions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
This thesis presents results from experiments of ultracold atomic Fermi gases with repulsive interaction. Itinerant ferromagnetism was studied by simulating the Stoner model with a strongly interacting Fermi gas of ultracold ...
Optimization of electrostatic binding free energy : application to barnase and barstar
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
