Precision Cosmology with Inaccurate Data: Assessing and Addressing Systematic Errors in Large-Scale Structure
(2021)
Cosmology as a field has made rapid progress over the last 30 years, driven in large part by a massive increase in observational data. Large-scale structure (LSS) surveys have played a key role in this rise of `Precision ...
Precision Measurements of Higgs Boson Couplings in the Diphoton Decay Channel with Run-2 of the ATLAS Detector
(2021)
In the second run of the Large Hadron Collider, proton-proton collisions were recorded with the ATLAS detector at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, almost twice that of the previous run. This dramatic increase in energy ...
Organic Room-Temperature Phosphorescence Materials: from Fundamental Triplet Exciton Modulations to Novel Applications in Biosensing and Bioimaging
(2021)
Metal-free purely organic phosphors are an emerging class of room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials and have attracted great attention over the past decade, owning to their potentials in a variety of advanced ...
Reduced-Order Modeling of Turbulent Reacting Flows Using Inertial Manifold Theory
(2021)
Turbulent flows found in aerodynamics, propulsion, and other energy conversion sys- tems pose an inherent computational challenge for extensive predictive simulations. Over the last few decades, a statistical approach for ...
Light-Matter Interactions in Transition-Metal Dichalcogenides
(2021)
Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have recently become a very popular topic of research due to their wide range of novel optical properties. Many of these materials feature excitons with large oscillator strengths ...
Spatially Resolved Optical Measurements of Electron and Hole Spins in Monolayer Tungsten Diselenide
(2021)
The development of spintronics devices over the last 30 years has necessitated study into a large number of unique semiconductors. In the past 8 years, one emerging focus of study has been into two dimensional materials, ...
Search for the Rare Decay of the Neutral Kaon, KL-->?0??
(2021)
The KOTO experiment located at the J-PARC research facility in Tokai, Japan aims to to measure the branching ratio (BR) of the rare decay of the neutral kaon, KL-->pi0nunubar. This decay has a Standard Model (SM) predicted ...
Nonlinear Optical Effects in Weyl Semimetals and Other Strongly Correlated Materials
(2021)
The study of Weyl semimetals has been of interest since their first prediction in pyrochlore iridates in 2011 and their experimental discovery in TaAs in 2015. Since then, several classifications of Weyl semimetals have ...
Aural Architecture as Affect: Understanding the Impact of Acoustic Environments on Human Experience
(2021)
Architectural design plays a significant role in shaping human experience in buildings through the perception of space. However, architectural characteristics not only result in visual attributes that affect how the occupants ...
Modeling Dose-Function Response and Toxicity Pathways in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Undergoing Radiation Treatment
(2021)
Radiotherapy is currently the standard of care for treating NSCLC patients, and while technological advancements in the field continue to improve our ability to successfully treat these patients, serious side-effects, i.e. ...
