A Measurement of the Leptonic Asymmetry in Top-Quark Pairs Produced in pp Collisions at s = 1:96TeV.
(2014)
The asymmetry in the charge-weighted lepton rapidity is measured in semileptonic top-quark-pair decays. The measurement is performed in data recorded with the CDF-II detector using the full Tevatron Run II sample, ...
Effects of Random Manufacturing Errors on the Performance of Contemporary Coherent Radiation Sources.
(2014)
The traveling wave tube (TWT) is a linear beam microwave vacuum electron device (MVED) and is a key element in telecommunication systems, satellite-based transmitters, military radar, electronic countermeasures, and ...
Ratcheting Up The Search For Dark Matter.
(2014)
The last several years have included remarkable advances in two of the primary areas of fundamental particle physics: the search for dark matter and the discovery of the Higgs boson. This dissertation will highlight some ...
Time-Resolved Studies and Nanostructure Formation in Sb2Te3 Films Using Femtosecond Lasers.
(2014)
Antimony telluride (Sb2Te3) is an important material with a wide range of applications in thermoelectrics, data storage devices and topological insulator research. Our work on femtosecond laser studies of Sb2Te3 films has ...
Numerical Study of Coronal Mass Ejections, Shocks, and Turbulence: from Chromosphere to 1 AU.
(2014)
My dissertation focuses on one of the major source of destructive space weather: coronal mass ejections (CMEs). By helping develop and utilizing a new data-driven global MHD model: The Alfven Wave Solar Model (AWSoM) in ...
Electrical Transport in Thin Film Systems for Energy Harvesting.
(2014)
Many energy conversion technologies rely on the properties of thin films. In many cases, the fundamental physics underlying the structure-property-performance interrelationship are not completely understood. So it is ...
Single-Molecule Microscopy Studies of Interactions between Alzheimer's Amyloid- (1-40) and Amyloid- (1-42) on the Membrane.
(2014)
Two amyloid-β peptides (Aβ40 and Aβ42) feature prominently in the extracellular brain deposits associated with Alzheimer’s disease. While Aβ40 is the prevalent form in the cerebrospinal fluid, the fraction of Aβ42 increases ...
