    • CASIMIR EFFECT: QUANTUM FLUCTUATIONS AND THERMAL FLUCTUATIONS 

      Li, Yang (2020-05-08)
      Any phenomenon caused by the nontrivial vacuum state of quantum fields in the presence of boundaries, nontrivial topology, varying background potentials, spacetime curvature, ect, could be referred to as a Casimir effect. ...
    • Casimir energies of cavities: The geometry question 

      Abalo, Elom (2012)
      The question of how the Casimir effect relates to a system's geometry is of fundamental interest. In this thesis, we present new results for interior Casimir self-energies of various integrable geometries and show interesting ...
    • Radiatively-driven Natural Supersymmetry 

      Mickelson, Daniel (2014-08-15)
      Within the framework of supersymmetric theories, a question arises: how can the W, Z, and h masses be so low (∼ 100 GeV) when the superpartner masses are so high (mSUSY > 1−2 TeV)? This is the little hierarchy problem, and ...
    • Rare decays of the Z° boson and the Pi^0 meson 

      Tupper, Gary Bruce (1984-07)
