Evaluation of specialty fibers and waveguides for ultrashort laser pulse propagation
(2008-05)
Ultrashort pulse lasers have become invaluable tools in many areas of science and technology. Optical waveguide or fiber delivery of ultrashort pulses would benefit numerous applications that require remote location of the ...
Transport and resonances in kicked Bose-Einstein condensates
(2010-12)
Scope and Method of Study: A purpose of this research was to study the scaling behavior of resonances of a periodically kicked quantum system. Specifically, a model known as a quantum delta-kicked rotor (QDKR) was implemented ...
Development of optically stimulated luminescence dating techniques for application to terrestrial and martian studies
(2005-12)
Scope and Method of Study: Geological processes including aeolian and fluvial activity have shaped the surface of Mars. The temporal timescale on which these events have taken is place is important for understanding the ...
