Albedos in the Kuiper Belt
(2009)
I have focused my research on the visual geometric albedos of transneptunian objects (TNOs), how the albedo varies with dynamical class, and whether or not it is correlated to orbital parameters. TNOs are among the ...
SPIN-ORBIT COUPLING EFFECTS IN InSb QUANTUM WELL STRUCTURES
(2009)
Indium antimonide (InSb) is a narrow band gap material which has the smallest electron effective mass (0.014m0) and the largest electron Lande g-facture (-51) of all the III-V semiconductors. Spin-orbit effects of III-V ...
Magneto-exciton and strain studies in indium antimonide quantum wells.
(2006)
The motivation for the exciton studies was based on interest in material characterization and study of the band structure of the InSb quantum wells. In this thesis, we have presented spectroscopic studies of InSb quantum ...

Constraining the composition and physics of active galactic nuclei with computer modeling.
(2007)
We present analysis from simultaneous FUSE, ASCA, and EUVE observations, as well as a reanalysis of archival HST spectra, from the extreme Narrow-line Seyfert 1 Galaxy RE 1034+39 (KUG 1031+398). RE 1034+39 has an unusually ...
NLTE synthetic spectra and light curves of type Ia supernovae.
(2000)
I have modeled the spectra of Type Ia supernovae with a detailed, non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) model atmosphere and radiative transport code, PHOENIX. I have modeled spectra of the normal, Type Ia supernova, ...
Fabrication and characterization of ordered arrays of nanostructures.
(2005)
In this thesis, a combination of bottom-up and top-down approaches is explored to fabricate ordered arrays of nanostrucutures. The bottom-up approach involves the growth of self-organized porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) ...
Search for magnetic monopoles possibly produced by proton-antiproton collisions at the Tevatron collider.
(2002)
Magnetic monopoles can be used to explain the quantization of electric charge, and are predicted by gauge field theory. If monopoles exist, they could have been produced by the proton-antiproton collisions at the Tevatron ...
Electrification and lightning in simulated supercell and non-supercell thunderstorms.
(2000)
Three parameterizations of a noninductive graupel-ice mechanism and various strengths of inductive graupel-droplet charging were tested. For a given storm type, the charge distribution and lightning produced by the different ...
Opposite side jet charge tagging and measurement of CP asymmetry parameter sin(2beta) at DO.
(2004)
This dissertation describes the first CP asymmetry parameter sin(2beta) measurement by the DO collaboration, sing the opposite side jet charge tagging algorithm in determining B-flavor. The time integrated measurement ...
