Searches for a high-mass Higgs-like diboson resonance in the H-->WW-->lvqq decay channel using pp collisions at both sqrt(s) = 8 and 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC
(2016-08-16)
This work presents two searches for a high-mass Higgs boson in the H-->WW-->lvqq decay channel using the ATLAS detector to analyze the high-energy proton-proton collisions provided by the Large Hadron Collider at two ...
Baryogenesis Scenarios for Natural Supersymmetric Particle Physics Models
(2019-12-06)
Supersymmetric models with radiatively-driven electroweak naturalness require a light higgsino of mass ∼ 100 − 300 GeV. Naturalness in the QCD sector is invoked via the Peccei-Quinn (PQ) axion leading to mixed axion-higgsino ...
Topics on the Scalar Casimir Effect
(2010)
Recently the Casimir effect has been getting more popular because of
Applications of Diatomic Molecules
(2015-05-08)
I present a study and application of diatomic molecules to various uses in the laboratory. It begins with an experiment to trap ultracold nitric oxide, then proceeds to multiple experiments where tellurium is utilized to ...
Hot Electrons and Radial Transport in Saturn’s Inner Magnetosphere: Modeling the Effects on Ion Chemistry
(2012)
The E-ring of Saturn, located just beyond the main rings at four Saturn radii, was known to be made mostly of water and its by-products before the Cassini spacecraft arrived at Saturn in 2005. Since then, Cassini has ...
Spectrum Formation at Late Times in Type Ia Supernovae
(2015-05-08)
I present a study of radiative transfer effects in type Ia supernovae ranging from 3-4 months to nearly 2 years post-maximum light. I explore several components of spectrum formation, beginning with a semi-analytic model ...
Time-Dependent Quantum Reactive Scattering in Hyperspherical Coordinates
(2013)
We present a time-dependent hyperspherical, wave packet method for calculating three atom state-to-state S-matrix elements.
Co-Spatial UV-Optical HST/STIS Spectra of Seven Galactic Planetary Nebulae: Nebular and Stellar Properties
(2017)
This project had two main goals: (1) to investigate to what extent planetary nebulae (PNe) are chemically homogeneous; and (2) to provide physical constraints on the central star properties of each PN. The first goal was ...
OBSERVATION OF SINGLE TOP QUARK WITH ASSOCIATED Z BOSON PRODUCTION AT THE LARGE HADRON COLLIDER USING THE ATLAS DETECTOR
(2019)
The Standard Model of particle physics is the most well tested theory in modern physics.
It provides the most fundamental description of the natural world using only a handful of particles and their interactions.
At ...
Supersymmetry and the Prisoner of Naturalness
(2017-07-27)
In this work, I will address three concerns of supersymmetry. The first is the notion of naturalness and how much fine-tuning exists in a model. Historical measures, ∆ HS and ∆ BG , have led to an over estimate of the ...
