STUDIES OF INFLUENCE OF ENERGY DISTRIBUTION ON THE UPPER ATMOSPHERE
(2015-11-30)The energy inputs into the upper atmosphere including both solar irradiation and geomagnetic energy can significantly change the upper atmosphere such as the neutral and plasma densities, velocities and temperatures. ... -
A Study Of Ejection Times Of Terrestrial Planets From The Habitable Zones Of The Solar Twins Hd 20782 And Hd 188015
(Physics, 2009-09-16)We provide a detailed statistical study of the ejection of Earth-mass planets from the habitable zones of the solar twins HD 20782 and HD 188015. These systems possess a giant planet that crosses into the stellar habitable ... -
Study Of Jet And Missing Transverse Energy Performance In Dijet Events With ATLAS Data
(Physics, 2012-04-11)The Large Hadron Collider(LHC) is the world's largest particle collider at CERN, Geneva, operating at a center of mass energy of 7 TeV . The Toroidal LHC Apparatus (ATLAS)is one of two general purpose detectors at the LHC. ... -
Study Of The Response Of The ATLAS Tile Calorimeter To Muons Produced In Sqrt(s) = 7 Tev Proton-proton Collisions At The LHC
(Physics, 2011-10-11)The purpose of this study is to verify the inter-calibration of the cells and uniformity of the Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) detector in the ATLAS experiment at CERN. The response using muons produced in proton-proton ... -
STUDYING THE OXYGEN EFFECT IN PROTON THERAPY VIA GPU-BASED MICROSCOPIC MONTE CARLO SIMULATION
(2020-08-10)Dissolved oxygen molecules are known to play an important role in radiotherapy. For example, tumor cells can be more radio-resistance under hypoxia than normoxia. There has been multiple hypothesis proposed to explain these ... -
Synthesis And Characterization Of Magnetic Nanoparticles
(Physics, 2007-08-23)Synthesis of uniform nanoparticles (<100 nm) of hard and soft magnetic materials have attracted much attention in the last two decades because of their unique magnetic properties and potential for many applications such ... -
The Synthesis And Luminescence Properties Of Lanthanide-based Nanoparticles For Biological Application
(Physics, 2008-09-17)Lanthanide-doped nanoparticles have great potential as a new kind of luminescent material. In this thesis, we report the synthesis of Cerium-doped LaF3 nanoparticles in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) using chemical reaction at ... -
Synthesis Of Cdte And Pbs Semiconductor Quantum Dots And Their Biological And Photochemical Applications
(Physics, 2010-07-19)Semiconductor quantum dots are inorganic nanoparticles with unique photophysical properties. In particular, water soluble quantum dots which have been synthesized by colloidal chemistry in aqueous environment are highly ... -
THE SEARCH FOR EXOMOON RADIO EMISSIONS
(2015-12-07)The field of exoplanet detection has seen many new developments since the discovery of the first exoplanet. Observational surveys by the NASA Kepler Mission and several other instrument have led to the confirmation of over ... -
Theoretical Study Of Electronic Properties Of The Cu(001) Surface Under Conditions Of High Coverage Oxidation
(Physics, 2009-09-16)The study of adsorption of oxygen on transition metal surface is important for the understanding of oxidation, heterogeneous catalysis, and metal corrosion. The structures formed on oxidized transition metal surfaces vary ... -
Tracking Stellar Activity Enhancements Due To A Close-in Giant Planet In The HD 179949 System
(Physics, 2010-07-19)We monitored CaII H and K lines (3933Å and 3968Å) of the HD 179949 system to study Planet Induced Emission (PIE) as an effect of star-planet interaction. We obtained high resolution spectra (R > 50,000) with high signal-to-noise ... -
Two-photon Optogenetic Stimulation Of Cells
(Physics, 12-15-2012)The controlled stimulation of cells, especially neurons, is of significant interest both for basic understanding of neuronal circuitry as well as clinical interventions. Existing electrode-based methods of stimulation ...
