Predictions regarding the excited baryon spectrum provided by symmetric quark models called Constituent Quark Models (CQMs) show good agreement with experimental measurements in the low-energy region (less than ≈ 1.8 GeV). The mass...
The photoproduction of ω mesons and π0 ω meson pairs is studied with the intention of providing data which will be useful in isolating baryon resonances. The data used for this analysis was recorded using the CBELSA/TAPS experiment in...
This dissertation encompasses an optical spectroscopic study of the temperature and magnetic field dependence of two magnetic materials with significant electron-electron correlation: antiferromagnetic MnTiO3 and frustrated spin-dimer...
In this dissertation, the use of on-chip superconducting (SC) resonators as a probe of spin-photon interactions as well as other superconducting phenomena will be presented. In particular, coherent Rabi oscillations are demonstrated for...
This thesis starts with a pedagogical introduction to the study of white dwarfs and neutron stars. We will present a step-by-step study of compact stars in hydrostatic equilibrium leading to the equations of stellar structure. Through...
The CBELSA/TAPS experiment at the electron accelerator ELSA, in Bonn, Germany, was used in order to study the photoproduction of neutral pions off the proton with a linearly polarized photon beam; Neutral pions were reconstructed through...
We describe a model of general two-to-two-body and two-to-three-body hadronic reaction based on a phenomenological Lagrangian approach that satisfies two-body unitary and is relativistic. This model is used to study πη photoproduction....
Results are reported of a search for a deviation in the jet production cross section from the prediction of perturbative quantum chromodynamics at next-to-leading order. The search is conducted using a 7 TeV proton-proton data sample...
The semileptonic decays of heavy baryons, ΛQ and ΩQ are treated in the framework of a constituent quark model. Both nonrelativistic and semirelativistic Hamiltonians are used to obtain the baryon wave functions from a fit to the spectra, ...
Organic systems provide the opportunity to study physics in lower dimensions. Rather than interactions between atomic sites, organic systems are comprised of molecules with the general shape of flat bricks. The stacking of these bricks...
Measurement of Polarization Observables in γ[over rightarrow]p[over rightarrow] → pπ⁺π⁻ Using Circular Beam and Longitudinal Target Polarization and the CLAS Spectrometer at Jefferson Laboratory
The study of baryon resonances offers a deeper understanding of the strong interaction, since the dynamics and relevant degrees of freedom hidden within them are reflected by the properties of the excited states of baryons. Higher-lying...
