Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) play a vital role in the discrimination of different cosmological models. These events have been shown to be standardizable based on properties of their light curves during the early-time photospheric phase....
ABSTRACT We calculate the associated production of a pseudoscalar (A) with a pair of heavy quarks at hadonic colliders, namely p pbar, pp →QQA + X for Q = b, t and X the remaining partonic interactions, including one-loop QCD corrections...
The Large Hadron Collider is pushing high energy physics in to a brand new territory. This extraordinary era may bring discoveries of unprecedented magnitude, delivering validation or extreme dissappointment to the physics theories of...
The 14C(14C, d) reaction at 22 MeV was used to study Tz=2 26Na. Charged particles were detected with a Si detector telescope at 0º, and γ transitions in coincidence were detected with an array of three Compton-suppressed "clover"...
Measurement of Polarization Observables in Vector Meson Photoproduction Using a Transversely-Polarized Frozen-Spin Target and Polarized Photons at CLAS, Jefferson Lab
The study of baryon resonances provides a deeper understanding of the strong interaction because the dynamics and relevant degrees of freedom hidden within them are reflected by the properties of the excited states of baryons. Higher...
One of the remaining puzzles in particle physics is the origin of electroweak symmetry breaking. In the Standard Model (SM), a single doublet of complex scalar fields is responsible for breaking the SU(2)L × U(1)Y gauge symmetry, thus...
Massive stars play a crucial role in the universe. Yet, our understanding of massive stars remains incomplete due to their rarity, short lifetimes, complexity of binary interactions, and imprecise Galactic distances. An important...
A search for new physics with a three photon final state has been performed using data from the Compact Muon Solenoid detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The integrated luminosity was 12.3 fb⁻¹ recorded in 2012 at centre-of-mass...
This dissertation reports the study of three nuclei ¹⁹O, ²⁹Al, and ²⁷Mg at high angular momentum using ɣ-ray spectroscopy. These experiments were performed at the John D. Fox Superconducting Linear Accelerator at Florida State University...
We describe a measurement in the top quark mass in tt production where the final state is 6 or more jets, which is otherwise known as the all-jets channel. The mass is extracted from 110.2 pb of data taken with the DØ detector at the...
In this dissertation, we introduce a new approach in building a hybrid nuclear model that combines some existing theoretical models and a \universal" approximator. The goal of such an approach is to obtain new predictions of nuclear...
Heavy stable charged particles (HSCPs) have been searched for at the Large Hadron Collider since its initial data taking in 2010. The search for heavy stable charged particles provide a means of directly probing the new physics realm, as...
Galaxy clusters are the largest gravitationally bound structures in the Universe, and they provide valuable insights into astrophysics and cosmology. One method of studying galaxy clusters - the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect - involves using...
