A quantum computer is a proposed device which would be capable of initializing, coherently manipulating, and measuring quantum states with sufficient accuracy to carry out new kinds of computations. In the standard scenario, a quantum...
An interpretation of CMS searches for evidence of supersymmetry in the context of the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is given. It is found that supersymmetric particles with color charge are excluded in the mass range below...
The present theoretical framework to describe the universe in particle level, the Standard Model describes only 4% of the matter-energy budget of the universe. There are many theories which attempt to describe the universe beyond the...
Since the discovery of the exotic properties of graphene, two dimensional materials such as metal chalcogenides, transition metal oxides and other 2D compounds have gained renewed interest. Graphene, silicene, germanene, graphyne and...
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is a powerful tool to elucidate the structure and dynamics of membrane proteins and protein-lipid interactions. High magnetic fields increase EPR sensitivity and broaden its practice...
The origins of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) remain an unsolved problem of contemporary astrophysics. Decades of research indicate that these supernovae arise from thermonuclear runaway in the degenerate material of white dwarf stars;...
The production of direct photons in association with jets can be used to probe gluon parton distribution functions as well as to test perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics. This thesis presents the measurement of the triple differential...
The field of cryogenic electron microscopy (cryoEM) has greatly benefitted from improvements upon the integration of complementary structural determination methods and the development of high-throughput processing workflows aimed at...
As the discovery of quantum mechanics signified a revolution in the world of physics more than one century ago, the notion of a quantum computer in 1981 marked the beginning of a drastic change of our understanding of information and...
In this dissertation, we investigate the edge spin excitations and reconstructions of quantum Hall (QH) liquids. Edge spin reconstructions reflect the interplay of confining potential, electron-electron interaction, and Zeeman splitting...
Disorder can have a vast variety of consequences for the physics of phase transitions. Some transitions remain unchanged in the presence of disorder while others are completely destroyed. In this dissertation we study the effects of...
