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...
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 identities of the progenitors of type Ia supernova (SN Ia) has long been under study and remains an unsolved problem of astrophysics. The answer to this question will impact cosmology and subfields such as galactic evolution. To help...
This dissertation is a theoretical and computational examination of structural, electronic and magnetic properties of complex transition metal oxide structures. Our work is motivated by experimental observations that transition metal...
This dissertation describes our research into the properties of the interstellar medium (ISM) through the lens of numerical magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulations. Our research explores the prob- ability distribution functions (PDF) of...
We introduce a new framework, NLOX, in which one-loop QCD and electroweak corrections to Standard Model processes can be automatically calculated. Within this framework, we calculate the first order of electroweak corrections to the...
At the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) at Jefferson National Laboratory (JLab), $\omega$ vector-mesons were photo-produced off a fixed, liquid-hydrogen target during the 2009 run-period via the reaction $\gamma p ...
Baryon and hybrid baryon wave functions were built from harmonic oscillator basis states with explicit flavor and color. The Relativized Constituent Quark Model was extended to calculate more baryon states. Improvements were made to the...
Semiconductor spintronics has been widely regarded as a viable pathway to overcome many limitations in the current microelectronics technology. Molecular spintronics, an emerging research area in spintronics, aims to incorporate the...
Precise knowledge of parton distribution functions (PDFs) is necessary to the accurate calculation of QCD observables initiated by hadrons. The deep inelastic scattering (DIS) and lepton pair production (LPP) processes are primary...
