Reliable Microsecond-Scale Distributed Computing

Athanasios Xygkis

The landscape of computing is changing, thanks to the advent of modern networking equipment that allows machines to exchange information in as little as one microsecond. Such advancement has enabled microsecond-scale distributed computing, where entire dis ...

Backreaction of electromagnetic fields and the Schwinger effect in pseudoscalar inflation magnetogenesis

Oleksandr Sobol

We study magnetogenesis in axionlike inflation driven by a pseudoscalar field phi coupled axially to the electromagnetic (EM) field (beta/M-p)phi F-mu nu(F) over tilde mu nu with dimensionless coupling constant beta. A set of equations for the inflaton fie ...

A New Engineering Model of Lightning M Component That Reproduces Its Electric Field Waveforms at Both Close and Far Distances

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Quanxin Li

We present a new engineering model for the M component mode of charge transfer to ground that can predict the observed electric field signatures associated with this process at various distances, including (a) the microsecond-scale pulse thought to be due ...

Attosecond coherent control of free-electron wave functions using semi-infinite light fields

Fabrizio Carbone, Ivan Madan, Enrico Pomarico, Giovanni Maria Vanacore, Gabriele Berruto, Brett Eugene Barwick

Light–electron interaction is the seminal ingredient in free-electron lasers and dynamical investigation of matter. Pushing the coherent control of electrons by light to the attosecond timescale and below would enable unprecedented applications in quantum ...

Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping in the Human Brain

Diana Khabipova

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers a good tissue contrast and the ability to visualize many disease related morphologies. The work presented in this thesis investigates the study of underlying structure of the brain using quantitative methods with a s ...

The Lyman alpha reference sample IV. Morphology at low and high redshift

Hakim Atek

Context. The transport of Ly alpha photons in galaxies is a complex process and the conditions under which Ly alpha photons manage to escape from certain galaxies is still under investigation. The Lyman alpha reference sample (LARS) is a sample of 14 local ...

Probing Rotational and Translational Diffusion of Nanodoublers in Living Cells on Microsecond Time Scales

Aleksandra Radenovic, Sylvie Roke, Carlos Alberto Macias Romero, Vitalijs Zubkovs, Marie Eve Pascale Didier, Fabrizia Dutto

Nonlinear microscopes have seen an increase in popularity in the life sciences due to their molecular and structural specificity, high resolution, large penetration depth, and volumetric imaging capability. Nonetheless, the inherently weak optical signals ...

Hydrodynamic and subdiffusive motion of tracers in a viscoelastic medium

László Forró, Sylvia Jeney, Elena Bertseva

We investigate the diffusive motion of micron-sized spherical tracers in a viscoelastic actin filament network over the time span of 8 orders of magnitude using optical-tweezers single-particle tracking. The hydrodynamic interactions of a tracer with the s ...

Brownian motion studied with an optical trap

Branimir Lukic

This thesis describes measurements of Brownian motion of a colloidal particle using optical trapping. Two aspects are investigated: (i) influence of inertial effects on Brownian motion, and (ii) effect of the optical trap on Brownian motion. The first part ...
