Cold trapped positrons and progress to cold antihydrogen
A new physical mechanism for positron accumulation is explained and demonstrated. Strongly magnetized Rydberg positronium is formed and then ionized, allowing us to trap equal numbers of either positrons or electrons over a wide range of conditions. Antiprotons are trapped, cooled, and stacked from …

Cold Snap
<p>For my Master’s Thesis project, I will be writing an original piece of realistic fiction inspired by the “dirty realism” literary movement of the 20th century. This piece of fiction, at the end of these two semesters, will resemble a novella in length and style while focusing on execution and …

A cold fireplace
… the living and absent presence of my Dad. In A Cold Fireplace, I dream of a version of this house, one of broken chronology, where it is impossible to distinguish one year from another and time no longer separates the living from the dead. The show and writing titled A Cold Fireplace is centered …

Stone Cold Secrets
<p><em>Stone Cold Secrets</em> is a novel about a family that struggles to forgive each other for the secrets they have kept from one another. The story is based on a woman who gave away or sold her children after birth. The siblings meet each other as young adults and they try very hard to turn …

Cold, dense quark matter
This thesis discusses the properties of cold quark matter as exists in the core of massive neutron stars, with baryon densities several times of nuclear saturation density, n_0 ≈ 0.16 fm^-3, at zero temperature. Specifically, we study effective quark models, the symmetry pattern of different quark …

The Antimicrobial Activity of Cold Pressed Terpeneless Valencia Orange Oil at Cold Temperatures
… to prevent further antibacterial action. Cold pressed terpeneless Valencia orange oil was examined in combination with various temperatures (37°C, 10°C, and 4°C) to determine its antimicrobial activity against various strains of bacteria. The strains were tested using a ninety-six well …

Derby, Kansas: cold war boomtown
… War II America. With the beginning of the Cold War, however, the federal government began pouring money into the Midwest and West, building up existing, and constructing new, military installations. In addition, federal spending spurred massive new defense industries, creating growth around …

Photoassociative ionization in cold rubidium
… community are interested in the prospect of cold molecules for such applications as quantum computing and molecular Bose-Einstein condensates. Current methods of production fall short of the requirements for such projects. Photo association is a promising technique for forming cold molecules, …

Origins of the Cold War
… in global affairs today stems back to the Cold War, it raises the importance of specific instruction in the origins of the Cold War for today’s students. With the influence our nation possesses, and the integral role of citizenry that students will soon acquire as voters, this project …

QUANTUM TRANSPORT WITH COLD ATOMS
Cold atom technology poses a powerful platform to study the transport of quantum matter. The interaction between atoms, the type of atoms and their confinement can be designed to simulate quantum transport phenomena that are often difficult to realize within solid state devices. Recent advances in …

NECROBIOME SUCCESSION IN COLD CONDITIONS
<p>This research presents the findings from a study that involved assessment of the changes in the necrobiome reflected in muscle tissue samples collected from two human donors that were allowed to naturally decompose in differing temperatures over a six-month period. The research questions …

A cold strontium Rydberg gas
Cold gases of Rydberg atoms are an ideal system in which to study the novel effects of strong interatomic interactions. This thesis describes the design and construction of the world's first experiment to study Rydberg states in a cold gas of an alkaline earth metal, in this particular case …

Warm and cold atmospheric frontogenesis
Various differences and similarities of warm and cold frontogenesis are numerically modeled. The hydrostatic, adiabatic, Boussinesq primitive equations are integrated on a two dimensional grid. The frontogenesis is forced by an a1ong·front gradient of potential temperature and by a vertically …

Cold-start universal information extraction
… thesis opens up a new research direction called Cold-Start Universal Information Extraction, where the full extraction and analysis starts from scratch and requires little or no prior manual annotation or pre-defined type schema. In addition to this new research paradigm, we also contribute …

Microphysical Influences on cold pools
… convective clouds to the ground can produce cold pools, regions of air at the surface cooled by melting or sublimating ice and/or evaporation of rain within the downdrafts. These cold pools can propagate outward, sometimes initiating new convection along their leading edges. Models operating …

Optical excitations in cold gases
… interactions on the optical spectrum of cold gases. We first consider homogenous gas in the weak excitation regime and find that the optical spectrum of a system of Bosons is highly sensitive to interactions. We find that optical excitations, at temperatures low enough for the thermal de …

Sterile neutrinos in cold climates
Measurements of neutrino oscillations at short baselines contain an intriguing set of experimental anomalies that may be suggestive of new physics such as the existence of sterile neutrinos. This three-part thesis presents research directed towards understanding these anomalies and searching for …
