Fall 2023
This thesis provides an investigation of various aspects of the major background in the SNO+ experiment and its associated detector. The initial chapters present an overview of neutrino physics and the SNO+ detector, providing relevant background information. The impact of light reflection on the...

A Measurement of Solar Neutrinos and the Development of Reconstruction Algorithms for the SNO+ Experiment
DownloadSpring 2022
This thesis presents a measurement of the flux of Boron-8 ($^8$B) solar neutrinos. The measurement is based on a dataset of 190.33 live days acquired during the SNO+ water physics commissioning. To analyze the data, an event reconstruction framework was developed to evaluate the orientation of...

Fall 2013
This thesis is concerned with a measure of perceptual aliasing in image descriptors. Perceptual aliasing occurs when the one-to-one mapping relations between world states (objects) and their representation (descriptors) are not maintained. Our method measures the discriminating power of an image...

A mathematical framework for expressing multivariate distributions useful in wireless communications
DownloadFall 2010
Multivariate statistics play an important role in performance analysis of wireless communication systems in correlated fading channels. This thesis presents a framework which can be used to derive easily computable mathematical representations for some multivariate statistical distributions,...
