Spring 2023
Centennial, millennial and multi-millennial scale climate cycles have been observed in paleoclimate proxies distributed globally. Examples of these cyclical climate cycles include oscillations with periods of ~2.3, ~1.5, ~1, and ≤0.5 thousand years (kyr) in the Quaternary. In the Neogene, longer...

Improvements to the resolution and efficiency of the DEAP-3600 dark matter detector and their effects on background studies
DownloadFall 2010
The Dark matter Experiment using Argon Pulse-shape discrimination will be a tonne scale liquid argon experiment to detect scintillation light produced by interactions with weakly interacting massive particles, leading dark matter candidates. The detector will be constructed out of acrylic and use...

In quest of improved nanomechanical sensitivity at larger damping and applications in ambient conditions
DownloadFall 2019
In the current state-of-the-art, a wide variety of devices, from computer clocks to smartphone accelerometers and from pressure gauges to atomic force microscope sensors, rely on mechanical resonators, either in microscale or nanoscale. Nanoscale mechanical resonators have even more potential...

In Situ Measurement of the IceCube DOM Efficiency Factor Using Atmospheric Minimum Ionizing Muons
DownloadFall 2019
The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a large scale neutrino detector embedded deep within the Antarctic ice located at the geographical South Pole. It instruments over one cubic kilometre of ice with 5,160 Digital Optical Modules (DOM), each of which houses a 10 inch diameter photomultiplier tube...

In-Situ Seismic and Ex-Situ Laboratory Analysis from Expedition 364: Chicxulub Impact Basin Peak Ring Hole M0077a
DownloadSpring 2022
Although craters with central peak ring morphology are common throughout the solar system, intact examples are rare terrestrially. The central rebound in complex craters is attributed to compressional rebound, but the mechanism that causes these uplifts to form a peak ring above a certain...
