Numerical investigation of the superfluid transition in low dimensions and in anisotropic systems
DownloadSpring 2023
The main theme of this thesis is the superfluid transition in reduced dimensions and in anisotropic and inhomogeneous systems. Using state-of-the-art computational methodology, we carry out large-scale, numerically exact computer simulations to study this topic, making use of classical and...

Numerical modeling of drift resonance and drift-bounce resonance between ultra-low frequency waves and energetic particles in the inner magnetosphere
DownloadFall 2018
The main topic of this thesis is the investigation of drift resonance and drift-bounce resonance between energetic particles and Pc3-5 Alfvenic ultra-low frequency (ULF) waves in the Earth's inner magnetosphere. We have developed numerical models to simulate how the dynamics of O+, H+ ions and...

The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (SNSM) in northern Colombia, is one of the highest coastal mountains in the world with a maximum height of more than 5.7 km. Geophysical measurements report that there is a high Bouguer gravity anomaly (>+130 mGal) in the region, indicating that the mountain does...

Numerical Simulations of Anelastic and Boussinesq Rotating Convection with Radial Entropy Gradient Boundary Conditions
DownloadFall 2017
Observations from the gas giants Jupiter or Saturn allow for researchers to construct geophysical fluid dynamical numerical models in an attempt to replicate the observed features. Most models aim at replicating the zonal jets and the eddies observed on these gas giants to understand how they are...

Numerical study of ionospheric response to perturbations and interaction with spacecraft instruments
DownloadSpring 2014
This PhD thesis presents numerical studies of the ionosphere dynamics and of the interaction between ionospheric plasma and spacecraft instruments. The main results of my research are the following: A first study presents a simple model to account for magnetic field perturbations in response to...

The electron-phonon interaction is one of the fundamental interactions in almost all condensed matter materials. In conventional superconductors, the electron-phonon interaction is the glue that attracts two electrons to one another to form a pair. A strong electron-phonon interaction leads to...
