Spring 2023
The study of energetic particles of solar and cosmic origin, and those accelerated in the planetary magnetopause, is integral to our developing understanding of the physical processes affecting space radiation in near-Earth space, interplanetary space, and Earth's upper atmosphere. In particular,...

When a photon experiences a change in momentum of any form, be it being absorbed or reflected from a surface, the photon will exert a force upon that material. This force is called the radiation pressure force. One way that we can harness this radiation pressure force is to couple optical and...

Detailed Study of Atomic Silicon Dangling Bond Charge State Dynamics on the Surface of Hydrogen Terminated Silicon (100)–2 × 1
DownloadFall 2015
Atomic Silicon Dangling Bonds (DBs), which are natural quantum dots, are sites where silicon atoms on a hydrogen-terminated silicon surface have no bound hydrogen atom (leaving an un-reacted sp3 hybrid orbital). These DBs hold the promise of new ultra-low power devices based on the Quantum...

Spring 2020
Seismic events or earthquakes occur due to stress perturbations in the sub-surface and are related to the generation of new faults or reactivation of pre-existing faults. Completeness of an earthquake catalogue is critical for gaining a better understanding of sub-surface processes and this can...

Detection of Clandestine Tunnels using Seismic Refraction and Electrical Resistivity Tomography
DownloadSpring 2012
The detection of clandestine tunnels is a major issue along the U.S.-Mexico border. These tunnels provide access to illegal transportation of drugs, weapons, and people. This study tests the use of high resolution seismic refraction techniques and electrical resistivity tomography to detect...
