▼ Structural rearrangements within single molecules
occur on ultrafast time scales. Many aspects of molecular dynamics,
such as the energy flow through excited states, have been studied
using spectroscopic techniques, yet the goal to watch molecules
evolve their geometrical structure in real-time remains
challenging. By mapping nuclear motions using femtosecond x-ray
pulses, we have created real-space representations of the evolving
dynamics during a well-known chemical reaction and show a series of
time-sorted structural snapshots produced by ultrafast
time-resolved hard x-ray
scattering. A computational analysis
optimally matches the series of
scattering patterns produced by the
x-rays to a multitude of potential reaction paths. In so doing we
have made a critical step toward the goal of viewing chemical
reactions on femtosecond timescales, opening a new direction in
studies of ultrafast chemical reactions in the
gas-phase.

▼ Quantum mechanics provides a conventional theory of
scattering that is limited in
at least two ways: it focuses exclusively on the asymptotic regime and, in a more general
sense characteristic of all quantum descriptions, provides no concrete account of individual
particle evolution in spacetime. This is particularly true during the interaction. Along
with a review of the conventional theory – both formal and interpretive – we introduce
tools, such as Bohm's trajectory approach, that allow us to extend and sharpen our
description of
scattering events. Once the tools are developed and proven using a very
simple toy model we apply them to the more realistic case of the Yukawa potential.
The corresponding non-asymptotic probability densities, trajectories, differential cross
sections, etc. are all considered. Bracketing the work we have also included a contextual
discussion of the qualitative issues – such as concerning the role of theory, interpretation,
and pedagogy – that necessarily accompany any theoretical extension of conventional
topics.

▼ The thermal neutron
scattering cross sections of ZrHx are heavily affected by the solid frequency distributions, also called ???phonon spectra???, of Zr and H in ZrHx. The phonon spectra are different for ZrHx with different x. While current reference data files, e.g. ENDF, are based on the spectra of ZrH_(2). This may induce unnegligible errors in the simulations for TRIGA reactor. We, therefore, proposed parameterized phonon spectra that can explore the effects of changing the spectra by varying the parameters. For example, we can shift the phonon positions in the spectra. The ul- timate goal of this type of work is to calibrate appropriate parameter sets to improve the simulation accuracy via comparing the simulation results and experimental data.
In this thesis, a code has been developed to process the thermal
scattering data for transport codes to use. Inputs of the code are basically the proposed parameters. The accuracy of the code processing Legendre moments of scatteirng was demonstrated. NJOY and MCNP were used to carry out the data processing and neutronic simulations, respectively. The phonon spectra were generated with the parameters produced in Latin Hypercube sampling designs. Quantities, like reactivity (??), fission rate density (FRD), neutron mean generation time (??), fuel temperature feedback coefficient (??Fuel), effective delayed neutron fraction (??eff ) and ex-core detector material absorption rate (Rabs), were analyzed. Analyses indicate that ??, ?? and ??Fuel are sensitive to the variations of parameters. Explicit relationships were established for those quantities and the parameters. However, FRD and Rabs is insensitive to any parameters. ??eff are sensitive to the parameterized models, however, no explicit relationship could be built due to the unrecognized nonlinearities.
Ongoing work will perform these analyses for the state near critical. Furthermore, time-dependent behavior could be investigated and when combined with experimental data the reasonably accurate phonon spectrum models and therefore S (??, ??) tables for the TRIGA reactor at Texas A&M University would be produced.

▼ This thesis is concerned with computation of
tree-level
scattering amplitudes through
scattering equations and
derivation of soft theorems from them. Additionally, mapping of
scattering amplitudes to conformal correlators on the celestial
sphere is considered. We use the Cachazo-He-Yuan (CHY)
scattering
equations based formula which describes an n-point tree level
scattering amplitude for gravitons in arbitrary dimension to prove
the recently proposed sub-sub-leading soft-graviton theorem.
Furthermore, we investigate the tree-level S-matrix in gauge
theories and open superstring theory with several soft particles.
We show that
scattering amplitudes with two or three soft gluons of
non-identical helicities behave universally in the limit, with
non-trivial multi-soft factors. We also find new soft theorems for
double soft limits of scalars and fermions in Super-Yang-Mills and
double-soft-scalar limits in open superstring theory. Subsequently,
we derive a CHY type formula for the leading gluon, bi-adjoint
scalar, Yang-Mills-scalar and non-linear sigma model m-soft factors
S_m in arbitrary dimension. The general formula is used to evaluate
explicit examples for up to three soft legs analytically and up to
four soft legs numerically via comparison with amplitude ratios
under soft kinematics. A structural pattern for gluon m-soft factor
is inferred and a simpler formula for its calculation is
conjectured. We develop a polynomial reduction procedure that
transforms any gauge fixed
scattering equations based amplitude
integrand for n
scattering particles into a multivariate polynomial
of what we call the standard form, which has finite size at any n.
Subsequently, at tree and one-loop level, we employ the global
residue theorem to derive a prescription that evaluates any
scattering equations based amplitude by means of collecting simple
residues at infinity only. The prescription is then applied
explicitly to some tree and one-loop amplitude examples. Pasterski,
Shao and Strominger have recently proposed that massless
scattering
amplitudes can be mapped to correlators on the celestial sphere at
infinity via a Mellin transform. We apply this prescription to some
n-point tree-level gluon amplitudes. The Mellin transforms of MHV
amplitudes are given by generalized hypergeometric functions on the
Grassmannian Gr(4,n), while generic non-MHV amplitudes are given by
more complicated Gelfand A-hypergeometric functions.

Cluster Polylogarithms and Scattering Amplitudes.

▼ Scattering amplitudes have undergone considerable
study in the last few years. Much of the progress has come from
abandoning Feynman diagram techniques and instead exploring and
exploiting the physical constraints and mathematical structures
underlying amplitudes. In this dissertation we present a new,
unexpected structure underlying certain amplitudes: cluster
algebras. Harnessing the power of cluster algebras allows us to
calculate previously unknown amplitudes and points the way towards
a deeper mathematical understanding of quantum field theory. We
begin by introducing motivic amplitudes, which contain all of the
essential mathematical content of
scattering amplitudes in planar
N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We then establish, through
explicit calculations of the two-loop, seven-particle motivic
amplitude as well as the n-particle two-loop differential, that the
amplitude only depends on on certain preferred coordinates known in
the mathematics literature as cluster X-coordinates on Conf
n(P
3).
The connection between
scattering amplitudes and cluster algebras
prompts us to define cluster polylogarithm functions, objects which
elegantly (and uniquely) contain beautiful motivic and cluster
algebraic structure. In particular, cluster polylogarithms allow us
to associate specific polylogarithm functions to faces of
generalized associahedrons, to which cluster algebras have a
natural combinatoric connection. These functions form a sufficient
basis to express two-loop amplitudes, and we present an analytic
formula for the two-loop seven-particle amplitude as an example.
Furthermore, we find intriguing connections between motivic
amplitudes and the geometry of associahedrons. For example, we show
that the obstruction to the two-loop motivic amplitude being
expressible in terms of classical polylogarithms is most naturally
represented by certain quadrilateral faces of the appropriate
associahedron.

Cluster Bootstrap in N=4 Super-Yang-Mills Scattering

▼ Amplitudeologists are interested in the general
mathematical properties exhibited by amplitudes, asking questions
like; which variables do planar N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills (SYM)
amplitudes depend on? and what properties are common to all
multi-loop and non-maximally helicity violating (MHV) amplitudes?
Currently, we look at the analytic results of amplitudes calculated
by alternative techniques and use newly developed mathematical
tools to learn more about the properties hidden in the current
formulation. Just like a change of variables can make certain
symmetries more obvious, expressing the currently known amplitudes
in alternative mathematical languages may uncover unknown
symmetries that play an essential role. By exploiting the
mathematical structure and developing tools which make amplitude
properties manifest, we may be able to write down analytic
functions for processes too complex to be calculated with modern
techniques.
Scattering amplitudes in planar super-Yang-Mills theory
satisfy several basic physical and mathematical constraints,
including physical constraints on their branch cut structure and
various empirically discovered connections to the mathematics of
cluster algebras. The power of the bootstrap program for amplitudes
is inversely proportional to the size of the intersection between
these physical and mathematical constraints: ideally we would like
a list of constraints which determine
scattering amplitudes
uniquely. We explore this intersection quantitatively for two-loop
six- and seven-point amplitudes. We reformulate the heptagon
cluster bootstrap to take advantage of the Steinmann relations,
which require certain double discontinuities of any amplitude to
vanish. These constraints vastly reduce the number of functions
needed to bootstrap seven-point amplitudes in planar N = 4 SYM
theory, making higher-loop contributions to these amplitudes more
computationally accessible. In particular, dual superconformal
symmetry and well-defined collinear limits suffice to determine
uniquely the symbols of the three-loop next-to-maximally helicity
violating (NMHV) and four-loop MHV seven-point amplitudes. We also
show that at three loops, relaxing the dual superconformal (Qbar)
relations and imposing dihedral symmetry (and for NMHV the absence
of spurious poles) leaves only a single ambiguity in the heptagon
amplitudes.

Techniques for computing scattering amplitudes: Mellin

▼ Scattering Amplitudes in maximally supersymmetric
gauge and gravity theories are remarkable objects which hold the
key to understanding many interesting mathe- matical structures in
these theories. In this dissertation we study various techniques
for computing
scattering amplitudes. In the AdS/CFT duality
paradigm, the computation of CFT correlation functions via Witten
diagrams in AdS space can be simplified via the Mellin transform.
Recently a set of Feynman rules for tree-level Mellin space
amplitudes has been proposed for scalar theories. In this thesis we
derive these rules for the scalar φ^n theory and check their
behavior under the flat space limit. Next, we explore single and
multi-loop conformal integrals, such as the ones appearing in
perturbative dual conformal theories in flat space. Using Mellin
amplitudes in this context, a large class of higher loop integrals
can be written as simple integro- differential operators on star
integrals: one-loop n-gon integrals in n dimensions. We explore the
geometric origin of such integrals and study specific non-trivial
examples including their relation to higher loop integrals. We
study N = 4 Super Yang-Mills(SYM) tree level
scattering amplitudes
and explore inverse soft limit idea of “adding a particle to lower
point amplitudes". Using it we generate full tree-level
superamplitudes of N = 4 SYM theory, by adding “soft" particles in
a certain way. With the help from Britto-Cachazo-Feng-Witten
recursion relations, a systematic and concrete way of adding
particles is determined recursively. The method of generating
amplitudes by Inverse Soft Limit can also be generalized for
constructing form factors. We also study the application of
non-trivial relations between gravity tree amplitudes, the bonus
relations, to all tree-level amplitudes in N = 8 supergravity. We
show that the relations can be used to simplify explicit formulae
of supergravity tree amplitudes, by reducing the known form as a
sum of (n − 2)! permutations to a new form as a (n −
3)!-permutation sum. We demonstrate some specific examples and then
provide a general pattern of bonus coefficients for all tree-level
amplitudes.

▼ Acoustical backscattering from randomly rough infinitely long elastic cylinders surrounded
by a fluid medium is examined. The cylinder radius is allowed to vary along
its lengthwise axis creating one-dimensional rotationally symmetric roughness. Using
recently published rough cylinder formulations [T.K. Stanton, J. Acoust. Soc.
Am., 92, 1641-1664 (1992) and T.K. Stanton and D. Chu, J. Acoust. Soc. Am., 92,
1665-1678 (1992)], explicit expressions are derived for the backscattered field for
a laboratory pulse-echo environment: spherically spreading directional source and
receiver with arbitrary beam patterns. Efficient numerical integration algorithms
are developed to solve for the backscattered field from a specified surface profile.
Experimental measurements from dense elastic (stainless steel) cylinders immersed
in water are presented to quantitatively illustrate the effects of small scale surface
roughness (δs/a = 0.0131 where δ is the surface rms roughness and a is the mean
cylinder radius) for 4.5 < ka < 70 where k is the acoustic wavenumber. The actual
target surface profile is well described and used as an input in the numerical simulations.
Agreement is found between measurements and simulation predictions both
in the mean field levels and the field fluctuations over a wide range of frequencies.

▼ RESUMEN: Definir los parámetros de polarización de la luz procedente de una muestra aporta una mayor información sobre las propiedades de ésta que la simple medida de la intensidad luminosa difundida. Cuando un haz luminoso sufre una perturbación debida a cualquier interacción con un medio, los campos electromagnéticos del haz incidente y el del haz emergente, expresados en términos de los parámetros de Stokes, pueden ser relacionados mediante la denominada matriz de Mueller. En este aspecto, el conocer la evolución de los parámetros de dicha matriz del sistema, nos permitiría definir cómo se comporta éste frente a la luz incidente. Para tal objetivo, se ha puesto a punto un polarímetro dinámico basado en técnicas de Transformada de Fourier, que permite determinar con una sola medida los 16 elementos de la matriz de Mueller. Ésta nos mostrará los cambios sufridos por la polarización del haz incidente debido a su interacción con una muestra problema.
Aplicando el método de Descomposición Polar, se puede ver que cualquier sistema puro, con matriz de Mueller M, responde a la siguiente relación: M=R*D, donde R y D simbolizan las matrices de Mueller de un medio Retardador ideal y de un medio Diatenuador ideal, respectivamente. En una versión extendida de éste teorema, teniendo en cuenta que no todos los medios son ideales, sino que hay medios en los que aparecen efectos de despolarización, la descomposición de la matriz de Mueller daría lugar a: M=Z*R*D, tomando Z como la matriz de Mueller de un sistema despolarizante. De esta forma, utilizando algebra matricial, podemos descomponer la matriz de un sistema problema, en matrices de menor complejidad, con un estricto sentido físico.
Partiendo de éstos resultados teóricos, y por medio del uso del polarímetro dinámico para la caracterización polarimétrica de los sistemas, se han analizado muestras de diversos tipos: superficies planas microestructuradas, para evaluar el efecto de la composición, tamaño e interacción; suspensiones de micropartículas y nanopartículas en coloide, para caracterizar su tamaño y composición; y sustancias quirales en medios turbios (en éste aspecto, recientemente ha sido demostrada la validez de éste método para el análisis in situ de tejidos biológicos). Asimismo, se han caracterizado componentes ópticos y polarimétricos por transmisión y reflexión, demostrando la validez del método. Finalmente se han llevado a cabo simulaciones computacionales a fin de estudiar patrones de comportamiento en sistemas complejos por medio del método de Descomposición Polar.

▼ In this thesis the proton radius puzzle will be described and used to motivated the MUSE experiment. An overview of the requirements for the systematic uncertainties for the experiment will then be presented, specifically the critically important understanding of the PiM1 magnetic channel. We will show that MUSE understands its systematic uncertainties well enough to have a competitive measurement of ep and μp elastic scattering. We will also show that the momentum of the μ’s and π’s can be measured to within 0.3% relative uncertainty for all MUSE momenta. By demonstrating our understanding of the source sizes and properties of the magnetic channel we also conclusively show that we understand the e momentum. The magnetic channel is simulated by two independent codes and it will be shown that MUSE understands how all particle types traverse the channel.

▼ Raman, or inelastic, scattering and angle-resolved
elastic scattering are two
optical processes that have found wide
use in the study of biological systems. Raman
scattering
quantitatively reports on the chemical composition of a sample by
probing molecular vibrations, while elastic scattering reports on
the morphology
of a sample by detecting structure-induced coherent
interference between incident
and scattered light. We present the
construction of a multimodal microscope platform
capable of
gathering both elastically and inelastically scattered light from
a 38 μm2 region in both epi- and trans-illumination geometries.
Simultaneous
monitoring of elastic and inelastic scattering from a
microscopic region allows
noninvasive characterization of a living
sample without the need for exogenous
dyes or labels. A sample is
illuminated either from above or below with a focused
785 nm TEM00
mode laser beam, with elastic and inelastic scattering collected
by two separate measurement arms. The measurements may be made
either simultaneously,
if identical illumination geometries are
used, or sequentially, if the
two modalities utilize opposing
illumination paths. In the inelastic arm, Stokes-shifted
light is
dispersed by a spectrograph onto a CCD array. In the elastic
scattering collection arm, a relay system images the microscope’s
back aperture
onto a CCD detector array to yield an angle-resolved
elastic scattering pattern.
Post-processing of the inelastic
scattering to remove fluorescence signals yields
high quality
Raman spectra that report on the sample’s chemical makeup.
Comparison
of the elastically scattered pupil images to
generalized Lorenz-Mie theory
yields estimated size distributions
of scatterers within the sample.
In this thesis we will present
validations of the IRAM instrument through
measurements performed
on single beads of a few microns in size, as well as on
ensembles
of sub-micron particles of known size distributions. The benefits
and
drawbacks of the epi- and trans-illumination modalities are
also discussed. In addition,
transilluminated Raman and
elastic-scattering spectra were obtained from
several biological
test-cases, including Streptococcus pneumoniae, baker’s yeast,
and
single human immune cells. Both the Raman and elastic-scattering
channels
extract information from these samples that are well in
line with their known
characteristics from the literature.
Finally, we report on an experiment in which
CD8+ T lymphocytes
were stimulated by exposure to the antigens staphylococcal
enterotoxin B and phorbol myristate acetate. Clear chemical and
morphological
differences were observed between the activated and
unactivated cells, with the
results correlating well to analysis
performed on parallel samples using fluorescent
stains and a flow
cytometer.

▼ This research is concerned with acoustic
scattering from rough, elastic interfaces. The primary results of this dissertation consist of acoustic
scattering measurements coupled with environmental characterization. Acoustic data from a sea trial in April 2011 that took place in the Oslofjord, Norway near Larvik were used to estimate the
scattering cross section, and probability of false alarm. The data were obtained from high-frequency, high-resolution interferometric synthetic aperture sonar system. Since the acoustic system has not been calibrated, an effective calibration of this sonar was performed based on a natural feature with estimated roughness and a valid
scattering model.
The seafloor around Larvik, Norway consists of glacially-eroded outcrops of rock, which possesses both very rough and very smooth roughness characteristics. These outcrops have been characterized in terms of their elastic properties based on previously measured mineral composition. Their roughness characteristics were measured during the a field experiment conducted in May 2013. A stereo photogrammetry system was designed and built for the purpose of obtaining high resolution roughness measurements. These height field measurements are used to form power spectrum estimates, which were used calibrate the acoustic system. Statistical characterization of facet sizes and orientations were used to motivate numerical modeling.
For the very rough areas on the rock outcrops, no analytic approximate
scattering model is valid. Connections between surface parameters, and trends in the
scattering cross section and probability of false alarm were made using the boundary element method. Surface roughness measurements were used to motivate several surface generation methods that approximate a glacially quarried rough surface. Through numerical parametric studies, hypotheses for the relationship between the scattered field and rough interface were established.

Time-Domain Electromagnetic Scattering by Objects Moving Uniformly at Relativistic Speeds.

▼ The
scattering of electromagnetic signals by an object in uniform translational
motion may be computed with the frame-hopping method. Frame hopping uses
results from the special theory of relativity and has four steps: (i) define the electric
and magnetic fields of the incident signal in the laboratory reference frame K',
(ii) express the electric and magnetic fields of the incident signal in the object’s
co-moving reference frame K using a Lorentz transformation, (iii) compute the
electric and magnetic fields of the scattered signals in K, and (iv) express the fields
of the scattered signals in K' using another Lorentz transformation. Relativistic
effects must be considered when the object moves at an appreciable fraction of the
speed of light in free space c.
Because the fields of the scattered signals are computed in the object’s rest frame
in Step (iii), any analytical or numerical method for computing signals scattered by
stationary objects may be used. The rest values of the object’s relative permittivity
and permeability must be used in Step (iii). Signals scattered by homogeneous
and concentrically layered spheres may be computed using the Lorenz–Mie series
solution. For objects which do not have analytical solutions–such as disks, rods, and
more complex objects like spacecraft–numerical techniques must be used. The finite-difference
time-domain (FDTD) method is particularly suitable for computation
of time-domain scattered signals. FDTD requires only one simulation to compute
the scattered signals, unlike frequency-domain methods which require a separate
computation for each frequency component of the incident signal.
In contrast to time-harmonic plane waves, which have infinite duration, pulsed
plane waves have limited duration and finite energy density. Thus, total energy
scattering, energy absorption, and energy extinction cross sections with units of
area may be defined as the ratio of the total energy scattered, absorbed, and
removed from the incident signal by a
scattering object to the energy density of
the incident signal. The energy extinction and energy absorption cross sections
are Lorentz invariant, but the total energy
scattering cross section is not. The
forward-
scattering theorem therefore applies only to objects at rest.
Electromagnetic signals scattered by a uniformly translating object at relativistic
speeds depend in general on the object’s size, shape, orientation, composition, and
velocity, as well as on the incident signal. The duration of scattered signals may be
much longer than the duration of the incident signal. The incident signal imparts
energy to the object, which the object may then slowly radiate over a period of
time. The energy extinction cross section of an object may be greatly increased
(decreased) if the Doppler effect moves the spectrum of the incident signal toward
(away from) localized surface plasmon or localized surface phonons in K. In general,
the total energy
scattering, energy absorption, and energy extinction cross sections
in K' go to zero when the object…

▼ We are constantly exposed to radiation in some form or another from our environment. High frequency electromagnetic radiation, including ultraviolet light and X-rays, cause damage to living organisms due to ionization events. Microwaves are known to cause heating and may also induce non-thermal effects in living organisms. It is therefore important to distinguish between thermal and non-thermal effects of microwave radiation and provide evidence for their biological effect. In this thesis we use light scattering to show that microwaves have a non-thermal functional effect on a protein complex called microtubules, which are biological nanotubes that stretch for several microns in length in eukaryotic cells. We also use X-ray scattering to measure whether or not microwaves cause a structural perturbation to microtubules in solution. Finally, this thesis examines the potential of coherent diffractive imaging at an X-ray free electron laser for single-particle imaging of biological fibres, including microtubules.

▼ Notions of topology are of considerable interest currently in physics, especially in the way topology influences the electronic properties of crystalline solids. This thesis concerns the experimental investigation of four different magnetic materials, which have been predicted to display a strong interplay between magnetism and the topology of the electronic band structure. I demonstrate that EuCd2Sb2, below TN= 7.4 K, displays an A-type anti-ferromagnetic order on the Eu sub-lattice with a magnetic propagation vector of k=(0,0,1/2). I also establish that the C3 rotational symmetry along the crystal c axis (essential for the stabilisation of band crossings called Dirac nodes) is broken by the in-plane orientation of the Eu moments. Following the initial discoveries of crystalline solids which can host topologically-protected band crossings called Weyl nodes, there is now a need for better material realisations, ideally comprising a single pair of nodes located at or very close to the Fermi level and in an energy window free from other overlapping bands. I propose that EuCd2As2, in a magnetic field of B >1.6 T along the c axis, to be such a system. This material is of general interest as it represents the simplest possible Weyl semimetal, and is therefore a model system for fundamental investigations of Weyl physics. I refute the proposition that semimetallic YbMnBi2 hosts Weyl nodes induced by the time-reversal symmetry breaking mechanism. Furthermore, the full magnetic excitation spectrum of YbMnBi2, which has been mapped for the first time, demonstrates that the magnetic order of the Mn sub-lattice is weakly coupled to the charge carriers in the Bi square net. Finally, the complex magnetic order of the Mn sub-lattice in Mn3Ge has been elucidated for the first time. This will shed light on the origin of the large anomalous Hall effect in Mn3Ge, which is unusual for an antiferromagnet.

Electrical Engineering. Advisor: P. Paul Ruden. 1 computer file
(PDF); vi, 34 pages.
Graphene has long been known for its peculiar
Dirac-like band structure which lends it many of its remarkable
properties. It is a promising material for electronic and
spintronic applications due to its high carrier mobility, low
intrinsic spin-orbit interaction and small hyperfine coupling.
However, extrinsic effects may easily dominate intrinsic
mechanisms. The scattering mechanisms investigated here are those
associated with non-magnetic, charged impurities in the substrate
(e.g. SiO2) beneath a planar n-type graphene layer. Such impurities
cause an electric field that extends through the graphene and has a
non-vanishing perpendicular component. Consequently, the impurity,
in addition to the conventional spin-conserving scattering can give
rise to spin-flip processes. The latter are a consequence of a
spatially varying Rashba spin-orbit interaction caused by the
electric field of the impurity in the substrate. This work focuses
on the calculation of the elastic scattering cross-sections for
these mechanisms. Additionally, relaxation times are estimated for
assumed impurity concentrations.

▼ Introduction. The vision is the most fundamental and the most complex sense in the evolution progress. Although, the complete process of the visual function has not been fully understood, there are several essential factors take part in the vision. The optics of the eye, the retina, and the visual cortex should be considered as a complete structure while evaluating the visual performance. The interaction between the light and the structures of the eye determine the quality of the retinal image which is the key factor for the visual performance.Two different interaction mechanisms of the light and the eye exists. The first mechanism is the optical interactions, which is detailed as optical properties of the eye and the second mechanism is detailed as the material properties of the eye. It is very important to understand and distinguish the difference between these two mechanisms. In order to have the good vision or in other words good retinal image quality, having the best refraction is as important as having transparent optics and clear optical way.Amount of the irregularities or defects induce straylight in the eye. Although, effects of intraocular scattering exist for ages and observed in the clinical practice, the knowledge and understanding of the intraocular scattering is not as good as the understanding of the refraction or aberrations. We believe that a complete analysis of visual performance will only be completed with analyzing the intraocular straylight. In this thesis, a novel optical device for measuring forward intraocular scattering with double pass method is developed and results are shown. The relevant chapters focus on several studies which worked on measuring, quantifying and understanding of the straylight phenomenon.MethodsThe proof of concept, repeatability, functionality of the device was tested with either in test or clinical conditions. The first study on the proof and concept and constancy evaluations were performed on an artificial eye and previously documented lenses. The straylight difference were evaluated of the artificial eye between different hard contact lenses which induce different amount of straylight. The second study was performed with an artificial eye for determining the effect of defocus on the measurements. The measurements were collected by changing the position of the retina which was corresponding inducing myopia or hyperopia. Additionally, the repeatability and the effect of axial alignment of the pupil camera was tested by taking consecutive measurements from the different axial positions from a healthy eye of a subject. In the third study, the scattering difference between healthy subjects and the effect of different diffusing filters which induce straylight were measured. Measurements with and without lenses and were evaluated.The final studies were performed under clinical conditions with healthy subjects and cataract patients. Optical and psychophysical measurements were performed as well as the LOCS III grading in these studies. Correlation between two methods of…

▼ This thesis incorporates 4 years of work: it gives a small introduction to the �eld
of
scattering amplitudes and especially into the method of generalized unitarity
then discuss 4 di�erent projects all in the �eld of
scattering amplitudes.
First we will look at a duality between correlation functions in a special lightlike
limit and Wilson loops in N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills. The duality, originally
suggested by Alday, Eden, Korchemsky, Maldacena and Sokatchev, was part of an
e�ort to put a �rmer footing on the duality between
scattering amplitudes and
Wilson loops.
The duality between correlation functions and Wilson loops does not have any
regularization issues (like the other duality) as both have infrared divergences in the
speci�c limits considered. We show how the duality works vertex-by-vertex using
just Feynman rules. The method is su�ciently general to allow for extensions of the
original duality including operators not taking part in the special light-like limit,
other types of operators as well as other theories than N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills.
After that we look at how to use generalized unitarity for correlation functions
with some examples from N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills. For computations one needs
quantities known as form factors which have both asymptotic states like
scattering
amplitudes and local operators like correlation functions. We compute several form
factors using modern methods from
scattering amplitudes.
Thirdly, we study how to use generalized unitarity for two-dimensional integrable
systems. Two-dimensional systems have their own unique set of challenges
but generalized unitarity can be adapted to them and we show how one can carry
out tests of integrability which would otherwise be di�cult.
Finally, we look at the 3-dimensional theory known as ABJ(M). Its tree-level
amplitudes can be incorporated into a single formula very reminiscent of a result
in N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills. Since the result from N = 4 Super-Yang-Mills follow
directly from a twistor string theory it is natural to guess that something similar
could be true for ABJ(M). We construct a twistor string theory that after a certain
set of projections give us the ABJ(M) formula.

▼ We present precision measurements of quantum
scattering phase shifts through a series of Feshbach resonances. Using an atomic fountain clock, we scatter ultracold cesium atoms in a coherent superposition of the clock states off target atoms in all the other F, m
F states. Excluding the forward
scattering and detecting only scattered atoms with velocity sensitive Raman transitions, we measure Ramsey fringes with a phase shift that is the difference of the clock states' s-wave quantum
scattering phase shifts for
scattering off of the target atoms. We measure the magnetic field dependence of this differential phase shift and our low spread in collision energy yields phase variations of order ± π/2 through a series of narrow Feshbach resonances. We evaluate and correct for a number of systematic errors, including those from an interference between the scattered and incident atoms waves,
scattering from states populated through inelastic collisions, and a cold collision frequency shift. Our phase shift measurements give a precise picture of cesium interactions, which in turn is expected to reduce the current uncertainty of the ultracold collision frequency shift for laser-cooled space clocks and could also lead to stringent limits on the time variation of fundamental constants.

▼ Cellular viability represents whether a cell is
performing normal functions, relating to intracellular energy
synthesis. Accurately quantifying the cellular viability would
facilitate novel studies on how pathological environments affect
the functioning of cells in various diseases. Nevertheless,
technologies for monitoring the cellular viability in live tissue
models are currently lacking. This study aims at testing a recently
developed technology, which integrates dynamic light
scattering and
optical coherence tomography (called DLS-OCT), to image the
cellular viability with single-cell resolution. DLS analyzes
fluctuations in light scattered by particles to measure diffusion
or flow of the particles, and OCT uses coherence gating to collect
light only scattered from a small volume for high-resolution
structural imaging. Integrating the two technologies, DLS-OCT
constructs high-resolution diffusion coefficient and flow velocity
3D maps. It is known that the motion of intracellular organelles,
often called intracellular motility, resembles a random walk in the
confined cytoplasm space, thus it can be quantified by the
diffusion coefficient. Since the intracellular motility is
correlated with the cell’s metabolism level, the diffusion
coefficient map of DLS-OCT is expected to enable us to image the
cellular viability. Here, the DLS-OCT imaging of cellular viability
was validated by characterizing responses of the measured
intracellular motility to the environmental conditions such as the
temperature and pH, in animal retinal explant samples. First, we
characterized our new OCT system and optimized scanning sequences
and processing procedures for DLS-OCT data, to match the dynamic
range of our DLS-OCT measurement with the typical range of
intracellular motility. Both numerical simulation and phantom
experiments were performed for optimization. Second, methods
required for animal retinal explant experiments were established,
and DLS-OCT data from retinal tissue while manipulating the
cellular viability were acquired and analyzed, to test the
technical hypothesis that DLS-OCT-measured intracellular motility
of neurons significantly diminishes when the cellular viability
levels are out of the physiological ranges. Similar operations were
performed to tissue spheroids with additional morphological
measurements. As a result, we measured individual cells’
healthiness for tempered conditions, which will enlighten studying
cells’ healthiness during disease progress or therapeutic treatment
in stroke, epilepsy, and Alzheimer’s disease among
others.

▼ A transmission matrix (TM) describes the linear relationship between input and output when a coherent wavefront passes through a
scattering medium. Measurement of the TM enables numerous applications, such as focusing light and image reconstruction. However, measuring TM continues to be very challenging due to its large dimension. The state-of-the-art methods, including phase-shifting holography and double phase retrieval, require significant amounts of measurements, and the subsequent data processing is often slow and computationally intensive. In this thesis, we propose a solution for transmission matrix recovery, called 3PointTM, that uses a minimal number of measurements per pixel for TM recovery. As a result, 3PointTM reduces the measurement budget by a factor of two, as compared to phase-shifting holography. This enables the acquisition of TMs at high resolutions and with low computational complexity. We validate our approach on both real and simulated data, and in particular demonstrate focusing of light and image reconstruction on dense
scattering media in high SNR settings at 4X reduced complexity.

▼ Thesis Ph. D. Michigan State University. Department of Physics 2013.
The universal way to probe a physical system is to scatter a particle or radiation off the system.The results of the scattering are governed by theinteraction Hamiltonian of the physical system and scattered probe. An object of the investigation can be a hydrogen atom immersed ina laser field, heavy nucleus exposed to a flux of neutrons, or space-time metricperturbed by the stress-energy tensor of neutrino flux in the early Universe. This universality of scattering process designates the {\it Scattering Matrix}, defined as the unitary matrix of the overlapping {\it in} and {\it out} collision states, as the central tool in theoretical physics.In this Thesis we present our results in atomic physics, nuclear physics, and cosmology. In these branches of theoretical physics the key element that unifies all of them is the scattering matrix.Additionally, within the scope of Thesis we present underlying ideas responsible for the unification of various physical systems.Within atomic physics problems, namely the axial anomaly contribution to parity nonconservation in atoms, and two-photon resonant transition in a hydrogen atom, it was the scattering matrix which led to the Landau-Yang theorem, playing the central role in these problems. In scattering problems of cosmology and quantum optics we developed and implementedmathematical tools that allowed us to get a new point of view on the subject.Finally, in nuclear physics we were able to take advantage of the target complexity in the process of neutron scattering which led to the formulation of a new resonance width distribution for an open quantum system.

▼ Graphene has long been known for its peculiar Dirac-like band structure
which lends it many of its remarkable properties. It is a promising material for
electronic and spintronic applications due to its high carrier mobility, low intrinsic
spin-orbit interaction and small hyperfine coupling. However, extrinsic effects
may easily dominate intrinsic mechanisms. The scattering mechanisms
investigated here are those associated with non-magnetic, charged impurities in
the substrate (e.g. SiO2) beneath a planar n-type graphene layer. Such impurities
cause an electric field that extends through the graphene and has a non-vanishing
perpendicular component. Consequently, the impurity, in addition to the
conventional spin-conserving scattering can give rise to spin-flip processes. The
latter are a consequence of a spatially varying Rashba spin-orbit interaction
caused by the electric field of the impurity in the substrate. This work focuses on
the calculation of the elastic scattering cross-sections for these mechanisms.
Additionally, relaxation times are estimated for assumed impurity concentrations.

▼ El rápido avance en métodos de micro- y nanofabricación, tanto teórica como experimentalmente, han hecho posible a día de hoy que podamos controlar el flujo de luz con una precisión sin precedentes. Los metamateriales y las metasuperficies son nanoestructuras compuestas a partir de celdas unidad dise˜nadas, de forma que permitan manipular la luz con una respuesta estipulada. Como resultado de esto, los metamateriales han proporcinoado un gran número de posibles aplicaciones nuevas que antes eran inconcebibles. En esta Tesis Doctoral nos hemos centrado en el uso de estos metamateriales excepcionales para conseguir, específicamente, partículas indetectables y también para controlar el modelado de haces de luz. El objetivo principal de esta Tesis es proponer nuevas estructuras fotónicas basadas en metamateriales multicapa metal-dieléctricos que, gracias a su alta anisotropía de forma, son capaces de generar distribuciones de luz altamente localizadas, así como respuestas ópticamente inertes en el campo lejano. Hemos analizado el mecanismo para conseguir la cancelación de la dispersión en nanopartículas con simetría cilíndrica. Es posible ajustar con gran precisión la cancelación de la dispersión a diferentes longitudes de onda para conseguir invisibilidad si tenemos un control preciso tanto de la morfología como de la combinación apropiada de los materiales. Por otro lado, teniendo un dise˜no adecuado de metarrecubrimientos de tama˜no alrededor del nanómetro, podemos conseguir una fuerte focalización de ondas electromagnéticas con gran apertura numérica. Además, dado un campo convergente estos metarrecubrimientos pueden aumentar de forma significativa la apertura numérica. Es más, usando las metasuperficies dise˜nadas se puede moldear el haz para transformar ondas convergentes de gran angular en haces acelerados que presevan su forma. El trabajo que hemos llevado a cabo no se limita exclusivamente a desarrollos basados en fundamentos teóricos y simulaciones numéricas, sino que también nos involucramos en tareas experimentales. Siguiendo esta dirección, estudiamos las ondas de superficie de Dyakonov (DSWs), que se pueden encontrar en la interfase entre un medio birrefringente y otro isótropo. La excitación ocurre en el campo cercano bajo fotoluminiscencia, y la prueba de la existencia de las DSWs se basa en la determinación experimental de su constante de propagación compleja, cuya parte imaginaria es significativamente menor que la encontrada tanto en modos guiados como en leaky modes.

▼ Low observable technology is used in order to prevent detection, or to delay detection. Radar cross section is an important parameter in aircraft survivability since it measures how detectable an object is with radar. To find the radar cross section Maxwell's equations are solved numerically in the time-domain using a finite difference scheme. This numerical method called Finite Difference Time Domain is very suitable for structures including complex materials. However, this numerical method needs to be verified for large scale simulations, due to numerical dispersion errors. Therefore it is desirable to verify the accuracy of the numerical simulations. In this project, the analytical solution to the multiple scattering by two spheres is implemented using the T-matrix formulation. The analytical solution to the scattering problem is first validated with the analytical Mie-series solution then compared to the Finite Difference Time Domain implementation. The results imply that the difference between the numerical and analytical solution is larger for higher frequencies and larger computational volumes.
Smygteknik används för att förhindra detektering, eller för att fördröja detektion av ett flygplan. Radarmålarea är en viktig parameter för skyddsprestanda hos flygplan eftersom den mäter hur detekterbar ett föremål är med radar. För att hitta radarmålarean löses Maxwells ekvationer numeriskt i tidsdomänen med hjälp av ett finit differensschema. Den numeriska metoden som kallas Finita differensmetoden i tidsdomän, är mycket lämplig för strukturer med komplexa material. Den numeriska metoden behöver valideras för storskaliga simuleringar eftersom det förekommer felaktigheter på grund av den numeriska dispersionen. Därför är det önskvärt att kontrollera riktigheten av de numeriska simuleringarna. I detta projekt, är den analytiska lösningen till multipelspridning av två sfärer implementerad med hjälp av T-matrismetoden. Den analytiska lösningen på spridningsproblemet valideras först mot den analytiska Mie-serielösningen och sedan jämförs den med resultatet av simuleringarna med Finita differensmetoden i tidsdomän. Resultaten antyder att skillnaden mellan den numeriska och analytiska lösningen är större för högre frekvenser och större beräkningsvolymer.

▼ A poroelastic finite element formulation originally derived for modeling porous absorbing material in air is adapted to the problem of acoustic
scattering from a poroelastic seafloor with a one-dimensional randomly rough interface. The developed formulation is verified through calculation of the plane wave reflection coefficient for the case of a flat surface and comparison with the well known analytical solution. The
scattering strengths are then obtained for two different sets of material properties and roughness parameters using a Monte Carlo approach. These numerical results are compared with those given by three analytic
scattering models – perturbation theory, the Kirchhoff approximation, and the small-slope approximation – and from those calculated using two finite element formulations where the sediment is modeled as an acoustic fluid.

▼ This work was an investigation of nanosecond
repetitively pulsed discharges in air by measuring the evolution of
electron density and electron temperature between pulses using
Thomson
scattering of laser light. Bursts of repetitive pulses
within several microseconds after the initial pulse were found to
exhibit a coupling effect and create an even higher electron
density than the initial pulse. The wide range of temperatures and
densities of the electrons existing between pulses allow an
opportunity to explore both the collective and non-collective
regimes of Thomson
scattering. By measuring electron density and
temperature at a variety of times, an accurate description of the
coupling between discharges can been formulated which provides
insight into the behavior and potential applications of nanosecond
repetitive pulse discharges.

▼ The colour of the sky has always fascinated people throughout the ages. The blue sky, the colour of the sun, the orange of the sunsets, the clouds, etc...
For centuries, physicists and mathematicians tried to explain with formulae what artists like Leonardo da Vinci reproduced in their paintings, like the colour of the sky, the bluish colour of distant mountains, fog, and several other nature effects.
In the area of computer graphics there is a great interest in recreating these natural effects, observable everyday, as real as possible. The reproduction of these effects is essential for certain applications such as flight simulators, video-games and other scientific applications, hence, the relevance of rendering these effects in real time.
This project aims to present a state of the art on atmospheric
scattering and so consolidate knowledge on the
subject.
Much work has been done with the purpose of recreating these effects digitally. In result many algorithms, implemented using different techniques, are now available.
When evaluating atmospheric
scattering there are several aspects that are considered such as the light source, the density and size of particles in the atmosphere, among others.
In this thesis, only daylight models will be considered and in these models, the sun is considered the only light source. The particles on the atmosphere can be divided in 2 main entities: air molecules and aerosol particles.
The phenomenon can be explained as the result of the interaction between the rays that come from the sun and the particles in the atmosphere. The most relevant interaction, regarding colour, is
scattering.
The atmospheric
scattering models present methods and techniques to evaluate and recreate this phenomenon. These models are very diverse but they base their techniques with the physics behind the phenomenon.
Their evolution showed a path that went from quality to efficiency. Part of this evolutionary trait came with the evolution on both hardware and software.
The early AS models had a greater concern in recreating with the most possible accuracy the atmospheric
scattering phenomenon. That concern passed, over the years, to recreate this phenomenon the fastest way possible.
When talking about rendering the colours of the sky, is natural to want to render the other natural effects such as clouds and light shafts. Therefore it is also valuable to present information of some algorithms that can recreate these effects.

▼ Silicon-based microelectronic technology is approaching its performance limits due to the rapid downscaling of electronic devices to ever smaller dimensions. Germanium, with its high electron and hole mobility, high carrier injection velocity, very low carrier free-out temperature, etc. is generally considered to be a possible replacement for silicon as the semiconductor of choice for high-performance devices. Before germanium can be adopted a suitable material for making electrical contact to the active areas of the germanium based devices must be identified. In analogy with the current Si-based technology where metal-silicides are used as contacts for the active areas of the devices, the use of metal-germanides is proposed for this purpose. Of all possible metal-germanides, nickel monogermanide (NiGe) appears to be the most promising. In order to successfully make use of nickel germanides in Ge-based devices it is essential to thoroughly understand all processes and mechanisms involved in germanium metallization as well as the properties of the phases formed. This is necessary in order to avoid or control problems that can be encountered during integration. Some of the important information required during fabrication includes the identification of the phase formation sequence, dominant diffusing species and growth kinetics during the germanidation process.
Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) is one of the most powerful and frequently used analytical tools for analysis of composition, thickness and depth profiles of thin solid films or surface and near-surface regions of solids. It has proved to be a very valuable technique in studying the growth characteristics during phase formation. In conventional RBS a number of samples are prepared and annealed in sequence for various durations or at different temperatures to induce differing amounts of phase formation. These specimens are subsequently analyzed to unravel the phase formation characteristics. In contrast, the in situ real-time (i.e. during annealing) RBS used in this study allows all the phase formation information to be conveniently obtained from one sample in a single experimental run. This has the advantages of decreasing the workload, reducing material consumption and eliminating the influence of small differences in the sample preparation procedure and experimental conditions. Additionally, it enables one to follow the reaction at all stages of compound growth which limits the risk of overlooking important steps during the phase formation process.
Two samples prepared in high vacuum by electron beam evaporation have been used in this investigation. In both samples thin layers of tantalum approximately 5-6 Å thick have been used as inert markers to monitor the direction of atomic mobility. The first sample had a configuration of Ge<100>/Ta(5 Å)/Ni(800 Å) while the configuration of the second sample was Ge<100>/Ta(6 Å)/Ge(490 Å)/Ni(470 Å). The solid state reactions of nickel with germanium were induced by in situ ramped thermal annealling in…
