Development of Coherent Detector Technologies for Sub-Millimetre Wave Astronomy Observations
The thesis describes the development of receiver technologies for sub-millimetre astronomy instruments, focusing on high performance coherent cryogenic detectors operating close to …
Narrowband Single Photons for Light-Matter Interfaces
This book provides a step-by-step guide on how to construct a narrowband single photon source for the integration with atom-based memory systems. It combines the necessary …
Dynamics Near Quantum Criticality in Two Space Dimensions
This work addresses dynamical aspects of quantum criticality in two space dimensions. It probes two energy scales: the amplitude (Higgs) mode, which describes fluctuations of the …
Electronic Beam Steering and Polarization Agile Planar Antennas in Liquid Crystal Technology
This book describes the characterization of liquid crystal materials at microwave frequencies and the usage of these materials in reconfigurable planar antennas and in their …
An Integrated Solution Based Irregular Driving Detection
This thesis introduces a new integrated algorithm for the detection of lane-level irregular driving. To date, there has been very little improvement in the ability to detect lane …
Observation of CP Violation in B± ? DK± Decays
CP violation is a well-established phenomenon in particle physics, but until 2001 it was only observed in kaons. In the last decade, several matter-antimatter asymmetries have been …
Saturation of the f-mode Instability in Neutron Stars
This book presents a study of the saturation of unstable f-modes (fundamental modes) due to low-order nonlinear mode coupling. Since their theoretical prediction in 1934, neutron …
Slope-Channel Coupling as a Factor in the Evolution of Mountains
In this thesis, coupling between the delivery of slope material into valley floors and river erosion is considered to be a factor in the evolution of mid-altitude, forested …
Higgs, Supersymmetry and Dark Matter After Run I of the LHC
This work was nominated as an outstanding PhD thesis by the LPSC, Université Grenoble Alpes, France. The LHC Run 1 was a milestone in particle physics, leading to the discovery of …
New Gold-Catalyzed Reactions and Applications for the Synthesis of Alkaloids
Ana Escribano Cuesta's thesis presents a detailed study of the inter- and intramolecular reactions of carbonyl compounds with 1,6-enynes using gold (I) complexes. An important part …
Search for the Standard Model Higgs Boson in the H ? ZZ ? l + l - qq Decay Channel at CMS
The theoretical foundations of the Standard Model of elementary particles relies on the existence of the Higgs boson, a particle which has been revealed for the first time by the …
Fermi Surface and Quantum Critical Phenomena of High-Temperature Superconductors
This thesis provides a detailed introduction to quantum oscillation measurement and analysis and offers a connection between Fermi surface properties and superconductivity in …
