    • Advances in the Measurement of the Electron Electric Dipole Moment 

      Meisenhelder, Cole (2023-05-10)
      Searches for the electron electric dipole moment (eEDM) are powerful tests of physics beyond the standard model, as they probe for new evidence of time-reversal violating interactions. In 2018 our ACME collaboration reported ...
    • Chemical and Cellular Defenses against Foreign Pathogens 

      Lin, Xiaonan (2012-09-07)
      Bacterial and viral infections affect billions of people each year. While bacterial infections are treated by the use of antibiotics, viral infections are eradicated by the immune system. This thesis comprises two parts. ...
    • Exchange Control of Nuclear Spin Diffusion in a Double Quantum Dot 

      Reilly, David J.; Taylor, Jacob Mason; Petta, Jason R.; Marcus, Charles Masamed; Hanson, Micah P.; Gossard, Arthur C. (American Physical Society, 2010)
      The influence of gate-controlled two-electron exchange on the relaxation of nuclear polarization in small ensembles \((N \sim 10^6)\) of nuclear spins is examined in a GaAs double quantum dot system. Waiting in the (2,0) ...
    • Quantum Jump Spectroscopy of a Single Electron in a New and Improved Apparatus 

      Dorr, Joshua Charles (2013-10-15)
      The 2008 measurement of the electron magnetic moment is the most precisely measured property of an elementary particle, with an astonishing precision of 0.28 parts per trillion. It makes possible the most precise determination ...
