Synthesis and Characterization of Nanocomposite Scintillators for Radiation Detection
(2016-05-11)
Inorganic single crystal and organic (plastic and liquid) scintillators are commonly used for radiation detection. Inorganic single crystals are efficient and have better energy resolution compared to organic scintillators. ...
LOW DIMENSIONAL SEMICONDUCTING NANOSTRUCTURES: STABILITY, TRENDS AND PROMISES
(2016-05-10)
Systematic studies of low dimensional semiconducting nanostructures have been performed. In particular, silicon-germanium (SiGe) armchair type nanotubes, and both zigzag and armchair type nanoribbons were used to represent ...
Searches For The Exclusive Higgs and the Charged Higgs Bosons with the ATLAS Detector at the LHC
(2016-12-06)
In this thesis, searches for the exclusive Standard Model (SM) and charged
hMSSM Higgs bosons are performed. While observations of the SM Higgs boson
in 2012 by ATLAS and CMS collaborations were ground-breaking, several ...
Searches for Supersymmetric Particles with the ATLAS Detector using Boosted Decay Tree Topologies
(2016-08-05)
The existence of a scalar Higgs particle poses a challenge to the Standard Model through an unnatural hierarchy problem with quadratic divergence. A supersymmetric framework, proposing heavy partners to every Standard Model ...
Synthesis and Application of Porphyrinated Latex Particles for Photodynamic Therapy
(2016-08-26)
Photodynamic Therapy is a cancer treatment that requires a photosensitizer to reach a tumor in order to be excited by electromagnetic radiation sources so that the cancer killing agents such as Singlet Oxygen can be ...
