Gluon Transverse-Momentum-Dependent Distributions From Large-Momentum Effective Theory, Ruilin Zhu, Yao Ji, Jian-Hui Zhang, Shuai Zhao
Gluon Transverse-Momentum-Dependent Distributions From Large-Momentum Effective Theory, Ruilin Zhu, Yao Ji, Jian-Hui Zhang, Shuai Zhao
Physics Faculty Publications
We demonstrate that gluon transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions (TMDPDFs) can be extracted from lattice calculations of appropriate Euclidean correlations in large-momentum effective theory (LaMET). Based on perturbative calculations of gluon unpolarized and helicity TMDPDFs, we present a matching formula connecting them and their LaMET counterparts, where the latter are renormalized in a scheme facilitating lattice calculations and converted to the MS ¯ scheme. The hard matching kernel is given up to one-loop level. We also show that the perturbative result is independent of the prescription used for the pinch-pole singularity in the relevant correlations. Our results offer a guidance for …
Data Acquisition, Analysis And Simulations For The Fermilab Muon G−2 Experiment, Fang Han
Data Acquisition, Analysis And Simulations For The Fermilab Muon G−2 Experiment, Fang Han
Theses and Dissertations--Physics and Astronomy
The goal of the new Muon g-2 E989 experiment at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) is a precise measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment, aμ ≡ (g-2)/2. The previous BNL experiment measured the anomaly aμ(BNL) with an uncertainty of 0.54 parts per million (ppm). The discrepancy between the current standard model calculation of the aμ(SM) and the previous measurement aμ(BNL) is over 3σ. The FNAL Muon g-2 experiment aims at increasing the precision to 140 parts per billion (ppb) to resolve the discrepancy between the theoretical …
Changes In The Scattering Phase Shifts For Partial Waves Of Ultracold Particles At Different Energies, Kaaviyan Faezi
Changes In The Scattering Phase Shifts For Partial Waves Of Ultracold Particles At Different Energies, Kaaviyan Faezi
Honors Scholar Theses
At low energies, scattering phase shifts, the difference in phases between the incoming and outgoing spherical waves in scattering, for different partial waves follow a similar pattern. The phase shift curves, which are a function of the angular momentum quantum number for different scattering energy, obtain resonances after reaching their maxima, and as energy is increased, these resonances become smaller and eventually disappear. Using numerical methods involving the use of Chebyshev polynomials, we solve the wave equation for a scattering potential to obtain the radial equation. From the radial equation we then find the scattering phase shift for a particular …
Viscous Fluid In A Horizontally Rotating Cylinder, Kolter Bradshaw, Zach Van Engen
Viscous Fluid In A Horizontally Rotating Cylinder, Kolter Bradshaw, Zach Van Engen
Student Work
If you race a hoop and a disk of equal mass and radius by rolling them down a ramp, the disk will reach the bottom first due to the difference in how the mass is distributed. For rolling solid objects, this phenomenon is straightforward to model. However, if you roll a hollow cylinder filled with fluid, the situation is more complex due to the way fluid properties, such as viscosity, effect rotation. We are analyzing the motion of fluids and beads in a cylinder in order to observe viscosity effects on the fluid-cylinder system. By examining a rolling fluid-cylinder system …
Comparative Study Of Aerosols Using Particle Induced X-Ray Emission, Colin L. Gleason
Comparative Study Of Aerosols Using Particle Induced X-Ray Emission, Colin L. Gleason
Honors Theses
A comparative study of atmospheric aerosols was performed on samples collected in Schenectady, NY using Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) spectroscopy. PIXE is an elemental analysis technique used to measure the elemental concentration of a sample. This is part of a systematic study to identify the sources and understand the transport, transformation, and e˙ects of airborne pollutants and the connection between aerosols, the deposition of pollution, and the uptake of pollutants by wildlife and vegetation. The atmo-spheric aerosols were collected with a nine-stage cascade impactor that allows for the analysis of the particulate matter as a function of particle size. …
Ion-Beam Analysis Of Airborne Pollution, Charles I. Harrington
Ion-Beam Analysis Of Airborne Pollution, Charles I. Harrington
Honors Theses
A research program in ion-beam analysis (IBA) of atmospheric aerosols is being developed to study pollution in the Capital District and Adirondack Mountains of New York. The IBA techniques applied in this project include proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE), proton induced gamma-ray emission (PIGE), Rutherford backscattering (RBS), and proton elastic scattering anal-ysis (PESA). These methods are well suited for studying air pollution because they are quick, non-destructive, require little to no sample preparation, and capable of investigating microscopic samples. While PIXE spectrometry is used to analyze most elements from silicon to uranium, the remaining techniques an-alyze some of the lighter …

Thermodynamics Analysis Of Refrigeration, Joe Lam
Thermodynamics Analysis Of Refrigeration, Joe Lam
Undergraduate Honors Capstone Projects
In this term paper, I will look indepth at refrigeration. Refrigeration is a rather long and complex topic. Therefore, I will only discuss it as detail as conditions permit. As for the parts where minute details required, I will refer you to the selected references. In discussing refrigeration, I will first look at the Carnot cycle as a fundamental issue for refrigeration.
Determination Of A Molecular Weight Distribution For Intermediate Degradation Products Of Bovine Plasma Albumin, Sherwin M. Beck
Determination Of A Molecular Weight Distribution For Intermediate Degradation Products Of Bovine Plasma Albumin, Sherwin M. Beck
Master's Theses
Within the last decade several important studies have been made on the large degradation of products of proteins. However, little work has been done on the intermediate degradation products. This study is concerned with the chromatographic separation of intermediate fragments from chrymotryptie hydrolysates of bovine plasma albumin and the determination of the molecular weights of the fragments. An automatic recording differential refractometer employing a differential cell of original design permitted the observation of chromatographic components as they were eluted f rom a column of Sephadex G-50. A fraction collector of original design collected 3 ml. fractions of the effluent. Three …
