The Space In Between, Cailyn Dawson
The Space In Between, Cailyn Dawson
Theses and Dissertations
This paper asks the question: is it possible for our bodies to hold contradicting identities at the same time? Through monochromatic self- portraits, the artist creates a link between quantum mechanics and painting, using the principle of superposition to depict these multiple unformed states of being.
Infinite Line, Infinite Knowledge: The 'Spera' And Organized Chaos In Lambert's Encyclopedia, The 'Liber Floridus', Ava Romano
Theses and Dissertations
The Liber Floridus is a medieval encyclopedia renowned for its program of circular diagrams, or sperae. Inside this manuscript of 190 chapters, these diagrams frame and embody written knowledge, revealing a connection between encyclopedism and life in the Benedictine monastery by creating a coherent visual organization of chapters.
On The Detection Of Gw190814, Matthew E. Gill
On The Detection Of Gw190814, Matthew E. Gill
Theses and Dissertations
The eld of gravitational wave astronomy is currently at an all time high. The
rst half of the most recent observing run (April 1, 2019 - September 30, 2019) yielded
a total of 39 gravitational wave detections, including 13 from sources which had not
been identied by other astronomical observation methods before. This is three times
as many detections than were measured in the rst two observing runs combined.
In this paper, the design sensitivity decisions leading to this unprecedented rate of
detection are explored. In particular, we detail the nature of the LIGO and VIRGO
gravitational wave interferometers. One …
Series Solutions Of Polarized Gowdy Universes, Doniray Brusaferro
Series Solutions Of Polarized Gowdy Universes, Doniray Brusaferro
Theses and Dissertations
Einstein's field equations are a system of ten partial differential equations. For a special class of spacetimes known as Gowdy spacetimes, the number of equations is reduced due to additional structure of two dimensional isometry groups with mutually orthogonal Killing vectors. In this thesis, we focus on a particular model of Gowdy spacetimes known as the polarized T3 model, and provide an explicit solution to Einstein's equations.
