Diffractive Imaging Of Laser Induced Molecular Reactions With Kiloelectron-Volt Ultrafast Electron Diffraction, Yanwei Xiong Apr 2023

Diffractive Imaging Of Laser Induced Molecular Reactions With Kiloelectron-Volt Ultrafast Electron Diffraction, Yanwei Xiong

Department of Physics and Astronomy: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Capturing the structural changes during a molecular reaction with ultrafast electron diffraction (UED) requires a high spatiotemporal resolution and sufficiently high signal-to-noise to record the signals with high fidelity. In this dissertation, I have focused on the development of a tabletop gas phase keV-UED setup with a femtosecond temporal resolution. A DC electron gun was employed to generate electron pulses with a high repetition rate of 5 kHz. The space charge effect in the electron pulse was ameliorated by compressing the 90 keV electron pulse longitudinally with a time varying electric field in an RF cavity. The velocity mismatch between …


The Fluid Margin Between Physical Causal Closure And Non-Physical Causal Closure, Extended To The Neutrosophic Causal Closure Principle, Florentin Smarandache Jan 2023

The Fluid Margin Between Physical Causal Closure And Non-Physical Causal Closure, Extended To The Neutrosophic Causal Closure Principle, Florentin Smarandache

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

We plead for a fluid margin, or mixed/indeterminate buffer zone, between Physical and Non-Physical Causal Closures, and for a Neutrosophic Causal Closure Principle claiming that the chances of all physical effects are determined by their prior partially physical and partially non-physical causes.
