Non-ergodicity in Interacting Quasiperiodic Systems and Disordered Fock Lattice Models
In this thesis, we study different aspects of many body localization in closed quantum systems. Many body localized systems are isolated interacting quantum systems that fail to thermalize on their own (non-ergodic) and ... -
Non-invasive Elastic Property Recovery of Tissue and Tissue-Like Objects from Ultrasound Excited Resonant Modes
This thesis is on non-invasive elastic property measurement of tissue or tissue-mimicking materials through vibro-acoustography and ultrasound assisted diffusing wave spectroscopy (UA-DWS). Towards this, a known force is ... -
Nonequilibrium Fluctuations In Sedimenting And Self-Propelled Systems
(2013-06-10)Equilibrium statistical mechanics has a remarkable property: the steady state probability distribution can be calculated by a procedure independent of the detailed dynamics of the system under consideration. The partition ... -
Nonlinear and Geometric Properties of Accreting Compact Sources Based on Spectral and Timing Analyses
We study the spectro-temporal properties of the black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs) GRS 1915+105 and IGR J17091-3624 with data from RXTE, Chandra and XMM-Newton. From the analysis result, we propose models of accretion ... -
Nonlinear Charge Transport and Photo-Physical Studies in Conjugated Polymers (P3meT, P3HT) and their Hybrid Composites with Silver Sulfide Quantum Dots
Organic semiconductors have been investigated as an emerging class of materials for their viable applications in electronics. Despite considerable improvement in device properties, a better understanding of the nature of ... -
Nonlinear Dynamics Of Resonances In, And Ejection From Paul Traps
(2008-09-26)This thesis presents results of investigations that have been carried out to understand dynamics in nonlinear Paul trap mass spectrometers. Of the three problems that have been taken up for study in this thesis, the first ... -
Normal Spectrum of a Subnormal Operator
(2018-03-21)Let H be a separable Hilbert space over the complex field. The class S := {N|M : N is normal on H and M is an invariant subspace for Ng of subnormal operators. This notion was introduced by Halmos. The minimal normal ... -
Novel Diffraction Based Deflection Profiling For Microcantilever Sensor Technology
(2015-02-04)A novel optical diffraction based technique is proposed and demonstrated to measure deflections of the order of ~1nm in microcantilevers (MC) designed for sensing ultra-small forces of stress. The proposed method ... -
Novel Methods To Interrogate Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors
(2013-02-14)A novel detection technique to estimate the amount of chirp in fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) is proposed. This method is based on the fact that reflectivity at central wavelength of FBG reflection changes with strain/temperature ... -
Novel Micro fluidic Techniques for Point-of-Care Diagnostics
Point-of-care Diagnostics (POCD) is one of the rapidly growing areas of health-care sector that avails to the needs of the patient at the point-of-care. An ideal POCD device is required to be compact, portable, offer ... -
Novel Pathways for Beyond Standard Model Physics
In the light of discovering the Higgs boson and null results at the LHC, we look for new pathways for Beyond Standard Model Physics, which could accommodate at least one of the Standard Model shortcomings. (i) Unification ... -
Novel Spectral Processing Methods in NMR – Wavelet Transform and Pattern Based Analysis
NMR spectroscopy provides a variety of information leading to an understanding of the properties of different materials. To extract this information from the experiments, one needs to have noise and artifacts free spectra ... -
