Quantum computation has attracted a great deal of attention from the scientific community in recent years. By using the quantum mechanical phenomena of superposition and entanglement, a quantum computer can solve certain ...
Critical Behavior On Approaching A Double Critical Point In A Complex Mixture
(2010-08-25)
This thesis reports the results of light-scattering measurements and visual investigations of critical phenomena in the complex mixture 1-propanol (1P) + water (W) + potassium chloride (KCl) which has a special critical ...
Gravitational Waves From Inspiralling Compact Binaries : 3PN Polarisations, Angular Momentum Flux And Applications To Astrophysics And Cosmology
(2010-09-03)
Binary systems comprising of compact objects like neutron stars (NS) and/or black holes (BH) lose their energy and angular momentum via gravitational waves (GW). Radiation reaction due to the emission of GW results in a ...
Investigation Of Damage Process In Current Stressed Metal Film Using Noise Spectroscopy, Scanning Thermal Microscopy And Simulation Studies
(2010-09-27)
Reliability, besides the performance, is one of the important key factors of success of any technology. While a product should perform at best as desired, it must also be capable of working for intended period of life ...
