Jia, Haichen (2021-08-18)Since the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of magnons in ferromagnetic films was realized, it has drawn much attention due to the unique property of magnon spectrum. Namely, the BEC has two components corresponding to the ...

Sears, Matthew (2012-10-19)Irreversible thermodynamics is a widely-applicable toolset that extends thermodynamics to describe systems undergoing irreversible processes. It is particularly useful for describing macroscopic flow of system components, ...

Liu, Zhonghai (2010-07-14)We study thoroughly Casimir energy and Casimir force in a rectangular cavity and piston with various boundary conditions, for both scalar field and electromagnetic (EM) field. Using the cylinder kernel approach, we find ...

Murphy, Blaine Cullen (2014-08-01)A tensorial (9-component) controlled source electromagnetic survey over an oblique slip fault in Mason County, Texas was acquired and the data were analyzed in order to characterize the structure of the fault and observe ...

Bouas, Jeffrey David (2011-08-08)I review the construction of Hertz potentials in vector calculus starting from Maxwell's equations. From here, I lay the minimal foundations of differential geometry to construct Hertz potentials for a general (spatially ...

Lapa, Pavel (2017-08-01)Many interfacial effects occurring in magnetic heterostructures are related to emergence of inhomogeneous magnetic states. In these states, a magnetic order and a direction of magnetization change significantly on the scale ...

Scher, Aaron David (Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)In this thesis, two separate research topics are undertaken both in the general area of compact RF/microwave circuit design. The first topic involves characterizing the parasitic effects and error due to unused post-production ...

Noel, John (2010-07-14)We developed new methods for controlling and studying microtubules (MTs) outside the complex workings of the living cell. Several surface treatments for preventing MT fouling on surfaces were analyzed and, for the first ...

Hardy, Richard Lee (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)The need for low propellant weight, high efficiency propulsion systems is a glaring need for various space missions. This thesis presents the thrust modeling of the Dense Plasma Focus plasma motion phases. It also contrasts ...

Hsia, Chih-Hao (2011-10-21)Studying dynamics of magnetization relaxation in excited magnetic materials is important both for understanding the rates and pathways of magnetization relaxation and for the potential use in spin-based electronics and ...

Borunda Bermudez, Mario Francisco (2009-05-15)This dissertation focuses on the study of spin-dependent transport in systems with strong spin-orbit coupling within their band structure. In particular we focus on the anomalous Hall effect, the spin Hall effect, and the ...
