Spectral functions from lattice QCD at finite temperature
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2015)An investigation of the bottonionium spectrum above and below the QCD deconfinement crossover temperature, Tc, was performed using a non-relativistic treatment of the heavy quark on anisotropic lattices with Nf = 2 + 1 ... -
Spectroscopy and scattering of mesons containing charm quarks from lattice QCD
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2013)We present excited spectra of mesons containing charm-light (D), charm-strange (Ds) and charm-charm (charmoninm) combinations. We perform these spectroscopic calculations on two volumes. 16(3) X 128 and 24(3) x 128, of ... -
Spike train analysis
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2015)This thesis focuses on the study of spike trains, the information carrying signals conveyed by neurons in the nervous system. Spiking data from songbirds from [Narayan et al., 2006] was used prominently in this thesis. ... -
Static-light-light baryons : a spectroscopic study using distillation
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2013)Over the last decade, hadron spectroscopy in lattice QCD has graduated from calculating single rows of the quark propagation matrix to calculating all elements of the quark propagation matrix - the so-called all-to-all ... -
String breaking from Lattice QCD with Nf=2+1 dynamical fermions
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2019)In quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the static potential V (r) is defined as the energy of the ground state of the system containing a static quark and a static antiquark, separated by a distance r. As a consequence of confinement, ... -
The radiation bound for a Klein-Gordon field on a static spherical spacetime
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2013)We establish a well-posed Cauchy problem in Minkowski (R4, η), associated with a radiating Klein-Gordon field ψ(x) = eztψ(xi), in curvature coordinates {xμ = t, p, θ,Φ} on a static spherically symmetric spacetime (M, g). ... -
Towards Excited Radiative Transitions in Charmonium
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2019)In this thesis lattice QCD is utilised to investigate the spectrum of charmonium and charmed mesons with the aim of working towards investigating radiative transitions between excited states in the charmonium spectrum. ... -
Yang-Baxter integrable open quantum systems
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Mathematics. Discipline of Pure & Applied Mathematics, 2023)The main result of this thesis is the use of the boost operator to develop a systematic method to construct new integrable spin chains with nearest-neighbour interaction and characterized by an R-matrix of non-difference ... -
Yang-Mills instantons on the taub-NUT space and supersymmetric N=2 gauge theories with impurities
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Mathematics, 2010)We write a formula for arbitrary charge calorons, instantons on R3 x S1, in terms of the Green's function of the Laplacian defined for the Nahm Transform, thus generalising the formula for the charge one caloron derived ...
