    • A web-based application of the Cellular Force Inference Toolkit (CellFIT) 
      Xu, Xiaojia (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2019-04-18)
      Given an image of an epithelial cell sheet, CellFIT can infer cellular forces by segmenting the image into individual cells, constructing equilibrium equations for the points where cells meet at triple junctions, and finding ...
    • Axionlike Dark Energy and Particle Decay in theFuture of the Accelerating Universe 
      Norton, Cameron (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2021-04-30)
      The 1998 discovery that the universe was accelerating in its expansion has yet to be explained theoretically, meriting the continual theoretical and observational study of this phenomena. In this thesis, we undergo a ...
    • Analytic Solutions of Two Electrons in Harmonic Confinement in an Optical Cavity 
      Huang, Chenhang (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2021-12)
      The possibility to control quantum systems with photons has stimulated recent interest in the study of quantum optical systems. While simple classical quantum systems admit well-known solutions, analysis of light-coupling ...
    • Deformed Explicitly Correlated Gaussians 
      Beutel, Matthew (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2022-12)
      Strong coupling of cavity electromagnetic modes and molecules has emerged as an area of intense theoretical and experimental interest. Such systems are of particular interest due to their ability to modify the physical ...
