Engineered Crystal Systems for Erbium Quantum Hardware
Published 2026Rare-earth ions in solid-state hosts are a compelling hardware platform for quantum networking due to their exceptional optical, and long-lived spin transitions. Erbium's transitions couple to photons in the Telecom-C ...Open AccessThesis -
Hydrodynamics of Coral Forereef Spurs and Grooves
Published 2026Hydrodynamics govern key ecological and geological processes on a coral reef. On the forereef, high energy and wave dissipation are greatest, and typically produce spur and groove (SaG) morphology: spurs extending seawards ...Open AccessThesis -
Milky Way Analogues through the Lens of Integral Field Spectroscopy: A Systematic Approach to Galaxy Kinematics
Published 2026In this thesis, we determine the properties of Milky Way Analogues (MWAs) using different selection techniques for identifying MWAs in the SAMI Galaxy Survey to place the Milky Way in cosmological perspective. We define ...Open AccessThesis -
Purinergic Receptor Modulators and the Effect on Microglial Function.
Published 2026Purinergic receptors expressed on microglia are key modulators of neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration. Within the P2 subfamily, P2X4 and P2Y6 play essential roles in microgliamediated immune responses. Activation of ...Open AccessThesis
