Md Raf E Ul Shougat
Engineering
Develop adaptive mechanisms that tune nonlinear oscillators to stay near critical transitions between motion patterns. Use modeling, stability analysis and numerical continuation to find how this affects sensitivity, memory and robustness.
Amy Gruss
Education Research
Measure how Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS), group discussion of ambiguous art at a campus museum, changes perspective-taking in first-year civil and environmental engineering students, using a validated scale.
Nikolaos Kidonakis
Physics
Calculate soft-gluon corrections, from low-energy gluon radiation, to top-antitop pair, single-top, and top-pair-plus-Z or Higgs production at NNLO and N3LO, including differential distributions for LHC and future colliders.
Xinyue Zhang
Physics
Develop a testbed that links quantum-correlated twin beams of light with phase-sensitive amplification to study quadrature parity-time symmetry, a balance between gain and loss, in integrated quantum photonics.
Michael Stollenz
Chemistry
Synthesize a library of bis(amidine) ligands that can hold at least four copper(I) ions in a linear row, using mesitylcopper as a clean organometallic copper source.
