Redevelopment and Evaluation of LabVIEW Programming for Adaptive Optics Imaging Methods
(2021-04)
Within the medical community, adaptive optics scanning light ophthalmoscopes (AOSLOs) represent a powerful clinical and experimental tool for non-invasive assessment of the living retina. However, current devices are large, ...
Two-Dimensional Physical Modeling of the Human Vocal Tract using Computer-Aided Design
(2021-04)
Precise shaping of the surfaces of the human vocal tract is necessary for the controlled production of sound in speech. Vibration of the vocal folds produces a harmonic series with a fundamental frequency that depends on ...
Modeling Diffusion in Accreting White Dwarf Stars : The Life of a Dead Star
(2021-04)
A white dwarf star is a very small, very dense star. They are usually about the size of the Earth, but have about the same mass as the Sun. A single teaspoon of material from a white dwarf may weigh more than a large dump ...
Gamma Ray Spectrometry : Analyzing the Response of a Gamma Ray Spectrometer
(2022-04)
We experimentally analyzed the internal components of an old gamma ray spectrometer. The NaI(TI) spectrometer was manufactured in 1979 and all of its internal components are original. We were unable to open the device to ...
Modeling Convective Overshoot in Accreting White Dwarfs
(2021-04)
This research utilizes the Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) software to study the circumstances surrounding accreting white dwarfs growing in mass that are known to produce type 1a supernovae and are ...
Chemiluminescence Flow Analysis for Monitoring of Respirable Crystalline Silica
(2021-04)
Particulate silica is a trace respiratory hazard in a wide variety of industries that employ two million Americans. [Bang et al] Workers exposed to respirable particulate silica may acquire chronic respiratory diseases ...
Gamma Ray Spectrometry Using a NaI(Tl) Scintillator
(2021-04)
I've converted the Physics Department's single-channel scintillation gamma detector into a multi-channel spectrometer by integrating a multi-channel analyzer (MCA) into the current system. The original system could not be ...
