Creating, Writing, and Reading NETCDF Files on a Mobile Device

The purpose of this research was to master several unfamiliar concepts and bring them together in one cohesive project. DroidCDF is an application for the Android operating system to create, write data to, and read data from netCDF format files. DroidCDF uses Unidata’s NetCDF Java Library and can write files in netCDF-3 format but read from any netCDF format files. As mobile devices become more powerful and commonplace, DroidCDF provides a convenient tool for researchers. An incremental methodology was applied; the application was built from a rough workflow to eventually a robust and fully functional program. The produced files are fully portable and can be used as the input for other applications. The application has been tested with several large netCDF files with varying conventions and has handled each one remarkably well. Upon submission of this thesis, DroidCDF will be released onto the open market

Jψ\psi nuclear modification factor at mid-rapidity in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN=\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76 TeV

We report on the J$\psi$ nuclear modification factor $R_{\rm AA}$ at mid-rapidity ($|y|<0.9$) in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$2.76 TeV measured by ALICE. J$\psi$ candidates are reconstructed using their $e^+e^-$ decay channel. The kinematical coverage extends to zero transverse momentum allowing the measurement of integrated cross sections. We show the centrality dependence of the J$\psi$ $R_{\rm AA}$ at mid-rapidity compared to the results from PHENIX at mid-rapidity and ALICE results at forward-rapidity. We also discuss comparisons to calculations from theoretical models.Comment: Proceedings for the Quark Matter Conference, Washington, 13-18 August 2012. To be published in Nuclear Physics

Heavy-quark azimuthal momentum correlations as a sensitive probe of thermalization

In high-energy nuclear collisions the degree of thermalization at the partonic level is a key issue. Due to their large mass, heavy quarks and their possible participation in the collective flow of the QCD-medium constitute a powerful probe for thermalization. We present studies with PYTHIA for p+p collisions at the top LHC energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 14 TeV applying the two-particle transverse momentum correlator $$ to pairs of heavy-quark hadrons and their semi-leptonic decay products as a function of their relative azimuth. Modifications or even the complete absence of initially existing correlations in Pb+Pb collisions might indicate thermalization at the partonic level.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figs.; accepted for publication in Nucl. Phys.

Ultra-peripheral collisions of heavy ions at RHIC and the LHC

This paper deals with so-called Ultra-Peripheral Collisions (UPCs) of heavy ions. These can be defined as collisions in which no hadronic interactions occur because of the large spatial separation between the projectile and target. The interactions are instead mediated by the electromagnetic field. Two types of ultra-peripheral collisions can be distinguished: purely electro-magnetic interactions (two-photon interactions) and photonuclear interactions, in which a photon from the projectile interacts with the hadronic component of the target.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures, 2 tables.
