On effective field theory of dark matter
We investigate the feasibility of dark matter particles existing in the Universe as a spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ fermion using effective field theories to parametrise the higher order physics. Our goal is to determine the requirements ... -
First-Principles Studies of Complex Oxide Materials
This thesis uses first-principles methods to study complex oxide materials. The first part of the thesis deals with complex oxide materials that have applications as lithium-ion battery electrodes. In the second part, a ... -
Mocking quantum mechanics: Semiclassical and machine-learning approaches to frustrated magnetism
Many-body quantum mechanics is the fundamental theory behind many areas of modern science, such as condensed-matter physics, nuclear physics, and quantum chemistry. It is also notoriously hard: the classical picture of ... -
Fermionic Quantum Information in Surface Acoustic Waves
Quantum computers are on the verge of revolutionising modern technology by providing scientists with unparalleled computational resources. With quantum-mechanical phenomena such as the superposition principle and entanglement, ...
