I present, justify and describe the system modifications and improvements that were implemented and the apparatuses that were built in support of this effort. The objective is a production of tightly controlled and highly uniform custom magnetic fields of minimal variance such that the electron beam interacts with an optical field while traveling along the central ray of the undulator.; The construction and commissioning process of the Free Electron Laser Laboratory during the years of 2000-2007 offered unique opportunities to realize many prototype designs and novel developments to enhance the efficiency of laser subsystems. The MKIII FEL Lab is expected to become the central research facility for many projects such as remote sensing, x-ray spectroscopy and medical research.; This dissertation is envisioned to serve as a guide and a practical reference document for the conditioning work on FEL undulator systems. Many hands-on methods are described and a thorough mathematical analysis is presented in support of any and all scientific claims contained within this dissertation.; Through numerical modeling, metrology, engineering, experimentation and analysis, I achieved a magnetic field quality, which resulted in the transverse e-beam oscillations of less than 100 (mum) for the e-beam energy of about 45 (MeV). The new maximum value of the undulator parameter, K 2/2, is now about 25% greater than the old maximum value, and an operation of the FEL system at its optimized state, where K 2/2 = 1.2, is now possible. A brand new batch of NdFeB magnetic wafers is now in the undulator, while the entire set of old and damaged SmCo 5 wafers have been removed from the device.; Includes bibliographical references (leaves 119-120).; Also available by subscription via World Wide Web; 149 leaves, bound 29 cm Tue, 01 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10125/20834 2008-01-01T00:00:00Z Lobachevskiy, Edgar Y http://hdl.handle.net/10125/20833 Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Hawaii at Manoa, 2008.; Inclusive branching ratios have been measured for the decays B+ → J/psiK +pi+pi- and B + → psi'K+pi +pi- using 492 fb-1 of data collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance by the Belle detector at KEKB.

CO 2 laser (∼20 W cm-2 intensity, 10.6 mum wavelength) and the laser-induced steady state emission spectrum was analyzed with the IFS 66 v/S spectrometer. The laser-induced emission spectrum showed the characteristics consistent with the laser-heated thermal emission. The decay constant of the emission followed by a 100 ms CO2 laser pulse was measured with a pyroelectric detector and determined to be 0.3 s.; In part II, several polycrystalline semiconductors [silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), gallium arsenide (GaAs), and cadmium telluride (CdTe)] were irradiated with a 150 Ps Nd:YAG laser (532/1064 nm wavelength) and induced changes in the optical properties were monitored by measuring the time-resolved reflectance and transmittance of a low power CO2 laser incident on the samples at the Brewster angle. The experimental results showed a sub-nanosecond increase in the reflectance and a longer increase in the absorption as a result of electron-hole pairs (i.e. carriers) generated by absorption of the incident Nd:YAG laser pulses.; This work consists of two parts, (1) Terahertz (THz) spectroscopy and laser-induced infrared emission spectroscopy of nitromethane and (2) optical properties of laser-induced carriers on semiconductor surfaces probed by a 10.6 mum wavelength CO2 laser. In the spectroscopic study of nitromethane, previously unreported low resolution rotational-torsional spectra in the THz frequency were obtained by a Bruker IFS 66 v/S Fourier transform spectrometer. The acquired spectra were then compared with a calculation based on a rotational-torsional Hamiltonian which includes centrifugal distortions and rotational-torsional coupling terms. Even though the constants used in the calculation were a result of fitting the microwave spectrum, a discrepancy was observed between the calculated and the experimentally obtained spectrum.; Includes bibliographical references (leaves xxx-xxx).; Also available by subscription via World Wide Web; 112 leaves, bound 29 cm Tue, 01 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10125/20828 2008-01-01T00:00:00Z Toyoda, Yoshimasa http://hdl.handle.net/10125/11817 Typescript.; Bibliography: leaves 256-262.; xv, 265 leaves ill Thu, 01 Jan 1976 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10125/11817 1976-01-01T00:00:00Z Katsura, Tomotaro http://hdl.handle.net/10125/11816 Photocopy of typescript.; Bibliography: leaves 131-134.; viii, 134 leaves ill Tue, 01 Jan 1974 00:00:00 GMT http://hdl.handle.net/10125/11816 1974-01-01T00:00:00Z Smith, Jerel Arlen http://hdl.handle.net/10125/11815 Typescript.; "References": leaves 50-52.; 1 v.
