A study of the dissipation which accompanies superfluid flow in liquid helium films
(University of St Andrews, 1974) - ThesisThe damping of the inertial oscillations of a flowing helium film was found to be well accounted for by a theory put forward by Robinson. In particular this theory predicts that the damping constant should reach a maximum ... -
An experimental investigation of the thermal expansion of alkali halides at low temperatures

A NMR-study on Nd₂CuO₄₋ₓFₓ and building a variable temperature and frequency NMR-probe
(University of St Andrews, 1994) - ThesisA study of the Nd₂CuO₄₋ₓFₓ electron-doped high-TC superconductor has been carried out, using ¹⁹F and ⁶³Cu NMR techniques as well as X-ray diffraction. In order to do ¹⁹F NMR a spectrometer was set up and a homemade ... -
Compact femtosecond lasers : routes to improved practicality and adaptability
(University of St Andrews, 2005) - ThesisIn this thesis, a number of practical femtosecond laser systems are described. Through appropriate selection and design of the intracavity optics used in these lasers, increased adaptability is achieved without making any ... -
Comparison of structurally similar organic molecules by X-ray diffraction
(University of St Andrews, 1973) - Thesis
