Investigating strongly interacting multicritical field theories using numerical conformal bootstrap
(2022-11-29) - ThesisIn strongly correlated quantum systems, conventional techniques for understanding physical behaviour near multicritical points break down. Numerical conformal bootstrap is a promising new method that has proven demonstrably ... -

Computational simulations of ultraviolet radiation penetration into human skin
(University of St Andrews, 2021-11-30) - ThesisThis thesis concerns the development of numerical modelling simulations to predict how ultraviolet radiation (UVR) penetrates into human skin in a wavelength dependent manner. UVR has biological effects; for example, UVR ... -
Distinguishing standard from modified gravity in the local group and beyond
(University of St Andrews, 2018-06-27) - ThesisThe works in this portfolio test the hypothesis that it is not possible to extrapolate the Newtonian inverse square law of gravity from Solar System to galaxy scales. In particular, I look into various tests of Modified ... -
Modelling non-Markovian quantum systems using tensor networks
(University of St Andrews, 2020-07) - ThesisAccurately modelling the behaviour of quantum systems interacting with the environment is vital to the development of quantum technology. Open quantum systems are well understood when the influence of their environment ...
