Gravitomagnetism in general relativity and massive gravity
Özen, Gökçen Deniz; Tekin, Bayram; Department of Physics (2014)
In this thesis gravitomagnetic effects are analysed in some detail. Einstein’s equations for weak gravitational fields are derived. Using appropriate gauge fixings, metric perturbation is decomposed and degrees of freedom are identified. Physical degrees of freedom are chosen and it is proven that they characterize the propagation of gravitational waves. Production of gravitational waves is demonstrated as well as their effects on the polarization of test particles. Analogs of the Maxwell’s equations are de...
Particle content of quadratic and f (R-mu nu sigma rho) theories in (A)dS
Tekin, Bayram (2016-05-17)
We perform a complete decoupling of the degrees of freedom of quadratic gravity and the generic f(R-mu nu sigma rho) theory about any one of their possible vacua, i.e. maximally symmetric solutions, and find the masses of the spin-2 and spin-0 modes in explicit forms.
Structural interpretation of gabbroic rocks in Agacoren Granitoid, central Turkey: field observations and aeromagnetic data
Kadioglu, Yk; Ates, A; Güleç, Nilgün Türkan (1998-03-01)
Gabbroic rocks crop out commonly in different localities of the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex and are interpreted by many researchers as the remnants of a Neotethyan ophiolitic suite now observed as roof-pendants in the granitoids of the complex. In this study, the structural position of the gabbroic rocks within one of the granitoids of the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex, namely the Agacoren Granitoid, is determined by geological and aeromagnetic data from the central part of the pluton. The...
Plane wave decomposition with regularization using a single rotating microphone
Günel Kılıç, Banu; Hacıhabiboğlu, Hüseyin (2007-03-15)
Plane wave decomposition (PWD) is an effective method for the analysis of sound fields. The use of spherical and circular microphone arrays with PWD has been well studied. In this paper, it is shown that PWD is also possible by using the recordings from a single rotating half-cardioid microphone. The microphone output is considered as the matrix product of the rotated polar pattern of the microphone and the pressure field. It is shown that this equation can be solved for the pressure values of a virtual cir...
Thermoluminescence properties of fluorescent materials used in commercial lamps
Bulur, Enver; Wieser, A; Figel, M; Ozer, AM (1996-01-01)
The dosimetric properties of eight different fluorescent materials (FM) used in production of commercial fluorescent lamps were studied by thermoluminescence (TL). Taking into account the criteria for TL phosphors to be useful for radiation dosimetry, radiation sensitivity, thermal stability, shape of the glow curves, and effect of incandescence, UV and daylight on irradiated and non irradiated material were investigated. It was observed that most of the material can be used for radiation doses from 10 mu G...
