A multiphoton collective phase is a multiphoton-scattering feature that cannot be reduced to a sequence of two-photon scattering events, and the three-photon "triad phas" is the smallest nontrivial example. Observing a higher-order…
Momentum space distributions of photons coming out of any light emitting materials/devices provide critical information about its underlying physical origin. Conventional methods of determining such properties impose specific…
The past decade has brought many innovations in optical design for 3D super-resolution imaging of point-like emitters, but these methods often focus on single-emitter localization precision as a performance metric. Here, we propose a simple…
Continuous and precise space-based photometry has made it possible to measure the orbital frequency modulation of pulsating stars in binary systems with extremely high precision over long time spans. Frequency modulation caused by binary…
In Run 8 at RHIC, STAR significantly enhanced its forward acceptance relative to previous years with the commissioning of a new detector, the Forward Meson Spectrometer (FMS). The large geometrical acceptance of the FMS allows us to extend…
Electron Multiplying CCDs (EMCCDs) are used much less often than they might be because of the challenges they offer camera designers more comfortable with the design of slow-scan detector systems. However they offer an entirely new range of…
Multiwire and microstrip porous detectors have been developed and investigated for DC operation. The multiwire porous detector consists of anode wires, an Al cathode and a gap between them filled with porous CsI. The microstrip porous…
Imaging spectroscopy is intended to be coupled with adaptive optics (AO) on large telescopes, such as EST, in order to produce high spatial and temporal resolution measurements of velocities and magnetic fields upon a 2D FOV. We propose a…

The dynamics of an optically trapped particle are often determined by measuring intensity shifts of the back-scattered light from the particle using position sensitive detectors. We present a technique which measures the phase of the…
I discuss the status of MCP-based photo-detector amplification sections and Cherenkov light sources for precise timing measurements of charged particles and gamma rays. Sub-psec resolution is predicted for the large pulses such as those…

Structured light 3D surface imaging is a school of techniques in which structured light patterns are used for measuring the depth map of the object. Among all the designed structured light patterns, phase pattern has become most popular…
We report deep Sub-Millimeter Array observations of 26 pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars with evolved inner disks. These observations measure the mass of the outer disk (r ~20-100 AU) across every stage of the dissipation of the inner disk (r <…
