    Determining properties of neutralino dark matter using high-energy neutrino events 
    Elieff, Stefan H. P. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 1998)
    Observational evidence and theoretical arguments indicate that most of the universe is made of dark matter. Supersymmetry, an extension of the standard model of particle interactions, provides a natural candidate for dark ...

    Neutrino emission by the photo production process in a hyper-accretion disk 
    MacInnis, David R. (David Robert), 1977- (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2004)
    MacFadyen & Woosley (1999) have studied two models of a hypernova, where a hyper-accreting disk is created in the core of a star. Their code requires an accurate model of local energy loss given by neutrino emission. An ...

    Structure formation with scalar-tensor gravitational theories 
    Mendes, Sandro de Oliveira (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2001)
    We study the evolution of linear density perturbations in a cosmological background described by scalar-tensor theories (STT) of gravity. The evolution of the density contrast δ is obtained using the Jeans formalism for ...
