Electronic and magnetic materials are the central focus of our group's research. We study a wide variety of types of materials such as nanostructures, thin films, multilayered heterostructures, and bulk polycrystals and single crystals. We have interests in several areas including the interplay between electronic transport and magnetism in novel materials, and the study of interfaces between di...

P RESENT day interest in the high-speed performance of hydrofoil boats, ship propellers, pumps, and turbines has resulted in an intensive study of cavitation in liquid flows. During this process the flow field changes significantly from that of a homogenous single-phase flow. Forces, pressure distributions, and other performance characteristics are then correspondingly altered and these changes...

Amending Leighton and Micali's Key Distribution Protocol

A key distribution protocol is a set of rules by which two users can establish a shared common key between them and then use the key in future secure communications. We analyze a key distribution protocol presented by Leighton and Micali at the CRYPTO'93 conference, which is based on tamper-proof hardware, and show that the protocol fails in that a common key shared between two users can always...
