Biographical Sketch
Ritika Dusad received her Ph.D. from Cornell University under the supervision
of Prof. Sèamus Davis. In her dissertation work, she designed and built a novel
spin noise spectrometer that has led to the discovery of Magnetic Monopole Noise
in Dysprosium Titanate. The results of that study are presented in this thesis.
Remarkably, the motion of magnetic monopoles and frustration of the magnets she
studied can actually be heard at temperatures between 1K and 4K. Ritika Dusad was
born and raised in Delhi, India and studied physics at University of California, Los
Angeles as an undergraduate student. She is an expert in conceptualizing, designing
and building experiments for low temperature physics. In her spare time she likes to
sing Hindustani Classical Music, paint, and read fiction written by Indian authors.
