First-principles study of electronic properties of one dimensional nanostructures
(, 2010-05)
Scope and Method of Study:
Development and applications of infrared structural biology
(2014-05)
Aspartic acid (Asp), Glutamic acid (Glu) and Tyrosine (Tyr) often play critical roles at the active sites of proteins. Probing the structural dynamics of functionally important Asp/Glu and Tyr provides crucial information ...
Coherent interference effects and squeezed light generation in optomechanical systems
(2015-12)
My Ph.D dissertation is on the fundamental effects in optomechanical systems (OMS) and their important applications. The OMS are based on the possibility of the mechanical motion produced by few photons incident on the ...
Electromagnetically induced transparency and quantum effects in optomechanical systems
(2011-12)
In this thesis, we study cooling, normal mode splitting, squeezing, entanglement, and electromagnetically induced transparency in the macroscopic optomechanical system. We show that a type I optical parametric amplifier ...
Comparison of plastics used in tissue equivalent proportional counters (TEPC) and development of a balloon borne TEPC
(2012-12)
This study investigates alternatives to A-150 tissue equivalent plastic for use in the construction of tissue equivalent gas-filled detectors for the measurement of dosimetric quantities. This study looks at four different ...
Role of cosmic rays in lightning initiation
(2014-07)
From electric field measurements, the maximum electric fields typically found within a thunderstorm are an order of magnitude too weak to initiate a lightning discharge. Relativistic electrons produced in galactic cosmic ...
Disorder effect in graphene and topological insulator
(2012-07)
Scope and Method of Study:
Study of secondary neutrons from uniform scanning proton beams by means of experiment and simulation
(2013-07)
Proton radiotherapy is becoming popular as an effective modality to treat cancer. However the advantages of the proton radiotherapy could be offset due to the effect of secondary neutrons. Secondary neutrons are an undesired ...
New ideas in Higgs physics
(2010-05)
The Higgs mechanism, which is responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking and unitarization of massive W plus or minus and Z scattering, is a fundamental ingredient of the Standard Model (SM). However, there is as yet ...
