Aspects of time dependence in quantum quenches
In this thesis we study the time dependence of correlators such as Green function, entanglement (Renyi) entropy and mutual information following quantum quench in Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) and their holographic duals ... -
Assesment Of Air Quality And Anthropogenic Aerosol Fraction Over India Using Observations And Model
(2014-12-11)Air quality degradation is emerging to be an issue of major concern in India. Recent investigations have shown that anthropogenic aerosols have significant impact on climate as well as on health. In fourth assessment report ... -
Assessing protein contribution to phenotypic change using short, coarse grained molecular dynamics simulations
Understanding the functional mapping between genotype and phenotype is an important problem that has ramifications for various diseases. Various existing computational methods can infer these disease-related functional ... -
Assessing the potential of stable calcium isotope ratios for paleotemperature reconstruction from studies of laboratory-precipitated inorganic carbonates and modern corals, fish otoliths and foraminifera
Determining paleo-seawater composition and temperature is critical for reconstructing Earth’s surface conditions through time and has major implications for understanding the origin and evolution of life on Earth. ... -
Assessing the state of the glaciers in the Parvati basin of the Himalaya under a changing climate
The Himalayan cryosphere is one of the most climate-sensitive components of the Earth's system, acting as a critical water tower for millions of people across South Asia. Snow and glacier melt from this region contribute ... -
Assessment and Monitoring Of Hydrometeorological Variables And Extreme Conditions for Present and Future Climate Change Scenarios
Monitoring and assessment of Hydrological/hydrometeorological Variables (HVs) like streamflow, soil moisture, precipitation, and temperature are essential for various applications such as prediction/forecasting of natural ... -
Assessment of Direct Radiative Effects of Aerosols using Assimilated Datasets over the Indian Region
Uncertainties in estimation of radiative effects of aerosols, pose the primary challenge for the accurate climate impact assessment of aerosols. Especially, over the Indian region which is characterized by significant ... -
Assessment of Environmental Issues And Biodegradation Aspects of Current MSW Practices of Developing Country Metropolises - A Case Study of Bangalore
(2017-10-18)Municipal solid waste (MSW) production has significantly increased in the rapidly urbanizing developing world and also changed composition with increased decomposable organic fraction in MSW (OFMSW) and plastics content. ... -
Assessment of factors influencing production and marketing of groundnut and sunflower in Peninsular India
Oilseeds are an important component in India’s agriculture and annually around 24 m. ha are planted to oilseeds with a production of around 24 m. t. In spite of significant growth achieved in oilseed production and ... -
Assessment of Leachate Characteristics and Geotechnical Properties of Municipal Solid Waste Landfill
(2018-01-04)Solid Waste Management is one of the essential services provided by local bodies to keep the urban areas clean. Often it is poorly rendered as it is unscientific, out-dated and inefficient. With the rapid increase in ... -
An Assessment Of Nanoscience And Nanotechnology (NST) Initiatives In India
(2013-06-12)Technology is the ‘engine of economic growth’ and technological progress is the most important factor driving a nation’s sustained economic growth. New technologies assume significant and long term role in this process of ... -
Assessment Of Seismic Hazard With Local Site Effects : Deterministic And Probabilistic Approaches
(2013-04-26)Many researchers have pointed out that the accumulation of strain energy in the Penninsular Indian Shield region may lead to earthquakes of significant magnitude(Srinivasan and Sreenivas, 1977; Valdiya, 1998; Purnachandra ... -
Assessment of the dielectric behaviour of some liquid impregnated systems
This thesis reports the results of an extensive investigation carried out to develop a possible alternative to polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs) which are being banned in most countries due to their toxicity and poor biodegradability. ... -
An Assessment Of The Simulation Of Monsoon And Inter Tropical Convergence Zone In Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Models
(2010-10-08)Monsoons and Intertropical Convergence Zones (ITCZ) exhibit variability at various temporal and spatial scales. The temporal scale of variability encompasses scales from the intraseasonal through interannual to interdecadal ... -
Assessment of University Technology Transfer Efficiency in the Context of Medical Device Technologies
