3D Dosimetry using optical tomography and electronic portal images
The primary goal of this thesis is to develop techniques to quantify the radiation dose distributions used in radiotherapy for cancer treatment. It aims at developing a physically profound calculation model for the transit ... -
Analytical Mellin-Barnes techniques with applications to two-loop SU(3) chiral perturbation theory and QED at higher loops
The present era is one of precision in particle physics. To account for the lacunae in the otherwise successful Standard Model, observables are calculated to high precision in various theoretical models, which are then ... -
Applications of Holography
This thesis consists of four parts. In the first part of the thesis, we investigate the phase structure of Einstein-Maxwell-Scalar system with a negative cosmological constant. For the conformally coupled scalar, an ... -
Aspects of conformal field theories at finite temperature
In this thesis we have studied broadly two aspects of thermal field theory. We began by examining how the macroscopic system (described by relativistic hydrodynamics) behalves in presence of microscopic anomalies. We ... -
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 ... -
Carbon nanomaterials for energy and environmental applications
Environmental pollution and energy storage are two important issues in the modern day society. In this regard, Carbon nanomaterials have attained immense importance, due to their high surface area and electrical conductivity ... -
Charge Transport in Molecular Systems
Understanding charge transport in molecular systems is of fundamental interest in rapidly growing field of molecular electronics as well as to understand biological signal transfer processes which are accompanied by the ... -
A computational systems biology approach for elucidating molecular features of primary and metastatic melanoma
Malignant melanoma, a cancer arising from melanocytes, is reported to have one of the fastest growing incidence rates worldwide, and is considered to be one of the most aggressive human malignancies. According to the ... -
Conductance Fluctuations in High-mobility Graphene Field Effect Transistors
In the past decade, a major fraction of the research carried out in condensed matter physics has been dedicated to address the unique physical properties of single layer graphene (SLG). Different properties of Dirac ... -
Correlation Functions in the Finite Toom Model
This thesis is divided into four chapters. In Chapter 1, we give some basic definitions and results that we need throughout the thesis. In Chapter 2, we describe the pn0;n1q-Toom model and prove some known results about ... -
Crystalline Silicon Carbide Thin Films for Ultraviolet Detection
UV light detection has a lot of applications including secured satellite communication, solar and celestial observation and biological imaging. Wide bandgap materials are used to sense UV light. SiC is an excellent material ... -
Decomposition of the tensor product of Hilbert modules via the jet construction and weakly homogeneous operators
Let ½ Cm be a bounded domain and K :£!C be a sesqui-analytic function. We show that if ®,¯ È 0 be such that the functions K® and K¯, defined on £, are non-negative definite kernels, then theMm(C) valued function ... -
Dendrimer Interactions with Cell Membrane and Pore Forming Toxins
Dendrimers are hyper-branched polymeric nanoparticles with a central core molecule connected by successive dendritic branching layers. The structure controlled parameters of den-drimers such as size, shape, surface chemistry, ... -
Design and Development of Non-intrusive Optical Probes for Quantitative Analysis of Flow Fields in Hypersonic Shock Tunnels
This thesis describes the development of light-based, non-interfering interrogation tools for quantitative assessment of density variations in hypersonic flows over the test models of interest in aerodynamics. Since flow ... -
Development of Cryocooler Based High Performance Cryosorption Pump
The aim of this work is to develop high performance cryosorption (or cryoadsorption) pumps specifically for fusion applications. An actual cryopump for the above application will use the supercritical liquid helium flow ... -
