Mesophases Of Active Matter : Translational Order, Critical Rheology And Electrostatics
(2016-04-26)This thesis consists of research work in the broad area of soft condensed matter theory with a focus on active matter. The study of long wavelength, low frequency collective behavior of active particles (bacterial suspensions, ... -
Mesoscopic Heat engines beyond the Limits of Thermodynamics
Despite the central role that Equilibrium thermodynamics has played in our understanding of many body systems, the underlying theoretical construct is strictly correct only in the ‘Thermodynamic Limit’. On the other hand, ... -

Minimal Crystallizations of 3- and 4- Manifolds
(2018-06-11)A simplicial cell complex K is the face poset of a regular CW complex W such that the boundary complex of each cell is isomorphic to the boundary complex of a simplex of same dimension. If a topological space X is homeomorphic ... -
Mixed Alkali Effect in Oxyfluoro Vanadate Glasses And The Effect of Rare Earth Ions on Oxyfluoro Tellurite Glasses - A Spectroscopic Study
(2017-09-20)The main motivation of this thesis is to study the long standing problem of mixed alkali effect (MAE) in oxyfluro vanadate glass systems from the point of view of structural arrangement and to investigate the effect of two ... -
Mixed Norm Estimates in Dunkl Setting and Chaotic Behaviour of Heat Semigroups
(2018-01-03)This thesis is divided into three parts. In the first part we study mixed norm estimates for Riesz transforms associated with various differential operators. First we prove the mixed norm estimates for the Riesz transforms ... -
Model Studies Of The Hot And Dense Strongly Interacting Matter
(2016-04-25)Ultra-relativisitic heavy ion collisions produce quark gluon plasma-a hot and dense soup of deconfined quarks and gluons akin to the early universe. We study two models in the context of these collisions namely, Polyakov ... -
Modeling the solar magnetic cycle
The intriguing variety of activities displayed by the Sun naturally awakens human curiosity. Also, by virtue of its physical proximity, the Sun serves as an excellent astrophysical laboratory for testing our theoretical ... -
Modelling, Fabrication and Characterization of HgCdTe Infrared Detectors for High Operating Temperatures
(2018-02-23)In this work, we have designed, simulated, fabricated and characterized homojunction Hg1-xCdxTe detector for high operating temperature in the MWIR region. The IR photon detectors need cryogenic cooling to suppress thermal ... -
