Probing Accretion Geometries of X-ray Pulsars using Cyclotron Resonant Scattering Features
Cyclotron Resonant Scattering Features (CRSFs) appear as absorption-like features in the hard X-ray spectra of accretion-powered pulsars and provide a direct measure of neutron star magnetic fields. Their correlation or ... -
Probing Anisotropic Interactions In Solid State NMR : Techniques And Applications
(2011-06-30)The thesis aims at methodological developments in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and study of oriented samples like liquid crystals and single crystals and powder samples. Though methodological development in solid state ... -
Probing charge-density waves and superconductivity in low-dimensional systems
The recent advent of two-dimensional materials has led to the discovery of materials with fascinating phase diagrams. These systems have exciting electronic phases which coexist or compete with each other. Here in this ... -
Probing effect of disorder in the electrical and optical properties on van der Waals heterostructure
In this thesis, we studied the transport properties of single-layer graphene and single-layer to few-layer MoS2. We also studied the optical properties of MoS2 based single-layer, twisted bilayer devices. The main observations ... -
Probing Electronic States in Twisted Bilayer Graphene with Electric Fields: A study of Superconductivity, Non-Local Resistance, Magnetoresistance Hysteresis, and Thermoelectric Effects
Introducing a `twist' degree of freedom to modify the low energy band structures and engineer novel electronic phases from the constituent van der Waals 2D materials, was proposed theoretically more than a decade earlier ... -
Probing Higgs Boson Interactions At Future Colliders
(2010-11-11)We present in this thesis a detailed analysis of Higgs boson interactions at future colliders. In particular we examine, in a model independent way, the sensitivity of an Linear Collider in probing the interaction of ... -
Probing Magnetic And Structural Properties Of Metallic Nanowires Using Resistivity Noise
(2013-07-19)The main focus of this thesis work has been the study of domain wall (DW) dynamics in disordered cylindrical nanomagnets. The study attempts to accurately quantify the stochasticity associated with driven (temperature/magnetic ... -
Probing our universe with sunyaev - Zel'dovich effect
In this thesis, we look at both thermal Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (SZ) distortion as well as kinematic Sunyaev-Zel’dovich distortion of the Cosmic Microwave Background due to several possible astrophysical sources, namely, clusters ... -
Probing phase transition and anisotropy in magnetic insulator based heterostructures employing magnon spin currents
Thermoelectric phenomena like the Seebeck and Peltier effects are known for more than two centuries with a wide range of applications. In 2008 Uchida et al. first demonstrated the phenomena called Spin Seebeck Effect (SSE) ... -
A Probing System for Dynamic Mode Atomic Force Microscopy Based on Specialized Probes
The dynamic mode atomic force microscope (AFM) is a versatile tool that uses a resonantly excited micro-cantilever probe to obtain a sample’s topography and to characterize its material properties. While a number of useful ... -
A Probing System with Replaceable Tips for Three Dimensional Nano-Metrology
(2018-06-14)With increase in the number of three dimensional (3-D) nanometer-scale objects that are being either fabricated or studied, there is a need to accurately characterize their geometry. While the Atomic force microscope (AFM) ... -
Probing the Beyond Standard Model Physics in Top Quark and Dark Matter Sectors
(2018-05-22)The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics provides the theoretical framework to describe the fundamental interactions among elementary constituents of matter. SM is supported by experiments to a high degree of accuracy, ... -
Probing the inflationary universe and reheating with primordial black holes and induced gravitational wave background
The direct observational test for the earliest phase of our universe comes from cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, which can only probe up to the recombination era. The only definitive event during the pre-recombination ... -
Probing the Nature of Dark Matter in the Universe
The dark matter is the most dominating matter candidate and a key driving force for the structure formation in the universe. Despite decade-long searches, the precise nature and particle properties of dark matter are ... -
Projective Modules and the Quillen Suslin Theorem
The notion of a module over a ring is a generalization of that of a vector space over a field k. The axioms are identical. But whereas every vector space possesses a basis, a module need not always have one. Modules ... -
Prolate Shaped Dark Matter Halo And The Galactic Warp
(2016-04-26)The physical explanation for the existence of the galactic warp is one of the major research areas in Astronomy. People have proposed various theories but nobody has yet given a convincing explanation. Most of the spiral ... -
Prompt and Displaced Signatures of Physics Beyond the Standard Model
The quest to understand our Universe’s fundamental particles and their interactions has led us to the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. Despite successfully explaining the weak, electromagnetic, and strong ... -
