Magnetic braking as a solution to the angular momentum problem of ellptical galaxies
The following idea is explored in this thesis: the angular momentum problem of elliptical galaxies can be solved by invoking magnetic braking operating during the formative phases of protoelliptical galaxies. For reducing ... -
Study of giant radio galaxies.
Within the framework of the beam model, we have deduced some basic physical parameters of the jets and hotspots associated with classical double radio sources, following a simple approach which is based on the assumptions ... -
Dissipative dynamics of classical and quantum systems
The organization is as follows. In Chapter II we introduce specific systems of interest, such as RBCs, microemulsions, tethered surfaces, and monolayer films of smectic-A and smectic-B systems. In Chapter III we calculate ... -
Effect of a QSO on its host galaxy
Various arguments and observations have led to a general belief that QSO phenomenon is a form of violent activity in the nuclei of galaxies. It is natural to expect that a powerful source of high energy radiation like a ... -
Unified geometrical framework for gauge symmetries
The effort to discover a conceptual unity among various phenomena in the physical world is one of the major intellectual endeavours of the human mind. It is surprising that Nature apparently supports such an instinct, for, ... -
Charged solution excitations and the vaccum state of.. field theories
This thesis describes some theoretical investigations on ?? field theories (i.e., theories governed by Lagrangians which are sixth-degree polynomials in ?) where ? is either a real or a complex scalar field. We work in ... -
Superconducting electron pairing in the presence of a radiation field
The thesis discusses superconducting electron pairing in the presence of a radiation field. This phenomenon also called photo-induced superconductivity was studies by kumar and Sinha in 1968. It was found that microwave ... -
Topics in the statistical mechanics of extended objects
In this thesis, we study some aspects of the equilibrium and nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of physical systems with extended spatial degrees of freedom. The specific systems we model are: The Abrikosov fiux lattice ... -
Study Of the Cometary Globules in the Gum Nebula
From our analysis of the measured velocities of cometary globules (CGs), we draw the following conclusions: Kinematic Interpretation The motion of the CGs cannot be explained by a model dominated by galactic rotation, ... -
Study of radio emissions from clusters of galaxies: CD galaxies and the very steep spectrum sources
(a) An important conclusion regarding the probability of radio emission associated with the brightest galaxy in the centre of a cluster containing a VSSS (Very Steep Spectrum Source) can be drawn from the study of Table ... -
Analytic and numerical studies of neural network models of associative memory
In this thesis, we have used analytical and numerical methods to study the behaviour of neural network models for the storage, classification and associative recall of information. In Part A, we have studied a class of ... -
Thermopower probing the effect of interaction and strong correlation in twisted multilayer graphene moir´e
Two-dimensional quantum materials, especially graphene-based van der Waals heterostructures, have been at the forefront of a new era in scientific research and technological breakthroughs. From field-effect transistors to ... -
Synthesis of Novel (111) Facet Cubic Phase SnO2 Thin Films for Gas Sensing and Perovskite Solar Cell Applications
The tetragonal phase is a well-known phase of SnO2, which shows high stability under ambient conditions. SnO2 has been used in many applications, such as transparent conductive electrodes (TCEs), gas sensors, photocatalysis, ... -
Unravelling the low-frequency radio secrets of Galactic star-forming regions with the uGMRT
Star-forming regions are dynamic environments shaped by the complex interplay of various astrophysical processes and objects. On one hand, massive stars during their evolutionary phases ionise the surrounding interstellar ... -
Understanding and tailoring defects in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides for single photon emission
Full text Embargo up to Oct 15, 2026 Point defects in monolayer (ML) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can behave as single photon emitters (SPEs). SPEs enable foundational quantum phenomena like entanglement and ... -
Curvature Generation in Self-Assembled Fluid Membranes
The ability of thin sheets to curve into complex three-dimensional shapes underlies diverse biological processes. We study curvature generation in fluidic membranes using the model system colloidal membrane, which is ... -
High-Velocity Skyrmions : Engineering, Memristors and Random Number Generation
Non-collinear spin textures have become very important in both fundamental research and technology. One of the most interesting examples of these textures is the skyrmion. A skyrmion is a small, vortex-like spin pattern ... -
Machine-Learning-Based investigations in Complex Systems: Droplet Coalescence, Ising-type models, and Mathematical Models for Cardiac Tissue
The importance of artificial intelligence and data driven machine learning is growing exponentially in time as are its applications in investigations of complex phenomena in, e.g., climate-systems science, fluid flows, ... -
Exploring Scalar-Tensor Theories of Gravity in Light of Tensions and Anomalies in Standard Cosmology
The $\Lambda$CDM model, the standard model of cosmology, has been highly successful in describing a wide range of cosmological observations. However, in the era of precision cosmology, it faces increasing challenges in the ... -
Investigating Magnetic Transitions and the Quantum Spin Liquid State in Complex Oxides
Magnetic properties emerge from the interplay of spin, crystal structures, and external factors such as temperature, magnetic fields, and pressure, resulting in a diverse range of magnetic phenomena with potential applications ...
