Shaping macroscopic 2-D thin elastic sheets through differential strains in the system is a widely studied phenomenon applicable in diverse areas such as flexible electronics, origami and tissue growth. In contrast, at the ...

Dipolar couplings are one of the major source of structural information. Due to their dependence on the distance between the nuclei and the angle of orientation of the dipolar vector with respect to the magnetic field, ...

Topological insulators host exotic metallic states on their surfaces even when the bulk is insulating. The distinctive conducting surfaces of topological insulators present a novel domain for investigating the physics of ...

The detailed nature of radio emission processes of pulsars and the exact location and distribution of the pulse emitting regions are still shrouded with mystery. Pulsars with drifting subpulses are considered as an important ...

Soft condensed matter (SCM) systems are ubiquitous in nature. SCM systems contain mesoscopic structures in the size range 10 nm to 1 am that are held together by weak entropic forces. These materials are therefore easily ...

In this chapter the application of solid state NMR techniques for the investigation of biodegradable polymers which have wide range of applications in various fields have been presented. Among many polymer systems poly ...

The CFT in two dimensions is useful to understand critical phenomena of statistical mechanics in two dimensions [1,2]. The study of CFTs on sphere and higher genus Riemann surfaces is important because of the usefulness ...
