Driven Granular and Soft-matter : Fluctuation Relations, Flocking and Oscillatory Sedimentation
(2018-06-11)
Active matter refers to systems driven out of thermal equilibrium by the uptake and dissipation of energy directly at the level of the individual constituents, which then undergo systematic movement in a direction decided ...
Magnetic Ordering in Bulk and Nanoparticles of Certain Bismuth Based Manganites Bi1-xAxMnO3 (A = Ca, Sr) : Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and Magnetization Studies
(2018-05-07)
The study of bulk and nanoparticles of perovskite rare earth manganites has been an extensive area of research in the recent past due to their rich and interesting physics and potential applications [1-5]. Manganites have ...
Topology and Quantum Phases of Low Dimensional Fermionic Systems
(2018-05-21)
In this thesis, we study quantum phase transitions and topological phases in low dimensional fermionic systems. In the first part, we study quantum phase transitions and the nature of currents in one-dimensional systems, ...
Structural Studies on Thymidylate Kinase : Evolution, Specificity and Catalysis
(2018-05-30)
Thymidylate kinase (TMK) is a key enzyme for DNA synthesis. It occurs at the junction of the de novo and salvage pathways for the synthesis of deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP). Its inhibition affects cell viability, ...
Study of Evolved Stellar Populations in the Magellanic Clouds
(2018-06-05)
The Magellanic Clouds (MCs) consist of a pair of galaxies, the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), which are located at a distance of 50 kpc and 60 kpc, with stellar masses of 1010 M and 109 ...
Optical Diffraction Tomography for the Refractive Index Profiling of Objects with Large Space-Bandwidth product
(2018-05-25)
The primary goal of this work is to arrive at direction tomography (DT) algorithms freed from the severe linearization in the formulation, and as-assumptions on variation of the refractive index distribution (RID), involved ...
Structure and Dynamics of Interfacial Molecular Membranes
(2018-04-16)
This thesis describes the study on structure and dynamics of various kinds of molecular membranes in general. We have studied the morphological transition of colloidal as well as biologically relevant membranes and ...
Structure and Dynamics of Binary Mixtures of Soft Nanocolloids and Polymers
(2018-04-24)
Binary mixtures of polymers and soft nanocolloids, also called as polymer nanocomposites are well known and studied for their enormous potentials on various technological fronts. In this thesis blends of polystyrene grafted ...
Experimental and Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study of Viscosity of Polymer Nanocomposites
(2018-08-29)
One of the important dynamic parameter characterizing the properties of polymer nanocomposite is viscosity. It is a quantity of interest on macroscopic scale also. A thorough study of viscosity in case of polymer nanocomposite ...
