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 ... -
Tailoring Van – der – Waal materials for nonlinear nanophotonics
Van der Waals or two-dimensional (2D) material are emerging nanomaterials which has shown tremendous potential in building next-generation nonlinear optical devices. Monolayer and multilayer 2D materials exhibit strong ... -
Room Temperature Phosphorescence and Circularly Polarized Luminescence Characteristics of Phosphine Oxides and Phosphoramides
Room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials have attracted much attention in recent years owing to their potential applications in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), security writing, time-gated bio-imaging, ... -
A Ligase IV/XRCC4-dependent single strand break repair pathway for the maintenance of A/T-rich regions during DNA replication in mammals
The DNA in our cells is under constant threat from various exogenous and endogenous sources. To ensure error free and faithful transmission of hereditary material, human cells employ several DNA repair pathways. Mammalian ... -
Investigating Instability Mitigation through Flame Oscillator Synchronization
Stringent emission regulations for reducing NOx and soot emissions are driving gas turbine combustors manufacturers to adopt lean premixed combustion technology. However, the rich dynamics of turbulent, lean premixed ... -
Inverse Material Design using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks and Ontology
Materials design is the process of tailoring materials with specific properties and performance characteristics to meet the particular needs of an application. It involves going back on the process-structure-property (PSP) ... -
Dereverberation of Speech Using Autoregressive Models of Sub-band Envelopes
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) based technologies are radically changing the way we interact with digital services and information. Most of these application leverage on hands-free speech, where talkers are able to ... -
Statistics of Conductance Fluctuations in 2D systems
Study of 2D materials is interesting due to the various phase transitions observed in these materials. I shall present the results obtained in the study of phase transi tions in three different 2D material systems – ... -
Studying the effect of Re on the Co-Ni-Al-Ti-Nb-Cr superalloy’s coarsening kinetics and establishing the high-throughput diffusion couple approach for alloy design
The studies are conducted to understand the effect of Re addition on microstructural evolution and coarsening kinetics of new Co-Ni-Al-Ti-Nb-Cr based superalloys. Lattice misfit is reduced by adding Re, confirmed from ... -
Thermodynamics of Protein Adsorption on Gold and Carbonaceous Nanoparticles Probed by Second Harmonic Light Scattering
Over the past two decades, interaction of small molecules, peptides, and proteins with nanoparticles of various shapes and size have been keenly pursued for two reasons: to find application of these nanoparticle-molecule ... -
Microstructure – texture - mechanical property correlation in additively manufactured stainless Steel 316L and Cu-Ni-Sn
Metal additive manufacturing (AM) has gained considerable interest in recent years because of its ability of near net shape building of the components, one-go production, ability to make intricate designs and minimized ... -
The role of polymer phase on rigidity percolation of ABS−spherical nickel microparticles composites
Percolation and rigidity transitions are very important phenomena in random heterogeneous microstructures, as various physical properties change abruptly at some critical volume fractions of one phase. The concepts of ... -
Potential Applications of Snail Mucus in Cartilage Repair and Fabrication of Porous 3D Scaffolds
Articular cartilage damage is a major challenge in orthopedics. This medical condition is exacerbated by the cartilage's inability to self-repair due to the non-vascularization of the tissue and many other factors. Several ... -
Linear and Nonlinear Ultrafast Time Resolved Spectroscopy of Topological Insulators, Weyl Semimetals and Semiconducting Nanowires
Ultrafast time resolved spectroscopy has recently gained immense significance due to its potential capability to explore the dynamics of photoexcited carriers in condensed matter systems. The technique has proved to be a ... -
Secondary Atomization of a Droplet in Diverse Interaction Settings
Secondary atomisation refers to the process by which liquid droplets, which are already in a dispersed state, are further atomised down into smaller droplets. This process occurs after primary atomisation, which is the ... -
Interfacial Studies Using Organized Organic and Inorganic Films
Interfaces play an important role in various fields, such as catalysis, charge transfer / electrochemical processes, chemical reactions, molecular electronics, wetting, and biology. Building functional structures with a ... -
Interaction of Ionising Radiations with Nanoparticles
The interaction of ionizing radiations such as alpha, beta, gamma, and X-rays with matter-at bulk has been studied intensively for many decades. However, the interaction of ionizing radiations with matter-at-nanoscale ... -
Anaerobic digestion characteristics of lignocellulosic feedstocks under solid-state stratified bed mode of fermentation
Lignocellulosic feedstocks have become potential materials for conversion to biomethane but possess varying compositions and densities (18-50kg/m3), requiring alternative approaches for evolving sustainable anaerobic ... -
Many-body classical chaos: A case study across thermal phase transitions and connection to quantum measurements
There has been enormous interest in understanding the emergence of thermal behavior in systems isolated from the environment, be it classical or quantum. For classical systems, it has been argued that chaos plays a vital ... -
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 ...
