Dr Santosh Kumar is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology, Dharwad, India. He completed PhD from Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, India. His research areas include Superconductivity and Magnetism. In his PhD, he studied the vortex phase transitions, vortex phase diagram and some metastability effects in the single crystals of some low Tc superconductors via detailed magnetization and electrical resistivity measurements.
At University of Warwick, UK, he worked as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Superconductivity and Magnetism group where he worked on some rare-earth transition-metal based permanent magnets.
