and a small glimpse of my life
Namaskar!
I am Tilak and you're currently browsing my website.
I am a scientist at the Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre (VECC) located in the 'city of joy' Kolkata. VECC is a premier basic science research institute in India, funded by the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India. I'm working in the Experimental Nuclear Physics Division at this centre. One of my major research interests is to study the fundamental process of nuclear fusion and fission, in particular, the inhibition of fusion which is known as quasi-fission. It is believed that quasi-fission is the main culprit that hinders the formation of new super heavy elements (SHE). From the experiments carried out at our laboratory, we try to understand the dynamics of fusion-fission and quasi-fission reaction. These studies, I believe, will give us clue to choose the right kind of target and projectile combinations in order to synthesis the SHE. The detectors required for the experiments were indigenously designed and developed by us at our laboratory.
