Hi, I am Sudip Chakraborty, a final year PhD student in the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai. My main area of interest is high energy astrophysical phenomena in compact astrophysical objects. I am primarily an observational astronomer, specializing in X-ray observations, although I have some experience in handling UV and radio data. As a part of my doctoral dissertation, I study thermal and non-thermal X-ray emission from transient black hole sources, from Galactic (Black Hole X-ray Binaries) to extragalactic (Tidal Disruption Events) scales.
