Biography:
I joined the Integrated Ph.D. program at NCRA-TIFR in July 2018.
Did the first year of M.Sc. course work at the Department of Physics, Savitribai Phule Pune University followed by a year at IUCAA-NCRA Graduate School.
Currently working with Preeti Kharb for my doctoral research.
Research description:
The aim of my Ph.D. thesis is to probe the Fanaroff-Riley (FR) dichotomy and the Blazar Divide in radio-loud AGN belonging to the `complete' Palomar Green (PG) sample. We seek to examine the polarization at low radio frequencies to look for differences in the kpc-scale magnetic field structures between RL quasars and BL Lacs. Our aim is to understand why and how jets are different between the FR sub-classes and if this difference is due to intrinsic properties related to the SMBH - accretion disk systems, or due to extrinsic properties like the density of kpc-scale environments, which influence the jet-medium interaction.
