Manisha 

Junior Research Scholar (Aug 2023 -)

manishachoudhary092002@gmail.com

Area - Physical properties of intermetallics

My research interest lies in exploring the magnetic and electrical transport properties of intermetallics.

Manshi Rani (PMRF Fellow)

Junior Research Scholar (Aug 2022 -)

manshirani1999@gmail.com

Area - Frustrated 2-D rare earth-based systems

My research interest is to realize the possible exotic magnetic ground states like  quantum spin liquid, spin ice, low dimensional magnetism, spin glass etc. in geometrically frustrated magnets. 2-D rare earth based systems are appealing for investigation of these magnetic phases.
