I am a professor of Physics at Physics Department, GU. At present, we are a group of five (5) researchers out of which there are four (4) graduate students, whom I supervise. They areĀ working in some of the important diverse areas of physics and applied physics such as nonlinear dynamics, plasma simulation, and magnetospheric physics etc. Rcently my fellow colleague and wife Dr Kalpana Bora has collaborated with us in our very recent work on COVID-19 pandemic.
Hitendra has developed a plasma simulation code based on Flux-Corrected-Transport (FCT). He has extensively studied various space debris problems in LEO plasma. He has also worked on the multiphase interstellar medium and its fragmentation due to thermal instability.
Presently, he has submitted his PhD thesis.
Mridusmita worked on the effect of charged debris in LEO plasmas. She is in the process of submitting her PhD thesis.
Bikramjit is involved in studying complex nonlinear behaviour, which can be triggered by charged debris in a flowing plasma. Presently, he is investigating how the Physics-Informed Neural Network (PINN) can be used to understand magnetospheric plasma oscillations.
Deeptarag joined only last August, and he's the newest member of the group.
Presently, he is into his pre-PhD coursework..
Suniti worked on PIC simulation. She has been involved in developing an independent PIC code for dusty plasma simulation.
Debashis works in the field of Nonlinear Dynamics. His specific interests are in mathematical modelling of biological and physical phenomena, bifurcation analysis, and chaos theory.
Murchana works on magnetospheric plasma and is also involved in analysing Aditya-L1 data.
Rinku studied plasma sheath, especially the lunar plasma sheath.
Rajita's work was related to the polarisation effect in complex plasmas.
Balen Choudhury worked on nonlinear plasma waves in e-i and complex plasmas.
Dipak Sarma was my first graduate student who started studying nonlinear dynamical phenomena in plasmas.
Manasi was my first graduate student. She worked on thermal instability in expanding plasmas. She has now changed her research field to nanomaterials and condensed matter physics.
Dr Kalpana Bora (Professor of Physics at GU) has collaborated with us in the COVID-19 work. Her research interests include neutrino physics and dark matter.
