Outreach Program at Shivalik Plasma Laboratory, IIT Jammu 

On 17th May 2024, our Shivalik Plasma Laboratory hosted an outreach event for 11th and 12th-grade science students from International Delhi Public School, Jammu. The students delved into the fascinating world of plasma physics and supercomputing, exploring topics like Fusion Energy, Dusty Plasma, and Radio-Frequency Plasma. They witnessed amazing demonstrations, including the formation of Radio-Frequency Plasma and Dusty Plasma, and learned about Rayleigh-Taylor Turbulence using ink dispersion atop water and the plasma ball. The event also featured a 3D-printed model of a Tokamak for magnetic confinement fusion.

Funded by the Science and Engineering Board, India, this initiative underscores our commitment to inspiring the next generation of scientists and engineers. 🚀🔬.

Mr. Ajaz Mir delivered a contributed talk in APS DPP 2022

Mr. Ajaz Mir, the fourth-year graduate student, delivered an online contributed talk at the 64th Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics

The title of the talk was "Bispectral analysis of nonlinear mixing in dusty plasma."

Our work  "Rayleigh-Taylor Instability in Strongly Coupled Plasma"  has been published in Nature Scientific Reports.

In this work, we have studied the effect of strong coupling on Rayleigh-Taylor Instability (RTI). We observe that the growth rate of RTI decreases with increasing Coulomb coupling strength. Our results could be helpful to the fusion research community where RTI is known to be the main spoiler for the energy dumping mechanisms.
