The world is shifting towards renewable sources of energy at a very rapid pace to
mitigate climate change and meet the increasing energy demands. Renewable
sources of energy such as solar energy are very intermittent in ...
Subduction is a prominent geological process that occurs at convergent margins and it is
closely linked to natural disasters like volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and tsunamis. Over
the past several years numerical modelling ...
Predation is a major driving force for the evolution of an ecosystem through natural selection. It is responsible for transferring energy from one trophic level to the next. In the marine ecosystem, drilling and durophagous ...
To meet the current energy demands finding a clean, sustainable and efficient energy source is highly needful to replace fossil fuels. In response to this demand, developing an efficient H2 liberating system that would ...
We study the Spinor Helicity formalism used to represent scattering data in the calculation of scattering amplitudes and the spinorial formulation of Loop Quantum Gravity and establish a correspondence between the two. We ...
Tortoise beetles (Chiridopsis spp.) are herbivores of morning glory plants (Ipomoea spp.) and they exhibit high level of host specificity. In nature, we have observed these beetles aggregating only on host plants with a ...
Harnessing the properties of quantum systems – parallelism and quantum interference have
enabled us to demonstrate quantum supremacy over classical computers. Using the circuit model and quantum information processing is ...
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a gaseous molecule which can act as an inorganic substrate for
energy production. On the other hand, high concentrations of H2S can act as a poison by
inhibiting cellular respiration, but the ...
Rotation curves of galaxies trace their gravitational potential and provide key information about the mass distribution within them. These were one of the first indicators about the presence of a new form of matter that ...
Microbiota play an important role in regulating host development, physiology and behavior. The hologenome theory suggests that the host and microbiota form the holobiont upon which selection acts. Variation in the host or ...
Deep learning is being widely used for de novo generation of molecules. Molecules can
be represented in the form of string of characters, SMILES representation, which allows the implementation of transformer architectures. ...
The frequency of floods and disasters have been increasing in the past few decades. The
reason behind these incidents could be varied: Climate change, urbanisation and change in
land-use patterns. We have taken the case ...
Predicting range expansions and biological invasions is a central challenge in global change research. While already non-trivial in a purely ecological context, this task becomes truly challenging when rapid evolution comes ...
In this thesis, we explore the effect of single qubit (electron) control techniques like Rabi
oscillations, Free Induction Decay (FID) and Dynamical Decoupling (DD), using microwave
(MW) pulse sequences. We characterize ...
This thesis aims to serve as an introduction to Topological Data Analysis (TDA), a collection
of methods that seek to quantify the topological and geometric features of data using
algebraic topology. The theory behind ...
This project attempts to study an inhomogeneous terminal-value problem related to the
option pricing PDE in a MMGBM model. This problem has not been studied before, to
the best of our knowledge. To begin with, the problem ...
Atmospheric aerosols are an essential component of Earth’s climate system that
interact with the radiation falling on Earth through direct, indirect and semi-direct effects.
Multiple studies have explored the impact of ...
The Standard Model is a very successful model of fundamental particles. But it is not considered to be a complete theory as it fails to explain many known phenomena. There have been many attempts to complete this theory ...
Control of quantum mechanical systems has become an important topic of research in recent
years due to quantum supremacy: quantum mechanical information processing devices have
the potential to solve problems that are ...
The horizontal structure, propagation characteristics, and the physical processes influencing the strength and interannual variability of convectively coupled Kelvin waves
(CCKW) are studied using satellite observation ...
