This thesis proposes a study on the relationship between credit cycles and sectoral risks in the Indian context. The research will use a novel credit cycle index and a novel sectoral risk indicator based on firm-level data ...
Many animals (including humans) change the loudness of their vocal signals according to distance from a receiver and background noise. The mechanisms underlying this change remain poorly understood. The song of the male ...
The song of the adult male zebra finch is an example of a learned motor sequence consisting of a sequence of sounds interleaved by silent gaps. As with any motor action, the song of the zebra finch is subject to motor ...
Plastic pollution is rapidly increasing globally, posing a threat to marine organisms. Microplastics negatively impact the biological processes of marine organisms when ingested. It is still unclear how microplastics ...
Spintronics is an emerging field of physics which deals with the spin degree of freedom of electron. It has the potential to be applied in future devices. Various discoveries were made which contributed to the growth of ...
Heatwaves are large deviations of near-surface temperatures from the climatology, over a period of around a week to sometimes as long as a month. In addition to severely impacting human health, heatwaves also affect the ...
The innate immune response in mammalian cells is a primary defense mechanism against pathogen invasions. The activation of highly sensitive sensors called pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) precedes the initiation of the ...
Gene therapy has emerged in the last decade as a widely studied and implemented group of unique therapeutic modalities. Though still young and investigational in nature, it has generated significant traction, with many ...
The framework of the Renormalization Group (RG) forms the foundation of the present
understanding of Critical Phenomena, but its fixed points and predictions pertaining to physical quantities, are normally characterized ...
As all feminist trajectories branch from epistemological intersectionalities, feminist movements in India also find themselves battling a regressive patriarchal force with layered variables. Studying these movements in ...
ULIRGs, or Ultra-Luminous Infra Red Galaxies, are incredibly bright galaxies that emit intense Infra Red (IR) radiation due to the merger of two gas-rich galaxies. The intense star formation due to the merger generates a ...
The study here analyses the distribution of soil organic carbon and stable carbon isotopic ratio with depth and among particle size fractions in two forests from Dehradun, Uttarakhand, and Muzaffaranagar, Uttar Pradesh. ...
This research aims to create a system that predicts agricultural yields using an all-encompassing system that integrates Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) with machine learning. We want to know if combining NWP and ML ...
Classically, the thermodynamics of near extremal black holes fails below a certain temperature. To avoid this problem, the existence of a “thermodynamic mass gap” between the extremal state and the lightest near extremal ...
PSR J102347.6 +003841 (also known as PSR J1023) is one of three known transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSP). We analyze EPIC X-ray data from the XMM-Newton satellite to probe multiple X-ray states of this star. By analyzing ...
Topological Weyl semimetals demonstrate interesting properties like exotic surface fermi arcs and chiral Weyl points, making them a strong candidate for many potential applications in electronics, optoelectronics, and ...
Evolutionary therapies for cancer understand malignancies as adapting populations under Darwinian selection. They use concepts from ecology and evolutionary biology to deal with the emergence of resistance in these ...
Development of clean and renewable energy scavenging methods is of growing interest to meet the global mandate of reducing the carbon footprint. Mechanical force is an abundant resource of energy that is readily available ...
Agricultural sector comprises the biggest workforce in the country. A country like India has historically earned its livelihood and based its economy around agriculture. It is only logical to look at all the possible aspects ...
In this thesis, we take a closer look at the Erdos-Hajnal Conjecture. A Graph $H$ is said to have the Erdos-Hajnal (EH) property if, for some constant $\gamma(H) > 0$, every sufficiently large $H$-free graph $G$ has a ...
