Predoctoral: IOPB, 1997.
Ph.D.:  2002, IOPB
Research Interests : I worked with Dr. AjitM. Srivastava ( my supervisor ) on a new scenario of formation of domainsofDisoriented Chiral Condensates in a Heavy-Ion Collision. I have experimentallystudied the Correlated Defect-Antidefect production in nematic liquidcrystals.For this study we used the new Lieca microscope, and wasable to experimentally verify certain crucial features of the underlyingmechanism of topological defectproduction. For the last  few days  I was workingon a new scenario for topological defect productionwithout phase transition.
