Laser Ion acceleration uses intense laser flashes to heat electrons of a solid to enormous temperatures and propel these charged particles to extreme speeds. These…
Materials with self-adaptive mechanical responses have long been sought after in material science. Using computer simulations, researchers at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR),…
Chemical (gas, hydrocarbons, isotopes, isomers) separation technologies are essential to our daily lives. There are ongoing global efforts to simplify separation and purification processes using…
Some theories have stood strong for centuries and are taught in schools as part of the foundations of science. Naturally, these theories face their share…
Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) can provide nearly 10 times higher energy density compared to the present Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and hence are identified as one…
In massive particle accelerators, sub-atomic particles (like electrons) are sped up to super-high speeds comparable to the speed of light towards a target surface. The…
Lasers play a central role in several science and technology domains ranging from communication, bio-medical applications, molecular identification to atomic clocks. Many of these applications…
Machine learning approaches bank on the availability of large datasets. However, instances where extensive datasets are not available, for example: materials having a negative Poisson’s…
This one-minute summaries the research question Karan Bansal is currently working on. Karan is a Ph.D student working with Aprotim Mazumder at TIFR Hyderabad. This…
#NewSeries Alert! In the first video of the ‘In Focus’ series, we asked Stephy Jose (Ph.D student, Kabir Ramola’s research group at TIFRH) about what…
