Winter Project: Dark Matter and Its Contenders

Project under Dr. Rahul Shrivastava, IISER Bhopal. Approached Dark Matter Phenomenology using Particle Physics (BSM). Referred to Dr. Gianfranco Bertone's white paper and book. Also worked on limiting cases of neutrino physics under constraints imposed by solar, atmospheric, and supernova neutrinos.

Approaching Dark matter from particle physics stand of view introduces topics like Freeze-out mechanism and uses various particles proposed by SUSY and other mechanisms/models.

Summer Project: Using Higgs-like induced gravity model to explain Gravitational Baryogenesis

In this project, I explored the origin of cosmic matter through the lens of modified-gravity thermodynamics by taking GR as an eqm limit of Scalar-tensor theories. In scalar-tensor baryogenesis, evolving scalar can generate a chemical potential that favors matter over antimatter. We connected these two pictures by expressing the baryogenesis source in terms of the effective thermodynamic variables of scalar-tensor gravity. I specifically used Non-minimally Coupled Higgs-like Model / Induced-Gravity Limit and tried to assess whether this offers a clear and consistent interpretation of matter generation in modified gravity.

Summer Internship: Decoherence in Scalar NSI interactions in Neutrino Oscillation Dynamics

Internship Project under Dr. N. K. Deepthi. I was working on a mixing matrix approach to Scalar non-standard interactions(Snsi) for which I found effective mixing matrices and tried finding analytical expression which currently seem unfeasible considering exponentially increasing number of terms with increasing order as we attempted using all Snsi parameters at a time which hasnt been done as of now. This approach provided an easy way into OQS and decoherence study in Snsi and espescially focused on DUNE experiment. Our formulation can also be extended to include Vector NSI elements too.You can request relevant pdf if necessary. We are hoping to upload an arXiv preprint soon.

Summer Project: Non Hermitian Dynamics in 2-flavour Neutrino Oscillations

Internship Project under Dr. Poonam Mehta. Working on understanding OQS and Quantum Information especially topics like Markovian and Non-Markovian Processes as well as Bell Theorem. After this we will expand our knowledge into Non Hermitian Quantum Mechanics keeping an eye for postulated physics. Our final goal would be centered around G-metric and density operator approach in Non Hermitian physics and trying to interpret 2-flavour oscillations in presece of such dynamics.
