  • Compact Objects

 

For more details, please check out my webpage and CV.

 

Courses:

1) Elementary Particle Physics (Spring 2025)

2) Advanced Topics in Astroparticle Physics (Autumn 2025)

 

Note: There is a vacancy for a project student (eventually to be upgraded to a JRF) under an Early Career Grant funded by the ANRF. The candidate should be at least NET/GATE/JEST qualified and be interested in working on topics in neutrinos/dark matter. For more details, please send me an email with your CV.
