Specialization: High Energy Nuclear and Particle Physics (Theoretical)
Equilibrium and
Non-Equilibrium Statistical Phenomena in extremely hot and dense relativistic
plasma: Formulation of transport coefficients like thermal conductivity,
electrical conductivity, shear and bulk viscosities of quark-gluon plasma in
regime relevant to collider experiments at RHIC and LHC as well as in superfluid and color superconducting cores of neutron stars.
Formulation of different equilibrium thermodynamic
properties to predict the inner composition of compact stars through
statistical modelling.
