Research experience

Applied Science

Duke

University JET Quantum Optics Lab, Durham, NC.

Summer 2000 Developed an ultra low noise

photo-amplifier circuit. Fixed other customized

circuitries as a part of Atom Cooling and Trapping Lab

Tata Institute of Fundamental Research Gravitation Lab, Mumbai.

Summer 1998

Customized a precision

step-rotor for gravitational equivalence experiment. Developed a code in BASIC to

interface experiment’s data acquisition system. Awarded Graduate Fellowship

based on my performance in the internship.

Theoretical

Physics

Used

C/C++ codes and ran several Monte Carlo simulations that resulted in

the discovery of a new universality class and its

exponents.

Managed large data sets,

simultaneous runs of about 40 processors and performed extensive

analysis on their output.

Computed

hyperpolarizability and other such properties in confined atoms with

one, two, and many electrons as part of my junior thesis.

Published

the findings in the Phys. Rev. Lett.; the results challenge the

commonly believed theoretical predictions, at the same time are

consistent with experimental results found in some

superconductor-insulator as well as superfluid-normal fluid transitions.

Community Service Experience

Duke

Outreach Program Instructor, Taught Science and Astronomy for one year

to 30-40 fourth graders at Durham public school at Forest View.Mood-Indigo'98 Chief

Coordinator for the fine-arts events in one of India's biggest student

cultural festival held in IITB.

Regularly participate and

volunteer for Yoga and meditation camps; help keep a balanced attitude

and cooperative team spirit.

AID-Duke

Volunteer, a university student body involved in social welfare.

Long time volunteer involved in organizing fund-raising events,

projects review and management with annual budget of about

$40,000. Worked in different capacities including as treasurer

and administrator.
