About

I am a postdoctoral researcher at IOP Bhubaneswar. In the past three years, I have been a postdoctoral researcher in the IceCube group at DESY Zeuthen, Germany. The field of my research is High Energy Physics and Particle Astrophysics, which deals with particles having energy in the range of GeV and above. I am currently working on neutrino oscillations using atmospheric neutrino experiments such as IceCube and Iron-Calorimeter (ICAL) at the proposed India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO). In the past, I was a research scholar at INO, where I worked on physics simulation studies of neutrino oscillations using atmospheric neutrinos. I worked on exploring the physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model of particle physics using atmospheric neutrinos. I also worked on using atmospheric neutrinos as a tool to probe the internal structure of Earth, which is also called neutrino oscillation tomography of Earth. In the experimental part, I have also worked on detector response for Resistive Plate Chambers.
