Practical implementations of QKD protocols involve devices which are not perfect, and an eavesdropper may exploit this to gain information leading to attacks. Here we have considered the effects of coupling mismatch between ...

We present a fine-grained approach to identify clusters and perform percolation analysis in a two-dimensional (2D) lattice system. In our approach, we develop an algorithm based on the linked-list data structure whereby ...

We present an analysis of the dense gas structures in the immediate surroundings of the massive young stellar object (MYSO) W42-MME, using the high-resolution (0".31 x 0".25) Atacama Large Millimetre/submillimetre Array ...

Results from experiments like LSND and MiniBooNE hint towards the possible presence of an extra eV scale sterile neutrino. The addition of such a neutrino will significantly impact the standard three flavor neutrino ...

We investigate a local SU(3)F flavour symmetry for its viability in generating the masses for the quarks and charged leptons of the first two families through radiative corrections. Only the third-generation fermions get ...

This study estimated the soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in contrasting hydro-geomorphic settings, particularly estuarine (4 sites) and marine (3 sites) environmental settings, across South Andaman Island, Andaman and ...

The first ionization potential (FIP) bias, whereby elemental abundances for low-FIP elements in different coronal structures vary from their photospheric values and may also vary with time, has been widely studied. In order ...

Atmospheric tides and associated dynamics during two major boreal sudden stratospheric warmings (SSWs) have been investigated. The evolutionary Lomb Scargle and wavelet spectral analysis of specular meteor radar (SMR)-derived ...

We explore the pair production of third-generation scalar leptoquark at the Large Hadron Collider to next-to-leading order accuracy in QCD, matched to parton shower for a precise probing of the stemming model. We propose ...

Sunspots host various oscillations and wave phenomena like umbral flashes, umbral oscillations, running penumbral waves, and coronal waves. All fan loops rooted in sunspot umbra constantly show a 3-min period propagating ...
