Biological dinitrogen (N2) fixation is meagerly explored in the Bay of Bengal (Bay). Stratified, warm, oligotrophic (but relatively high iron and phosphate) and oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) waters of the Bay might be a niche ...

Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference, bunching of two indistinguishable photons on a balanced beam-splitter, has emerged as a promising tool for quantum sensing. There is a need for wide spectral-bandwidth photon pairs (for ...

This work examines the accuracy of different many-body methods for the calculations of parity violating electric dipole (E1PV) amplitudes in atomic systems. In the last decade, many different groups claim to achieve its ...

Chiral halide perovskites are being extensively studied due to their promising spintronic and optoelectronic properties, where the organic chiral ligands introduce chirality into halide perovskites. Right-handed and ...

India's lander-rover mission Chandrayaan-3 is scheduled to be launched in mid-2023. We have simulated a realistic scenario and investigated the electric potential development over the Chandrayaan-3 landing site under the ...

The mid-latitude upper atmosphere is directly affected by the inner magnetosphere through the interactions at the closed geomagnetic field line boundary. Several space weather phenomena associated with magnetospheric-plasmaspheric ...

The time-scales of variability in active M dwarfs can be related to their various physical parameters. Thus, it is important to understand such variability to decipher the physics of these objects. In this study, we have ...

Measuring the quantum fluctuations of a laser source is the first task in performing continuous variable quantum key distribution protocols. The quantum fluctuations of the source are measured using balanced homodyne ...

Hydrodynamic interactions are important for diverse fluids, especially those with low Reynolds number such as microbial and particle-laden suspensions, and proteins diffusing in membranes. Unfortunately, while far-field ...

We demonstrate that the transition between the fine-structure splitting of the ground state of triply ionized zirconium (Zr iv) is suitable for a terahertz (THz) atomic clock. Its transition frequency is about 37.52 THz ...
