AMAN RAJ Research Student :- Date of Birth: 05/19/2004 :- Gender: Male : Quarter number-3053, Sector-12/A, Bokaro Steel City, Marital Status: Single Jharkhand, India Nationality: Indian I am a curious and ambitious research student at IISER Pune, deeply fascinated by the intricate world of nuclear physics. My interests revolve around exploring and understanding Charge Parity (CP) and its violation (CP violation) thereby curious in knowing the asymmetric between matter and anti-matter in Beyond Standard Model(BSM) Physics. Additionally, I am also fascinated by various nuclear models of Particle Physics such as the Shell Model, Liquid Drop Model, and Fermi Gas Model, which provide profound insights into the structure and behaviour of atomic nuclei thereby curious in knowing more about various detector. With a strong foundation in advanced linear algebra, I bring a mathematical edge to my studies, enabling me to approach complex physical problems with precision and analytical rigor. From analysing nuclear particles and their interactions to studying particle scattering through Feynman diagrams, I am captivated by the elegance and complexity of these phenomena. I am eager to deepen my understanding of nuclear physics while developing skills that can contribute to advancements in areas like nuclear detectors, ion transport systems, and material science. In addition to my academic pursuits, I am an enthusiastic educator with over three years of experience. Teaching has allowed me to translate complex scientific and mathematical ideas into relatable concepts, fostering critical thinking and curiosity among students. My teaching philosophy emphasizes active engagement, visual learning tools like animations, and nurturing a problem-solving mindset. I am excited to embark on a journey of continuous learning and discovery, aiming to bridge the gap between academia and industry in the future. When I am not immersed in science, I enjoy experimenting with recipes, watching movies, listening to music, and exploring the stories of iconic personalities from cinema. I thrive on bridging the gap between theoretical understanding and practical application, whether through teaching, research, or collaborative learning. My long-term goal is to pursue cutting-edge research in nuclear physics while inspiring young minds as an educator. WORK EXPERIENCE May 2024 July 2024 Summer Research Project Intern: Completed the summer project on the topic “Hot electron relaxation in metals” from 25th May to 22th July 2024 under Prof. Navinder Singh at Physical Research Laboratory (PRL) a constituent under Department of Space, Government of India situated at Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. Involved in understanding of electron and lattice phonons with the help of Fermi distribution function. PROJECTS December 2024 Gas Dynamics: Completed Project on “Gas Dynamics”, a topic under the Aeronautics discipline. In this project, I learn different concepts such as Fanno flow, Rayleigh flow, etc. Additionally, I learn about the three main shock relation: Normal Shock, Oblique Shock, Conical Shock and their practical implication. I also learn how to use the CAC (COMPRESSIBLE AERODYNAMICS CALCULATOR) for doing all the calculation. May 2025 Computational Fluid Dynamics: I did the Project on Computational Fluid Dynamics where I use Python to simulate the 2D lid driven cavity problem under different Reynolds numbers. I have use differ Python modules such as pandas, Clawpack, SymPy, pygalmesh, etc. This project more of a programming oriented rather than the physics behind. I have learned many python tools and technique in this project.
