About my Research: My present work is based on the accretion flow dynamics around black holes in presence of Comptonization and Mass loss. For that purpose I have coupled both the radiative transfer and hydrodynamic codes. I also analyze the observational data of RXTE and NuSTAR satellites to study different physical mechanisms in accretion disk of galactic black hole candidates (GBHCs). My work focuses on the spectral and temporal properties of transient sources as well as the evolution of quasi periodic oscillations (QPOs) from the theoretical point of view.

About my research: My main research projects are related to the search and characterization of very low mass stars and brown dwarfs in the solar neighborhood. Using the observations from the VISTA-VVV survey and WISE mission I have characterized a sample of sources including spectral typing, radial velocities and parallax measurements. I am also interested in study of very low mass binary stars.

About my research: My main area of research is focused on the detection and characterization of Galactic halo substructures, relics of its hierarchical formation (as suggested by Lambda-Cold Dark Matter simulations). I am interested in the study of Galactic stellar clusters to unveil the overall structure of the Milky Way and its origin.

About my research: Massive stars live fast and powerful lives and die young with a bang, leaving lots of marks to their host galaxies. My research focuses on the observation of mass and energy lost during different evolutionary stages of massive stars. Of particular interest is the interactions of these exerted matter and energy in multiple stellar systems, in clusters and in galaxies, either with other stellar winds or with the interstellar matter. One result of the interactions of stellar winds of massive stars is dust formation as observed around some massive stars in our Galaxy and in other galaxies. The puzzle I am trying to unravel is how dust can form in the violent environs of stellar winds of massive stars.
