BIOGRAPHY

I have completed Ph. D. Degree in 1990 from Gujarat University on “High-Resolution Spectroscopic Study of Comets”. The focus of the research was to study the interaction of solar wind with the cometary plasma using Fabry-Perot spectrometers. During the next two years, I worked as “Max-Planck Fellow” at Max-Planck Institute fur Aeronomie, Lindau, Germany, during which I used large telescopes at Calar Alto, Spain to study the circum Jovian plasma torus. Joining as a faculty member of Physical Research Laboratory, India in 1992, I became interested in Solar Physics. My main interest in solar physics is developing the instruments for solar observations. These instruments involve high resolution spectroscopy and polarimetry. I was awarded the Research Associateship of National Research Council for two times in 1998 and 2003. In 2001, National Astronomical Observatory of Japan awarded me the “Center of Excellence Fellowship”. I have about 78 refereed and non-refereed publications.

I am a member of several professional associations such as American Astronomical Society, American Geophysical Union, and American Association for Advancement of Sciences, Astronomical Society of India and International Astronomical Union.
