I have accumulated extensive experience through various research projects spanning several years. Notably, I worked as an Astrophysics Research Assistant at the Tata Institute for Fundamental Research (TIFR) from September 2020 to May 2022. During this period, I gained invaluable insights and honed my research skills. Additionally, I served as a Bio-statistical Research Assistant at the University of Guelph from May 2021 to January 2022, and later as an Undergraduate Quantum Research Assistant in the QuMaC Lab, TIFR, from June 2023 to March 2024.I have been involved in diverse sectors throughout my academic and research career. My work has primarily been in:
-
Undergraduate Quantum Research AssistantTata Institute Of Fundamental Research (Tifr) Jun 2023 - Mar 2024Mumbai, Maharashtra, India• Completed a research internship at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) in the Quantum Measurement and Control (QuMaC) laboratory.• Recognized as the youngest member of the research team.• Contributed to the development of India’s first 7 Qubit Quantum computer, focusing on programming and interface design between high-level and signal-level quantum languages.• Developed a translator program in Python to convert higher-level QASM code to machine level QUA code, facilitating accurate signal processing for Quantum computing operations.• Designed and implemented a comprehensive suite of pulse sequences for various quantum gates, enhancing the modulation and control of quantum bits.• Engineered (over 15k+ lines of code for) an automated software library for cavity and qubit spectroscopy, mixer calibration, and time-of-flight calibration processes, significantly improving experimental accuracy and operational efficiency. -
Astrophysics Reasearch AssistantTata Institute Of Fundamental Research (Tifr) Sep 2020 - May 2022Mumbai, Maharashtra, India• Completed a 2 year research Internship where i worked under Dr. Varsha Chitnis, one of India Leading Astrophysicists• Conducted an in-depth study of the X-Ray source, specifically analyzing data for the BL Lacertae object 1ES 2344 +514, utilizing data from NASA’s NuSTAR and Swift XRT detectors.• Examined the energy spectrum within distinct ranges: 0.3 keV to 7 keV from Swift XRT, and 3 keV to 30 keV from NuSTAR FPMA and FPMB.• extensively developed a codebase in python and used existing spectral analysis tools like HEASOFT and HEASARC and fitted the combined data with a power law model, incorporating line-of-sight absorption effects.• Extracted the intrinsic source spectrum and conducted a thorough comparison with existing literature and found consistency between the intrinsic source spectrum obtained from the study and previously reported findings in scientific literature.• Presented my findings in the form of a report and seminar at a weekly Seminar at the institute
