Project Information

Seminar – Large Scale Structure of the Universe ( Prof Urjit Yajnik ) The Seminar involves study of the Large scale structure of the Universe. It involves preliminary study of General Relativity and its application to Cosmology in the form of the Friedmann Robertson Walker Metric. It involves curve fitting from recently obtained data from the Supernova Cosmology Project and testing of stringy matter as a part of the Universe.

Star Tracker -TIFR ( Prof Mayank Vahia) – Part of a six member team which is working on the design of a star tracker used to guide a telescope which is supposed to be flying 40 km above the surface of the Earth and supposed to collect data from there. Involves star pattern matching software to be written and the automation.

Course Projects:

Serial data transfer : Involved making a transmitter capable of sending data serially and a corresponding receiver at the other end to synchronously latch the incoming serial data parallely. The design was tested and worked even at frequencies of 1 Mhz.

Programming projects : Karnaugh Map minimisation algorithm implementation, Conversion of a Canonical Sum of Products form to a Canonical Product of Sums form, implementation of State minimisation by K equivalence algorithm, design of hardware circuits with the given flipflops.

Simulations:Simulation of the Kirkwood gap in the Asteroid Belt due to the presence of Jupiter. It involved demonstration of the phenomenon of resonance in gravitational systems.

Operating Systems worked on :

Unix, Solaris, Windows.

Programming Languages :

C++, Fortran 90


Academic Achievements:

1. Stood 9th in Maharashtra- Goa region in the Regional Mathematical Olympiad 1998. Was one among 200 people throughout the country selected to give the Indian National Mathematical Olympiad

2. Cleared the National Standard Examination in Physics, 1999 and was among top 200 who were eligible to give the Indian National Physics Olympiad.

3. Was among top 10 percent at the Pune Centre in the National Standard Examination in Chemistry.

4. Awarded the National Talent Search Examination Scholarship by NCERT Delhi in 1998. Top 750 students in the country are selected for the scholarship the examination includes a State level elimination followed by a National level written test and an Interview.

5. Awarded the Maharashtra Talent Search Examination Scholarship by the State Government, 1996 and 1997. Stood eighth in the state in 1996 MTSE.
