I am a graduate student in the Department of Physics at Ohio State University (OSU). I am also affiliated to the Center for Cosmology and AstroParticle Physics (CCAPP) at OSU. I am being supervised by Prof. Todd A. Thompson. I am interested in theoretical astrophysics. I primarily work on early evolution of neutron stars after their formation in core-collapse supernovae. My focus is on the neutrino-driven wind phase which lasts for about 10 to 100 seconds after the supernova explosion. Using the equations of ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), we model the the early evolution of highly magnetized neutron stars (magnetars) with spin periods ranging from just a few milliseconds to a few hundred milliseconds.

Research Interests: Massive star supernovae, neutron star formation and spindown, magnetars, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), heavy element nucleosynthesis, numerical magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD).

I have received my Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) degree in Engineering Physics with a second major in Electrical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad along with a Silver medal in August 2019. I have received my Master of Science (M.S.) degree from OSU in May 2021. I have worked as a research intern at the National Centre for Radio Astrophysics and the Indian Institute of Astrophysics.
