  • Inverse Cascade in Hydrodynamic Turbulence and its Role in Solar Granulation 
    Krishan, V (International Astronomical Union, 1990)
    Self-organization i.e the formation of large ordered structures in a turbulent medium is a consequence of inverse cascade where energy preferentially transfers towards large spatial scales. It is envisaged that this may ...
  • Inverse Modelling for parameter estimation and experiment design 
    Gaur, V. K (Indian academy of Sciences, 1999-02)
    Inverse modelling forced itself on the attention of scientists in the 1960s with the advent of satellites and other revelatory technologies, despite their putative ill-posedness, when it became clear that estimation of ...

    Subramanian, S; Ramya, S; Das, M; George, K; Sivarani, T; Prabhu, T. P (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016-01)
    We present an analysis of the optical nuclear spectra from the active galactic nuclei (AGN) in a sample of low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies. Using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), we derived the virial ...
  • Investigating Extra-solar Planetary System Qatar-1 through Transit Observations 
    Thakur, P; Mannaday, V. K; Jiang, I; Sahu, D. K; Chand, S (Societe Royale des Sciences de Liege, 2018-04)
    We report the results of the transit timing variation (TTV) analysis of the extra-solar planet Qatar1b using thirty eight light curves. Our analysis combines thirty five previously available transit light curves with three ...
  • Investigating kinematics and dynamics of three open clusters towards Galactic anticentre 
    Rangwal, Geeta; Yadav, R. K. S; Bisht, D; Durgapal, Alok; Sariya, Devesh P (Oxford University Press on behalf of Royal Astronomical Society, 2023-08)
    We present the intracluster kinematics and dynamics of three open clusters: NGC 1193, NGC 2355, and King 12 by incorporating kinematical and photometric data from Gaia DR3, as well as a ground-based telescope. After ...
  • Investigating the AGN activity and black hole masses in low surface brightness galaxies 
    Subramanian, S; Ramya, S; Das, M; George, K; Sivarani, T; Prabhu, T. P (International Astronomical Union, 2016-02)
    We present an analysis of the optical nuclear spectra from the active galactic nuclei (AGN) in a sample of giant low surface brightness (GLSB) galaxies. GLSB galaxies are extreme late type spirals that are large, isolated ...
  • Investigating the in-flight performance of the UVIT payload on AstroSat 
    Rahna, P. T; Murthy, J; Safonova, M; Sutaria, F. K; Gudennavar, S. B; Bubbly, S. G (Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017-11)
    We have studied the performance of the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope payload on AstroSat and derived a calibration of the far-ultraviolet (FUV) and near-ultraviolet (NUV) instruments on board. We find that the sensitivity ...

  • Investigating Width Distribution of Slow and Fast CMEs in Solar Cycles 23 and 24 
    Pant, V; Majumdar, S; Patel, R; Chauhan, A; Banerjee, D; Gopalswamy, N (Frontiers, 2021-05)
    Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are highly dynamic events originating in the solar atmosphere, that show a wide range of kinematic properties and are the major drivers of the space weather. The angular width of the CMEs ...

  • An investigation of polarization produced by circumstellar dust envelopes 
    Raveendran, A. V (European Southern Observatory, 1991-03)
    Numerical computations show that: (1) the polarimetric behavior of carbon stars is inconsistent with the scattering by graphite grains, (2) the radial pulsation of the star does not significantly change the net polarization ...
