    Raju, K. P (IOP Publishing, 2020-08-20)
    Supergranulation is the horizontal velocity pattern on the solar surface with a typical size of 30,000 km and a lifetime of 24 hr. The network structure seen in chromospheric lines, such as Ca ii K 3934 Å, is the manifestation ...
  • Mid-infrared variability of γ-ray emitting blazars

  • Effects of dark matter on the upper bound mass of neutron stars 
    Kumar, S. S; Kenath, A; Sivaram, C (Elsevier B.V, 2020-05)
    Observations have indicated that we do not see neutron stars (NS) of mass near the theoretical upper limit as predicted. Here we invoke the role of dark matter (DM) particles in star formation, and their role in lowering ...
