Dr. Atul Singh Bharadwaj

Dr Atul Singh Bharadwaj completed his BSc and MSc Degree from the University of Allahabad in 2007 and 2009 respectively. In 2009, he joined Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi for the PhD degree. The title of his PhD thesis is "Theory of Freezing Transition: Density Function Approach". He qualified CSIR-UGC (NET) exam in 2009.  In his PhD career, he has published 5 research paper in the well reputed international journals of American Physical Society (APS) and American Institute of Physics (AIP). He got UGC-University Research Fellowship, UGC-Research Fellowship in Sciences for Meritorious Students (RFSMS) and CSIR-Senior Research Fellowships (SRF) during his PhD Degree.

After getting his PhD degree in 2017, he moved from Banaras Hindu University to Tata Institute of Fundamental Research: Centre for Interdisciplinary Sciences, Hyderabad for Post-Doctoral Research. Where he got TIFR Institute Post-Doctoral Fellowship and DST-National Post-Doctoral Fellowship. In TIFR, He was busy to complete a project with Prof. Surajit Sengupta and Prof. Hartmut Lowen (Germany) entitled with "Density wave Theory for Amorphization and plastic deformation of crystals". In 2018, He moved from TIFR-Hyderabad to CMP degree College to join as an assistant professor in the department of Physics.

He is experienced in using classical Density Functional Theory, Integral Equation Theories, techniques of spherical harmonic expansion, and other tools/techniques which are most commonly used to study the phase diagrams, structure and properties of classical systems. He is proficient in programming languages ‘FORTRAN 77/90’ and ‘C++’ and also the fair understanding of MPI, Open MPI, GROMACS, LAMMPS and work on grid/server computing, cloud computing.

His current area of research interest is Classical Density functional theory, Integral equation theory, Theory for phase transitions, Structure and properties of (soft) condensed phases, Pair correlation functions in liquid and crystal, Monte-Carlo Simulation and molecular dynamics simulation to study the various type of freezing transition, structural transition, glassy transition and re-entrance phenomena in the phase diagram.
