Our group at DAASE is working on resolving a few critical issues related to the galaxy formation and evolution process. Our primarily focus is concentrated on broadly two research areas. The first part focuses on the dark matter distribution in galaxies and tries to address the shortcomings of the Lambda-CDM model of cosmology. The second part focuses on gas and star formation and tries to understand how galaxies effectively use their gas reservoir to form stars and from where this gas comes.

Our group is also actively involved in cutting-edge instrumentation for new-generation radio telescopes. In our Digital Backend Group, we focus on developing state-of-the-art digital backends (e.g., receiver, beamformer, etc.) for radio telescopes using advanced computing platforms like FPGA and GPUS. The long-term ambition of this group is to support our own four-element interferometer (IIRI, IIT Indore Radio Interferometer) and develop indigenous technologies for next-generation instruments. Currently, we are working on developing a digital beam former for radio astronomy applications using FPGA.
