Systematic Study on System Size Dependence of Global Stopping: Role of Momentum-Dependent Interactions and Symmetry Energy
Using the isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamical (IQMD) model, we systematically study the role of momentum dependent interactions in global stopping and analyze the effect of symmetry energy in the presence of momentum dependent interactions. For this, we simulate the reactions by varying the total mass of the system from 80 to 394 at different beam energies from 30 to 1000 MeV/nucleon over central and semi-central geometries. The study is carried in the presence of momentum dependent interactions and symmetry energy by taking into account hard equation of state. The nuclear stopping is found to be sensitive towards the momentum dependent interactions and symmetry energy at low incident energies. The momentum dependent interactions are found to weaken the finite size effects in nuclear stopping.

Experimental balance energies and isospin-dependent nucleon-nucleon cross-sections
The effect of different isospin-dependent cross-sections on directed flow is studied for a variety of systems (for which experimental balance energies are available) using an isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamic (IQMD) model. We show that balance energies are sensitive toward isospin-dependent cross sections for light systems, while nearly no effect exists for heavier nuclei. A reduced cross-section σ = 0.9σ NN with stiff equation of state is able to explain experimental balance energies in most of systems. A power law behavior is also given for the mass dependence of balance energy, which also follows the N/Z dependence.

Medium mass fragments production due to momentum dependent interactions
The role of system size and momentum dependent effects are analyzed in multifragmenation by simulating symmetric reactions of Ca+Ca, Ni+Ni, Nb+Nb, Xe+Xe, Er+Er, Au+Au, and U+U at incident energies between 50 MeV/nucleon and 1000 MeV/nucleon and over full impact parameter zones. Our detailed study reveals that there exist a system size dependence when reaction is simulated with momentum dependent interactions. This dependence exhibits a mass power law behavior.

Role of Momentum Dependent Interactions in Nuclear Stopping
In the present analysis, thousand of events were simulated for the neutron rich reaction of 54Xe131 + 54Xe131, at different impact parameters using hard (HMD) and soft (SMD) momentum dependent equation of state. one can clearly see more stopping in the presence of HMD. Production of LCP's and free particles follows the same trend as stopping parameter R. This simply implies that the fragment production can act as a global indicator for the nuclear stopping.

Study of gold induced heavy ion collisions using isospin dependent QMD model
We have studied the fragment production mechanism in the set of four reactions 197Au79+12C6, 197Au79+26Al13, 197Au79+63Cu29 and 197Au79+208Pb82. The reactions are simulated at an energy 600 MeV/nucleon and collision geometry is varied from central to peripheral (= b/bmax = 0 to 1). A theoretical investigation has been carried out on the study of mass dependence of intermediate mass fragments (5\leqA\leqAtot/6) and other fragments. It is observed that multiplicity shows a good agreement for low Zbound, but it fails for high Zbound. This failure is due the method of analysis MST which we had used in our analysis, because MST method gives one heavy cluster at the time of high density. The discrepancy between theory and experiments can be removed by using reduced isospin dependent NN cross section and sophisticated clustrization algorithm SACA.

Sensitivity of elliptical flow in intermediate energy heavy-ion collisions
The detailed analysis of excitation function of elliptical flow by taking into account the nature of equation of state, nucleon-nucleon cross sections as well as momentum dependent interactions is performed within Quantum Molecular Dynamics (QMD)model. All the observables are found to sensitive towards the elliptical flow. The transition energy is found to be decrease with increase in the size of the fragment in the presence of static equation of state as well as with large cross sections, while, trend gets opposite when momentum dependent interactions are included. At last, the experimental data is verified with static hard equation of state in the presence of large cross sections.

Influence of momentum dependent interactions on nuclear stopping in symmetric heavy-ion collisions
The role of momentum dependent interactions is studied in nuclear stopping at intermediate energy using an isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics model. Present calculations are performed at incident energy between 50 and 1000 MeV/nucleon. Our findings show that nuclear stopping is sensitive towards the impact parameter, incident energies as well as towards the mass of the colliding system. Further, the degree of stopping is suppressed by the inclusion of momentum dependent interactions, whereas the particle production is not affected by the MDI.

Pb-Radioactivity in superheavy elements
A study on exotic natural radioactivity of emitting nuclei heavier than α-particle, known as cluster radioactivity. Theoretically, it was predicted in 1980 by Săndulescu, Poenaru and Greiner [1]. Later it was confirmed experimentally by Rose and Jones in 1984 [2] via the 14 C decay from 223 Ra nucleus. Since then many other 14 C-decays from other radioactive nuclei ( 221 Fr, 221,222,224,226 Ra, 223,225 Ac) and some other neutron rich clusters, such as 20 O, 23 F, 22,24-

Effect of density dependent symmetry energy on fragmentation
The effect of the density dependence of symmetry energy on fragmentation is studied using isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics model(IQMD) Model. We have used the reduced isospin-dependent cross-section with soft equation of state to explain the experimental findings for the system 79Au197 + 79Au197 for the full colliding geometry. In addition to that we have tried to study the collective response of the momentum dependent interactions(MDI) and symmetry energy towards the multifragmentation.

Bianchi-I Space-time with Variable Gravitational and Cosmological “Constants”
We consider Einstein’s field equations with variable gravitational and cosmological “constants” for a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianchi-I space-time. A law of variation for the Hubble parameter, which is related to the average scale factor and yields a constant value of the deceleration parameter, is assumed to solve the field equations. The gravitational constant is allowed to follow a power-law form. We find that a time-increasing gravitational constant is suitable for describing the present evolution of universe. The solutions reveal the dynamics of a universe, which expands forever. The physical interpretation of the solutions is discussed in detail.
