Effect of isospin dependent cross-section on nuclear stopping
Nuclear stopping in heavy ion collisions (HIC) has been studied by means of rapidity distribution and asymmetry of nucleon momentum distribution. It is an important quantity in determining the outcome of a reaction. Fen Fu {\it et al.,} \cite{2} calculate both the radial flow and the degree of nuclear stopping in Pb + Pb and Ni + Ni at 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 GeV/neucleon. They found that the expansion velocity as well as the degree of nuclear stopping are higher in the heavier system at all energies.

Effect of the symmetry energy on nuclear stopping and its relation to the production of light charged fragments
We present a complete systematics (excitation function, impact parameter, system size, isospin asymmetry, and equations of state dependences) of global stopping and fragment production for heavy-ion reactions in the energy range between 50 and 1000 MeV/nucleon in the presence of symmetry energy and an isospin-dependent cross section. It is observed that the degree of stopping depends weakly on the symmetry energy and strongly on the isospin-dependent cross section. However, the symmetry energy and isospin-dependent cross section has an effect of the order of more than 10% on the emission of light charged particles (LCP's). It means that nuclear stopping and LCP's can be used as a tool to get the information of an isospin-dependent cross section. Interestingly, the LCP's emission in the presence of symmetry energy is found to be highly correlated with the global stopping.

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.

Production of light and intermediate mass fragments using various clusterization algorithms
For the present analysis we simulate the reaction 129Xe 54+197Au79 at E=50 MeV/nucleon respectively[3]. This reaction is simulated at different impact parameters using hard equation of state. The stored phase space is then analyzed by using MST, MSTP and MSTB algorithms. MSTB and MSTP identifies the free nucleons as early as possible. In the two cases, a check in the form of binding energy and momentum cut helps to identify the fragments quite early. The normal MST takes quite a long time to identify the stable fragments which are residual of excited fragments.

Rapidity distribution dependence of the transition energy in heavy-ion collisions
For the present analysis, simulations are carried out for thousand of events for the reaction of 79Au197 + 79Au197 at semi-central geometry using a hard equation of state. The whole of the analysis is performed for light charged particles (LCP's). The transition from in-plane to out-of-plane is observed only when the mid-rapidity region is included in the rapidity bin otherwise no transition is observed. The transition energy is found to be strongly dependent on the size of the rapidity bin. The transition energy is parameterized with a straight line interpolation.

Influence of charge asymmetry and isospin dependent cross-section on nuclear stopping
Using the isospin dependent quantum molecular dynamics model, we study the effect of charge asymmetry and isospin dependent cross-section on nuclear stopping and multiplicity of free nucleons and LMF’s. Simulations were carried out for the reactions 124 Xm + 124 Xm, where m varies from 47 to 59 and for 40 Yn+ 40 Yn, where n varies from 14 to 23. Our study shows that nuclear stopping as well as the production of LMF’s depend strongly on the isospin of the cross-section.

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.

LAGRANGIAN AND HAMILTONIAN FORMULATIONS OF HIGHER ORDER CHERN–SIMONS THEORIES
We consider models involving the higher (third) derivative extension of the Abelian Chern–Simons (CS) topological term in D = 2 + 1 dimensions. The polarization vectors in these models reveal an identical structure with the corresponding expressions for usual models which contain, at most, quadratic structures. We also investigate the Hamiltonian structure of these models and show how Wigner's little group acts as a gauge generator.

Some FRW models of accelerating universe with dark energy
The paper deals with a spatially homogeneous and isotropic FRW space-time filled with perfect fluid and dark energy components. The two sources are assumed to interact minimally, and therefore their energy momentum tensors are conserved separately. A special law of variation for the Hubble parameter proposed by Berman (Nuovo Cimento B 74:182, 1983) has been utilized to solve the field equations. The Berman’s law yields two explicit forms of the scale factor governing the FRW space-time and constant values of deceleration parameter. The role of dark energy with variable equation of state parameter has been studied in detail in the evolution of FRW universe. It has been found that dark energy dominates the universe at the present epoch, which is consistent with the observations. The physical behavior of the universe has been discussed in detail.

Neutrino Parameter Space for a Vanishing ee Element in the Neutrino Mass Matrix
The consequences of a texture zero at the ee entry of neutrino mass matrix in the flavor basis, which also implies a vanishing effective Majorana mass for neutrinoless double beta decay, have been studied for Majorana neutrinos. The neutrino parameter space under this condition has been constrained in the light of all available neutrino data including the CHOOZ bound on .

Measurement of the damping of the nuclear shell effect in the doubly magic 208Pb region.
The damping of the nuclear shell effect with excitation energy has been measured through an analysis of the neutron spectra following the triton transfer in the (7)Li induced reaction on (205)Tl. The measured neutron spectra demonstrate the expected large shell correction energy for the nuclei in the vicinity of doubly magic (208)Pb and a small value around (184)W. A quantitative extraction of the allowed values of the damping parameter γ, along with those for the asymptotic nuclear level density parameter ã, has been made for the first time.
