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.

Magnetically induced electronic ferroelectricity in half-doped manganites.
Using a joint approach of density functional theory and model calculations, we demonstrate that a prototypical charge ordered half-doped manganite La1/2Ca1/2MnO3 is multiferroic. The combination of a peculiar charge-orbital ordering and a tendency to form spin dimers breaks the inversion symmetry and leads to a ferroelectric ground state with a polarization up to several microC/cm2. The presence of improper ferroelectricity does not depend on the hotly debated structural details of this material: in the Zener-polaron structure we find a similar ferroelectric response with a large polarization of purely magnetic origin.

Role of Isospin Degree of freedom on the impact parameter dependence of balance energy
For this study we have simulated the 28Ni58+28Ni58 and 26Fe58+26Fe58 systems at incident energies ranging from 45 MeV/nucleon to 105 MeV/nucleon by using soft equation of state. The geometry of reactions chosen are = b/bmax = 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, and 0.7.The Px/A is becoming more positive for neutron - rich system 26Fi58 as compared to neutron-poor system 28Ni58. This point towards the higher value of balance energy for 26Fi58 system. Further study in this direction is ongoing.

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.

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.

Viscous fluid cosmology with a cosmological constant
Exact solutions of the field equations for a Bianchi type-I space-time, filled with a viscous fluid and cosmological constant, are obtained. We utilize the constancy of deceleration parameter to get singular and non-singular solutions. We investigate a number of solutions with constant and time-varying cosmological constant together with a linear relation between shear viscosity and expansion scalar. Due to dissipative processes, the mean anisotropy and shear of the model tend to zero at a faster rate.

Intermediate Mass Fragment Production In Symmetric Collisions
We present a complete systematic theoretical study of multifragmentation and its associated phenomena in heavy ion collisions. This study is performed within an Isospin dependent Quantum Molecular Dynamical Model (IQMD) and using Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) algorithm. Simulations are carried out to study the different parameters like time evolution of multiplicity, mass distribution, impact parameter dependence and IMF's production dependence of projectile & target mass. The rise and fall in multiplicity of IMF's is observed. Results are compared with experimental data of ALADIN and are found to be in close agreement.

Phase space analysis of fragmentation and the role of mass asymmetry
Based on the quantum molecular dynamics picture, we aim to understand heavy-ion collisions in terms of participant spectator matter leading to various fragments of different sizes. The study is performed for symmetric as well as asymmetric reactions at E = 200 MeV nucleon−1 for central collisions. Our results highlight the importance of a phase space analysis of the fragment distribution in symmetric and asymmetric collisions in terms of light mass fragments that are a component of participant matter and intermediate mass fragments, which come from the spectator region.

Bianchi type-II space-times with constant deceleration parameter in self creation cosmology
Abstract
The properties of locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi type-II perfect fluid space-times are analyzed in Barber’s second self-creation theory by using a special law of variation for Hubble’s parameter that yields a constant value of deceleration parameter. By assuming the equation of state p=γρ, many new solutions are obtained for different era—Zel’dovich, radiation, vacuum and vacuum energy dominated. The solutions with power-law and exponential expansion are discussed. A detailed study of geometrical and physical parameters is carried out. The nature of singularity is also clarified in each case.
