The Department of
Physical Sciences at Bose Institute has been carrying out high quality research
in advanced areas of Physics for more than a century. Drawing inspiration from
the founder - Acharya J. C. Bose, the research activities in the department presently
cover diverse areas in Experimental and Theoretical Physics, Environmental Sciences
as well as areas at the interface of Biological and Chemical Sciences.
The research areas persued
are Quantum Information, Statistical Physics, Biophysics, Complex Systems,
Condensed Matter Physics, Materials Science, Cosmic Rays, Nuclear Astrophysics,
High Energy Physics, String Theory and Environmental Sciences. We have active
international collaborations with ALICE at LHC, CERN and the ISOLDE radioactive
ion beam facility at CERN. We are the nodal centre in India to facilitate
Indian activities at the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) at
GSI, Germany.
