    Understanding the physical state of the interstellar medium of protogalaxy at high red- shift plays a key role in our understanding of galaxy formation. Although it is not possible to directly observe the highly redshifted ...
  • Lohani, Anjali (ARIES, Nainital, 2015)
    The aim of this project was to gain a first hand knowledge of instruments such as CCD and telescope being used in current astronomy. In this project, I have learnt the basic ...
  • Bhatt, Sunita (ARIES, 2015)
    In this project, our main aim is to study the structure of Milky Way galaxy with the help of open clusters. We selected 1850 open star clusters from the catalogue of Dias et al. (2002). The fundamental parameters like ...
  • Anisha (ARIES, 2015)
    The 3.6m optical telescope is being installed at Devasthal, Nainital, and it will provide seeing limited observational capabilities at visible and near infrared bands. The image quality of any optical telescope is very ...
  • Devanandan, Anusree P. (ARIES, 2015)
    The 3.6m optical telescope, currently the largest optical telescope in India is being built at Devasthal with an aim to develop an observational facility with spectral and seeing limited imaging capabilities at visible ...
  • Aggrawal, Vishi (ARIES, 2015)
    AGNs are the tiny, central, compact regions present in certain galaxies and produce tremendous luminosity. The emissions from AGN emerge over an exceptionally wide range of frequencies showing very distinctive spectra. ...
  • Rathour, R. S. (ARIES, 2015)
    The aim of this study is to understand the mechanism of prompt emission and afterglow properties of Short Gamma-ray bursts and their implications in astrophysical context.
