Advanced Radiation Detector and Instrumentation in Nuclear and Particle Physics

Rajendra Nath Patra is an Assistant Professor at the University of Jammu, Jammu, India. He obtained his PhD in 2019 from Variable Energy Cyclotron Centre, Kolkata of Homi Bhabha National Institute, Mumbai, working in the ALICE experiment at CERN. He received EMMI visiting scientist fellowship in 2018 for working on the ALICE Time Projection Chamber Upgrade project at GSI, Darmstadt, Germany. He did his Postdoctoral research in ALICE experiment at CERN, with the affiliation of Bogolyubov Institute for Theoretical Physics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kiev, Ukraine. At present, he is a member of Experimental High Energy Physics Group, Jammu University, participating in the ALICE collaboration. His research interests include developing gaseous and silicon detectors for experimental high energy physics experiments and physics of relativistic heavy ion collision.
