        Integrated Geophysical methods to map geological structures and characterize groundwater potential

        Groundwater, being a crucial resource for domestic use due to its minimal treatment requirements, necessitates comprehensive characterization for sustainable management. This study investigates the hydrogeological structures and aquifer potential of the Meki to Alemtena area, integrating vertical electrical sounding (VES) and magnetic methods for a multidisciplinary approach to groundwater delineation. VES interpretations identified five to seven lithological layers with aquifer thicknesses ranging from 40 to 70 meters, primarily comprising fractured and weathered ignimbrite, sand, and alluvial deposits. Magnetic analysis revealed lithological trends predominantly oriented northeast-southwest (NE-SW) along the northern and southern margins and deep-seated structures trending east-west (E-W), which significantly influence groundwater flow directions. Key anomalies detected through 3D Euler deconvolution and 2D magnetic modeling correspond to deep geological features that impact groundwater movement. The integrated geophysical approach enabled precise delineation of aquifer boundaries, estimation of thickness, and evaluation of storage capacity, providing critical insights into groundwater flow dynamics. These findings contribute to improved groundwater resource management, facilitating sustainable utilization and conservation strategies.

        A brief view of innermost stable circular orbits

        The innermost stable circular orbit
        (ISCO) is a concept in general relativity that defines the closest possible circular orbit around a massive, compact object (like a black hole or a star) where a test particle can remain in a stable orbit.
        Closer than the ISCO, no stable orbits exist; a particle closer than the ISCO will spiral down into the black hole.

        This presentation will briefly introduce ISCO, and will discuss different ISCOs such as the ones for Schwarzschild and Rissner-Nordstrom black holes. Then ending with a quick view of my research on ISCO of global monopole RN-black holes in a constant magnetic field.

        Calculation of drag force on a quark using AdS/CFT

        I will present a paper that shows an interesting calculation of the drag force on a quark as it passes through QGP using string theory.

        Comparing Machine Learning Methods to Reduce Double-Charm Backgrounds for Measurement of ℛ(𝐷_𝑠^(∗−) ) in LHCb

        Accurate machine learning models are a requirement in modern experimental particle physics. For many analyses, it is important to be able to accurately separate certain signals and backgrounds from each other. In this study, I perform an analysis using Boosted Decision Trees, Neural Networks, and a combination on simulated LHCb data and compare their effectiveness. This work is done in the context of Dr. S. Klaver’s research into lepton flavour universality in $B^0_s$ decays.

        Process Kinematics at Various Collision Energies

        I briefly present my truth-level study on the kinematic distributions of two SM processes - Drell-Yan and top-antitop pair production - at varying proton-proton collision energies. The processes were studied at COM energies of 2, 13, 33, 66, and 100 TeV. This was my bachelor's thesis.

        Baikal-GVD Neutrino telescope

        The Baikal Gigaton Volume Detector (Baikal-GVD) is a neutrino telescope deployed in the deep waters of Lake Baikal, designed to detect high-energy astrophysical neutrinos. This presentation will start with the field of neutrino astronomy. The principles behind astrophysical neutrino detection, including Cherenkov radiation will be mentioned. The unique environmental and geographical advantages of Lake Baikal as a site for neutrino research will be examined. An overview of the Baikal-GVD detector will be provided, covering its design and operational principles. Finally, the role of Baikal-GVD in the emerging field of multimessenger astronomy will be discussed in the end, since my bachelor's thesis was dedicated to the visualisation of the multimessenger data or Baikal-GVD.

        BCS Theory- From material science to particle physics.

        I would like to talk about superconductors in general and then delve into the best explanation of the phenomena so far(for conventional superconductors at least): The BCS theory.
        I will explain the theory from a material science point of view and attempt to link it, as much as I can, to what we've learned so far in particle physics.
