    RAMANUJAN FELLOWS DIBYENDU NANDI Assistant Professor, Physics Indian Institute of Science Education and Research, Kolkata Mohanpur -741252, West Bengal [email protected] Dibyendu Nandi obtained his B.Sc. degree (1995) from St. Xavier's College, Calcutta University and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees (2002) in Physics from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore. He did postdoctoral work at Montana State University and subsequently held positions of Research Scientist and Assistant Professor there. Dibyendu returned to India in 2008 and joined IISER Kolkata. He continues to hold Visiting positions at Montana State University and Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. RESEARCH DESCRIPTION Dibyendu Nandi's research is directed towards understanding the origin of the Sun's magnetic activity and its impact on our space environment, climate and modern-day technologies. The activity of the Sun is governed by its variable magnetism which is produced by a magnetohydrodynamic dynamo mechanism in the solar interior. Solar magnetic fields spawn flares and coronal mass ejections which are the largest explosions in the solar system. These solar storms impact satellite operations, telecommunications, air-traffic over polar routes, electric grids and oil pipelines in high-latitude countries. The long-term variation of solar magnetic fields also modulates the Sun's energy output and is therefore relevant for the the climate system. Dibyendu's research has contributed to the understanding of how plasma flows inside the Sun influence magnetic field generation. In particular, using computational models, he has made important contributions to understanding the role of a large-scale flow of plasma known as meridional circulation in the spatio-temporal evolution of sunspots - strongly magnetized structures in the Sun which were first systematically observed by Galileo Galilei.

  • My Life and My Journey Through Solar Physics
    1 My Life and My Journey through Solar Physics Arnab Rai Choudhuri [On 18 February 2018 – one day before the conference International Astronomical Union Symposium 340: Long-Term Datasets for the Understanding of Solar and Stellar Magnetic Cycles (19 – 24 February 2018) – a one-day workshop on Solar-Stellar Magnetism: Past, Present and Future was organized at the same venue (B.M. Birla Auditorium, Jaipur, India). According to the official website of this workshop: This one day workshop is being organized in India on the occasion of Arnab Rai Choudhuri's 60th year to discuss outstanding challenges and future prospects in our understanding of the origin of solar-stellar magnetism – a topic in which Choudhuri has made significant contributions. The scientific sessions will be structured around invited discourses and a panel discussion. The workshop will precede (by one day) the International Astronomical Union Symposium 340 (Long-Term Datasets for the Understanding of Solar and Stellar Magnetic Cycles) and will be held in the same venue. The Organizing Committee consisted of Dibyendu Nandi, IISER Kolkata (SOC Chair); Dipankar Banerjee, IIA; Ramit Bhattacharyya, PRL; Piyali Chatterjee, IIA; Prateek Sharma, IISc; Prasad Subramanian, IISER Pune; Durgesh Tripathi, IUCAA. I was asked to give a 45-minute talk on My Life and My Journey through Solar Physics. Since I have never given such a talk and I was somewhat nervous about it, I wrote down the talk while preparing it – something which I normally would not do for an astrophysics talk. What follows is a polished version of the write-up.] 2 The programme of the workshop.
