Year Name Achievement Remark
Sept 2025 Dr. Sushil Singh Chauhan(PI), Prof. Vipin Bhatnagar(Co-PI), Prof. Lokesh Kumar(Co-PI) Sanctioned GRID project of Rs. 1.36 Cr by Department of Science and Technology (DST), New Delhi. Under this project Dr. Sushil S. Chauhan (PI), Prof. Vipin Bhatnagar (Co-PI) and Prof. Lokesh Kumar (Co-PI) will be working to setup grid infrastructure at the Dept. of Physics. This include a Tier-3 computing facility for the simulation and analysis of CMS and ALICE experiment at CERN. This facility will also be used to store some of the data of both the experiment.
Sept. 2023 Dr. Sushil Singh Chauhan Level-2 Convener for Detector Physics Group; (DPG) for GEM Detectors at CMS experiment (CERN). The Detector Physics Group for GEM detectors is responsible for efficient performance evaluation and calibration of the Gaseous Electron Multiplier(GEM) detector at CMS experiment. Its main task is to obtain calibration constants, evaluate performance and manage physics outcomes of the GEM detector. The DPG convener achieves these goals by leading several sub-groups within DPG organization. Dr. Sushil Singh Chauhan will lead the DPG-GEM group for 2 years till Sept. 2025.
June 2022 Prof. Vipin Bhatnagar (PI), Dr. Sushil Singh Chauhan (Co-PI) Sanctioned a project of Rs. 6.19 Cr by Department of Science and Technology (DST), New Delhi. Under this project Prof. Vipin Bhatnagar and Dr. Sushil S. Chauhan will be working in the International Collaborations - COMPACT MUON SOLENOID (CMS) Experiment at European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), Geneva Switzerland. The CMS experiments is designed to discover Higgs Boson and other such new physics beyond Standard Model(BSM) of particle physics such as Dark Matter, Exotic Particles etc. The PU group under this project will also work on detector R&D and upgrade of CMS detector for HL-LHC.
Jan. 2022 Dr. Sushil Singh Chauhan Level-3 Convener for GEM Detectors Simulation Group at CMS experiment (CERN). The GEM Detectors are being used in CMS experiment and for their R&D a number of tools like GEANT4, GARFIELD and ANSYS are used. These tools are used to designed the detector and to evaluate their design performance. The GEM Simulation Group under the DPG-GEM is responsbile to perform all these studies. Dr. Sushil S. Chauhan will lead these group for 2 years till Sept. 2023
Feb. 2022 Dr. Lokesh Kumar Member of Talk Committee (STC) of STAR Collaboration The talk committee (STC) consists of 5 members from the STAR Collaboration which consists of more than 700 researchers. The committee with its experience and expertize selects the speakers from STAR Collaboration for presenting new STAR results on behalf of STAR Collaboration in various major and important conferences of high energy and heavy-ion collision experiments.
Jan. 2022 Dr. Lokesh Kumar Sanctioned a project of Rs. 5.78 Cr by Department of Science and Technology (DST), New Delhi. Under this project Dr. Lokesh will be working in the International Collaborations - Solenoidal Tracker At RHIC (STAR) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), USA and A Large Ion Collider Experiment (ALICE) at CERN (European Council for Nuclear Research), Switzerland. These experiments are devoted to the study of the state of matter called Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP).
Oct. 2021 Dr. Satya Prakash, Dr. M. M. Aggarwal, Dr. S. K. Tripathi, Dr. Lokesh Kumar Included in Stanford University’s list of “World’s Top 2% Scientists” based on career long data and/or single-year impact (2020) The analysis conducted using research publications up to 2020 end was published in PLOS Biology, a peer-reviewed scientific journal, in OCtober 2021. The data includes all scientists who are among the top 1,00,000 across all fields, according to the composite citation index.
Jan. 2021 Dr. Lokesh Kumar Expert member of working group of Mega Science Vision-2035 For (High Energy) Nuclear Physics section, Selected by the office of the Principal Scientific Advisor (PSA) to the Government of India (GOI).
Jan. 2021 Dr. Lokesh Kumar Deputy-spokesperson of the STAR-ALICE-India collaboration The STAR-ALICE-India collaboration consists of Faculties, Scientists, Scientific Officers, Engineers, Postdoctoral Fellows, and Research Scholars, from Indian institutions working in the area of Experimental High Energy/Nuclear Physics who participate in STAR experiment at BNL, USA and ALICE experiment at CERN, Switzerland.
2019 - 2022 Prof. Sandeep Sahijpal Member of the publication committee of the Journal, "Meteoritics and Planetary Science (MAPS)" One of the world's leading planetary science journals.
July 2014 - July 2016 Dr. Lokesh Kumar Convener of the STAR LFS working group The STAR is composed of 68 institutions from 14 countries, with a total of 743 collaborators. A variety of personnel participate in the collaboration, including students, university faculty and staff, national laboratory staff, and engineers.
2013-14 Dr. Rajesh Kumar Received Raman Fellowship Includes fully sponsored stay for one year to carry out research in United States of America.
