Research Objectives

My ultimate overarching goal is to understand the alignment of the dust grains and the polarization characteristics produced by the aligned grains across different physical scales within our Milky Way and extragalaxies. This understanding of dust polarization has direct implications for a broad range of studies, including foreground characterization in polarization for analysis of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). The secondary objective focuses on understanding the effect of the rotational motion of dust grains in the astrochemical process on their surface, and the integration of this effect to dust polarization. In addition, I am actively involved in several inquiries that investigate the physics of the interstellar medium and the processes associated with the formation of stars using different methods of observation. One of my investigations focuses on analyzing the impact of the magnetic field on the evolution of molecular clouds and the star‑formation activities within them.
