Sayan Adhikari
Academic interests
I am interested in modeling and simulation of plasma processes in experimental, and natural plasma systems along with the development, and optimization of computer codes that can simulate such systems. I like working on any challenging topic on plasma modeling and simulations, including code development, and analytical theory.
I am presently working with the 4DSpace team at the University of Oslo to simulate Langmuir probe behavior in the space plasma environment.
