Research involvement of Subir Das and his group has been in the Statistical Mechanics of Phase Transitions and areas related to that. He is interested in investigation of traditional condensed matter as well as granular and (biologically) active matter systems, in connection with critical phenomena, nucleation, wetting, growth, ageing, disease spread, etc. He uses Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations, field theoretic continuum dynamical models, and concepts of scaling and renormalization group theories. Following are the specific topics he has been actively working on:
-
Static and Dynamic Critical Phenomena
-
Kinetics of Phase Transitions
-
Mpemba Effect
-
Nucleation and Growth in Varying Geometrical Conditions
-
Ageing in Out-of-Equilibrium Systems
-
Spread of Communicable Diseases
