How to do astronomy and exoplanetary science research as a physics and computer science graduate in India? Professors in India don't reply to my emails. Not a single interview for an internship. Understandably, they must be very busy and my emails must not be captivating enough. How do I get to work on scientific projects? How do I start contributing to the scientific enterprise?

📣 A new internship opportunity with the Advanced Concepts Team! 📣 Topic: Constraining Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) Deadline: 30 November 2023 23:59 CET/CEST Link: https://lnkd.in/eWBNPRkr ==[ Summary ]== Several independent observations point to the fact that the visible mass in galaxies and galaxy clusters is insufficient to account for their dynamics, when analysed using Newton's laws. This is known as the "missing mass problem". This observation necessitates at least one of the following: There exists in galaxies large quantities of unseen matter which boosts the stars' velocities beyond what would be expected on the basis of the visible mass alone, or Newton's Laws do not apply to galaxies. Option 1 leads to the dark matter (DM) hypothesis; option 2 leads to MOND. ==[ Objectives ]== The main objective of this internship is to revisit the abovementioned and potentially other space-based tests of MOND and to reassess their feasibility in the light of current and potential future ESA missions and emergent technologies. An optional additional objective is to design and conceptually proof a new such space-based test. ==[ More information ]== For more information, please check out the full vacancy notice here: https://lnkd.in/eWBNPRkr (Topic 2)

During my Internship at Space Technology and Aeronautical Rocketry, under Sunny Kabrawala. I happened to be working on an On-Board Computer which is supposed to transmit data from a CUBESAT to Ground Station Wirelessly. The circuit consisted of a small yet essential component, an interial measurement unit (IMU), MPU6050 along with an Arduino Nano. While solving the problem statement, i started wondering of other applications of the measurements fetched from the sensor. Thats when i came across the idea of controlling an aircraft in Flight simulator through External Hardware, i.e. the sensor mentioned above. I combined my knowledge of programming language to interface the hardware with the OS. Using 'Processing' and 'Arduino IDE' and many hours of debugging errors, i successfully achieved by Goal. Although the project is quite small, easy and is not problem solving. Creating it from Scratch deepened by understanding of grand line that connects hardware to software.

Hello Everyone, As, today I am writing this debut post on this incredible platform, dedicated to professional growth and networking, I would like to share with you that me and my team marks the end of a two-month long journey of the Virtual Training & Internship Program at Space Technology and Aeronautical Rocketry. Here I would like to share my findings- Over the course of the internship, I delved into a multifaceted exploration of Space Flight Dynamics, encompassing a diverse array of topics and tools essential for navigating the complexities of space exploration. I learned about the complex structure of mathematics used to lift up a rocket and send it to moon, considering all kinds of practical hindrances. There we studied about Central Force motion, Hohmann transfer orbit, Manuevers, Tsiolkovsky equation and finite burn. Through hands-on experimentation and meticulous analysis, I gained a deeper understanding of the fundamental principles governing propulsion, aerodynamics, and orbital mechanics spacecraft propulsion systems. Central to this journey was the acquisition of proficiency in utilizing the OpenRocket simulator, a powerful software enabling the simulation and analysis of rocket designings. Additionally, this internship provided a unique opportunity to immerse myself in the intricacies of NASA's General Mission Analysis Tool (GMAT), a sophisticated software suite designed for mission planning and trajectory optimization. Through collaborative projects and guided exercises, I honed my skills in crafting mission scenarios, conducting sensitivity analyses, and synthesizing complex data to inform strategic decision-making in space exploration endeavors. Furthermore, the internship provided a tantalizing glimpse into the realm of Quantum Mechanics, offering an introductory exploration of the quantum phenomena shaping the fabric of the cosmos. While this foray into the quantum realm was brief, it underscored the interconnectedness of disparate scientific disciplines and the profound implications of quantum theory for our understanding of the universe. All of these learning were not be upto the mark if the guidance of Sunny Kabrawala, Founder and Director of Space Technology and Aeronautical Rocketry, was not there. I Would also like to give an applause to my team members Siva Priya and Ximena Perez Corona whose multidirectional supports, help all of us to complete the internship with an ease. This Virtual internship ignites the passion in me about solving problems which are beyond the scope, knowledge and skillset of a lot of people. I hope this ignition will lift off my career using the skills as one of the main thrusters. Space is for Everyone 🚀

I am thrilled to announce that I will be starting an internship this summer with The Institute of Cosmology and Gravitation - University of Portsmouth. I will be working on a cutting-edge project titled "Inferring Causation from Correlation", which sits at the fascinating intersection of statistics, data analysis, and machine learning. The primary goal of this project is to develop methodologies for inferring causal structures from observational data. Despite the potential of these methods, they have yet to see widespread application in science. My work will involve: - Reviewing the existing literature and public implementations of causal inference algorithms. - Applying these algorithms to both real-world and synthetic datasets to evaluate their performance. - Exploring the causal behavior of physical processes in scientific data, with a special focus on astrophysics. While our primary focus will be on astrophysics, the methodologies developed through this research have the potential for broad application across many fields, including finance, healthcare, social sciences, and more. By understanding and optimizing causal inference, we can unlock new insights and drive innovation in diverse areas of study. By the end of the summer, we aim to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the conditions under which causality can be inferred, optimized algorithms for causal inference, and new insights into the causal structures of various phenomena. I'm excited about the opportunity to contribute to this innovative field and look forward to sharing updates on our progress! A massive thanks to SEPnet, Michelle Limbert, Amy Carroll , CCVW and the entire team at Queen Mary Careers and Enterprise for their support during my application process. #internship #cosmology #gravitationalphysics #causality #machinelearning #dataanalysis #astrophysics #research #finance #healthcare #innovation

IISER Kolkata'27 | Astrophysics Enthusiast | Observational cosmology | Astronomica | Research intern @IIT Bhilai
I am thrilled to share that I've recently completed a 2-month internship at IIT Bhilai , where I had the opportunity to dive deep into the world of Computational astrophysics . Over these past weeks, I've been working with 55.9 lakh stars from GaiaData During my internship, I had the privilege to work on Gaia data which is regulated by the European Space Agency - ESA . The data collected by the Gaia satellite, which maps the Milky Way in three dimensions, is released in stages to the scientific community and the public. Here is the brief explanation of my work : Objective: To reconstruct the formation history of MW galaxy considering Metal-poor stars . Key Activities: 1) Selected Gaia DR3 for its extensive coverage in radial, vertical, and azimuthal directions. 2) Investigated star orbits to uncover their origins and gravitational influences. 3) Analyzed kinematical parameters and metallicity for approximately 55.9 lakh stars. 4) Calculated energy and angular momentum to differentiate between disc and halo stars. 5) Examined chemical abundances, focusing on α elements ([Fe/H] and [Mg/Fe]). Key Findings: 1) Metal-rich stars typically have higher angular momentum and belong to the disc. 2) Metal-poor stars possess lower angular momentum and energy, indicating random orbits. 3) The results highlight the galaxy’s early, unstable, and chaotic conditions, contributing to the understanding of stellar evolution and the history of the universe. Summery : This research provides a comprehensive understanding of the Milky Way's formation and evolution, highlighting the importance of star orbits and chemical abundances in revealing the galaxy's past. P.S - I'm attaching my report below ( This is not published ). Please go through ones and I'm looking forward to your suggestions. I am immensely grateful for the support and guidance from my mentor Mahavir Sharma who helps me to sharpen my professional career and team partner Yukta sarode for her valuable involvement . This internship has not only enhanced my knowledge but also provides us how to collaborate with others and to increase the connections. The comment section is open guys 😄 #internship
