Research summary
AI-generated

This publication record spans a mix of space instrumentation work—particularly the Chandrayaan-2 lunar X-ray spectrometer (CLASS) and related detector development—alongside spacecraft battery modeling, X-ray/UV detector materials (using reduced graphene oxide), and separate, apparently unrelated work on engine combustion and concrete materials. The core thread appears to be instrumentation and data analysis for lunar/space science missions, including detector design, calibration, and spacecraft power system modeling. Because the publication list mixes several distinct topics, it may represent contributions to multiple collaborative projects rather than a single focused research program.

Publication output has grown from about 1 per year in 2017 to a peak of around 8-9 per year in 2021 and 2023, suggesting a generally increasing to steady pace of activity over the last decade with some year-to-year fluctuation.
