The second and third virial coefficient of a gas of nonspherical molecules of arbitrary symmetry have been calculated for a set of force parameters which has been found suitable to explain the dilute gas viscosity data. The influence of a large number of orientation dependent pair- and...

The thermodynamic perturbation theory in which all angle-dependent interactions are considered as a perturbation of the central potential is applied to study the equilibrium properties of a fluid composed of non-axial molecules. The influence of a large number of anisotropic pair and three-body...

We use the lattice model of directed walks to investigate the conformational as well as the adsorption properties of a semiflexible homopolymer chain immersed in a good solvent in 2D and 3D. To account for the stiffness in the chain we have introduced energy barrier for each bend in the walk and...

Using the functional differentiation and topological reduction technique, we derive effective pair potentials to describe the correlation functions and thermodynamic properties of fluids in the presence of three-body forces. Relations between effective pair potentials derived from different...

We first consider a test particle subjected to the simultaneous influence of a double-well mean field, thermal velocity distribution, external white noise and sinusoidal modulation. Within a path-integral framework the resulting power spectrum along with the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are...

A long flexible neutral polymer chain immersed in a poor solvent and interacting with an impenetrable attractive surface exhibits a phase known as surface attached globule (SAG) in addition to other adsorbed and desorbed phases. In the thermodynamic limit, the SAG phase has the same free energy...

Central Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (CIMAP) is the knowledge gateway of medicinal and aromatic plants related services and technologies. It organizes kisan mela (Farmers Fair) every year and display new varieties/technologies and innovative cultivation practices on commercially...
