SPECIFIC RESEARCH CONTRIBUTION

The work done over nearly two decades makes distinct contributions to our understanding of

atomic motions in liquids. Several exact sum rules have been derived for the dynamical

correlation functions of momentum currents and energy current density fluctuations. These

results have been used to make acceptable predictions of the transport coefficients of

classical fluids. Mass and concentration dependence of transport properties in mixture of

fluids has been studied to provide results in agreement with experimental results. One of the

important contribution is to show that self-diffusion of a massive tracer in a fluid has a

limiting value which has been confirmed later on by group at University in UK.

Binary collision contribution to the memory function of current correlation functions

for a fluid, particles of which are interacting via continuous potential, is an important

contribution to the development of complete microscopic theory for classical many body

system. A method has been developed to add systematically higher order terms of binary

contribution to time correlation function. It has been shown for the first time that Mode-

Coupling contribution is one of the way of expressing contribution due to many body

correlations.

A simple model for diffusion coefficient developed by us has been successfully

applied by others and by us to systems like LJ fluids, Yukawa fluid, molten salt, Chemla

mixture, super ionic conductors, inert liquid mixture and confined fluids.

Inclusion of dynamical correlations in many body theory of electron and Bose systems

has brought theoretical results quite closer to experimental/computer simulation results.

Self-diffusion coefficients of a fluid confined to slab and cylindrical geometries at

nano-scale with varying widths have been studied by considering different density profiles. It

is shown that confinement to nano length scale results in anisotropic diffusion and the

diffusion coefficient is directly dependent on the width of the channel and the density profile.

Recently we have developed a model for restricted diffusion in nano-channels. The model is

built on the consideration that the confinement affects molecular motion. The model

introduces the concept of microscopic (local) self-diffusion coefficient which varies as a

function of distance from the walls of the channel. As one moves towards the confining walls

of nanotubes the self diffusion coefficient decreases, affecting the fluidity of the fluid in a

nano-channel. It has also been proved by proposing model that denser fluid provides an

additional artificial wall which restricts the flow of fluid in a narrow channel. Relevance of

the work to the human health care.
