Biography



Sadhan Kumar Adhikari is an Indian professor of physics, since 1991, at the Institute of Theoretical Physics (IFT) of the São Paulo State University (UNESP).

Early life

Sadhan Kumar Adhikari was born to Nalini Ranjan and Mira Adhikari on 2nd January 1948 in Kharagpore, India. In 1962 he graduated from Hindu School, Kolkata and then joined Bachelor of Science program at the Presidency University, Kolkata which he finished with honours by 1965. The same year he started Master of Science degree at the Calcutta University which he completed by 1968. For a year he was a post-M.Sc fellow at the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics and by 1969 joined University of Pennsylvania for a PhD program in physics. From 1973 to 1976 worked at the University of New South Wales as a post-doc scholar and since 1976 till 1991 was an Associate Professor at the Federal University of Pernambuco.

Research

In his publication (coauthored with I. H. Sloan) in Physical Review C journal he studied seprable approximations to S-wave Yukawa potentials. In 1986 he formulated the quantum scattering theory in two dimensions and wrote Lippmann–Schwinger equations and the asymptotic wave function for scattering. From 2002 to 2009 he and Paulsamy Muruganandam used Gross-Pitaevskii equation to study Bose-Einstein condensation using FORTRAN 77 programs. In 2004-2005 he used the Gross-Pitaevskii equation to understand the formation of bright solitons in a Bose-Einstein condensate. In 2012 he, Antun Balaž, and colleagues from the Institute of Physics, Scientific Computing Laboratory, Belgrade wrote C programs to solve Gross–Pitaevskii equation and study Bose–Einstein condensates using the Crank–Nicolson method. He is the author of two books on scattering theory published by Academic Press, San Francisco, Hard cover (1988),Paperback (2012) and eTextbook (2012) and by John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1998.
