Our research group has been working on chemical applications of quantum computing and spectroscopy of energetic molecules using Synchrotron radiation (RRCAT-Indore). In the past, at Indian Institute of Science, our group had worked on exploring different aspects of attosecond dynamics of chemical bonding (see Int. Rev. Phys. Chem., 2021, 40, 405-455). Our long term goal is to set up facilities for attosecond/femtosecond X-ray science and quantum optics with chemical applications in mind.
