Dr. Bikramaditya Mandal

Hello! My name is Bikramaditya Mandal. I am a Postdoctoral Scholar working with Prof. Balakrishnan Naduvalath at University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) since January 2023. My research at UNLV is primarily focused on quantum control of cold and ultracold inelastic collisions and reactions of alkali metals. Additionally, I initiated a project where we applied Machine Learning (ML) using Neural Networks (NNs) to build databases of rate coefficients for astronomical modelling of exoplanet atmospheres, the interstellar medium (ISM), and comets.
Prior to UNLV, I worked as a Postdoctoral Scholar with Prof. Dmitri Babikov at Marquette University (May 2021 – December 2022). My primary research was the development of Mixed Quantum/Classical Theory (MQCT) to study inelastic scattering of molecules.
I earned my Ph.D. from Marquette University (2021) after completing my B.Sc. (Hons.) and M.Sc. in Chemistry from Visva-Bharati University, India. I received the Denis J. O'Brien Summer Scholarship (2019), the Dr. John J. Eisch Fellowship (2020–2021), and the American Institute of Chemists (AIC) Award (2021) for research excellence.
