Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it.
Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.
--Goethe

Hello visitor. Welcome to my home-page!

I am Tabish. I am a physicist by profession, and am interested in lots of things, some of which you will figure out as you go through this page.

Academic journey

I finished my Ph.D. work in Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. Then I was a post-doc at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Madras for two and a half years. Then I was at the Indira Gandhi Center for Atomic Research for nearly two year, until I ran into problems because of my stand against nuclear weapons. At present I am Lecturer at Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi.

My other interests are computers and everything related to them, and promoting scientific temper around me. I am also interested in understanding people, and hence my interest in psychology. This has also led me into philosophy, but not of the vague kind! :-)
I think this is enough about me for the time being, but if you insist that seeing is believing, then here is me!

Sweetest person in the world is HERE :-)

My World of Physics

My major interest is physics. To be more specific, my research interests are quantum dissipative systems, quantum-classical correspondence and quantum coherence in condensed matter physics.
Lately I have been interested in the structure and electronic properties of small clusters of metal atoms. This is a new and interesting field.

Here I describe some of the work which I have done, in a simpler and less technical language. I hope you will enjoy this. This section is still under construction.

:-) Quantum tunneling of hydrogen in niobium

:-) Cluster world!

:-) Protective measurements in quantum mechanics.

:-) A Fractal!

Animal World

"The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for whites or women for men."

Web designing

Web designing is one of my favourite hobbies, apart from generally hacking (playing around with software). Here are a some sites which I have created: Recently I started learning Urdu and also decided to find an easy way of putting Urdu in the web-pages. The result was this small program:
U-TRANS
U-TRANS allows you to write webpages with Urdu written in a simple transliteration code, which is very close to the phonetic writing of words in roman script. It then converts this files into an HTML file which contains characters for the Urdu text using a unicode font.

:-) Hope you had a nice time - come again!
