Research Interest:
Plasma constitutes a significant portion of the universe, and recent developments have revealed its role in the universe’s evolution, including the Sun’s involvement in the development of the heliosphere and its impact on Earth. However, several fundamental processes concerning the Sun require further investigation, such as space weather prediction, coronal heating, predicting solar eruptions, particle acceleration, wave-particle interaction, and the origin of solar wind. Dr. Shaikh’s research is focused on these aspects. He has worked on various projects and is interested in the following fields: Waves in space plasma, evolution of ICMEs/CIRs in the heliosphere, instabilities associated with temperature anisotropy in space plasma, thermodynamics of solar wind, turbulence of solar wind structures, and space weather phenomena such as geomagnetic storms and ICME/CIR induced cosmic ray modulation.
