Moreover, plasma is an ionized-quasineutral state of matter that exhibits collective behavior and can exist at diverse conditions, e.g., much below room temperatures to above the temperature at the core of the Sun. Although its occurrence on Earth is only during lightning and in laboratory experiments, more than 99% of visible matter in the universe exists in the plasma state. It is of interest, as it has found applications in diverse areas such as agriculture, controlled thermonuclear fusion, electronics, gas lasers, lightning, medicine, pollution control, space science, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chair:&nbsp;<strong>Prof. Dr. Raju Khanal<\/strong>&nbsp;(<a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20210127002951\/mailto:raju.khanal@cdp.tu.edu.np)\">raju.khanal@cdp.tu.edu.np)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Members:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prof. Dr. Deepak Prasad Subedi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Lekhanath Mishra<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Hom Bahadur Baniya<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Ujwal Man Joshi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Raju Bhai Tyata<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Rajendra Shrestha<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Ganashyam Thakur<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Devendra Raj Upadhyay<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Arun Kumar Shrestha<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Roshan Chalise<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Rajesh Kumar Guragain<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Division of Nuclear and Plasma Physics (DNPP) This division includes nuclear science and engineering related to radiation detection, monitoring, radiation effects, nuclear biomedicine, and industrial applications.
