Mr. Arpan Sharma has been selected as a Distinguished APS-FIP Student with a cash award of USD 1000 by the APS Forum on International Physics (FIP), together with the Forum on Graduate Student Affairs (FGSA), the sponsors of the APS Distinguished Student Seminar Series (DS3) program.
 Mr Arpan Sharma has been selected and invited by APS Forum on International Physics, American Physical Society to present his research work (Purging of liquid hydrogen from space shuttle or space planes by liquid helium and to create simulation environment through smooth particle hydrodynamics method for it) at the APS April Meeting Salt Lake City, Utah. The meeting will bring together hundreds of physicists to present the latest research in numerous scientific disciplines.

The Forum on International Physics invited applications to the Distinguished Student Seminar Program, an initiative which recognizes outstanding students in any field of physics in academic and research excellence or Student teaching or Outreach to schoolchildren and the public or Leadership in diffusing the knowledge of physics in one's home country or abroad.

Successful applicants were to be invited to an annual APS meeting in 2016 to give a seminar on their work, or participate in a panel dealing with issues affecting students.

Following the initiative the Forum wanted to recognize the outstanding students which they believed can be a career changing experience for the student and support funding which is often insufficient to meet existing needs and opportunities.


A very moment not just for the student but for the University as well for scaling new heights and setting new standards.
