Draft:Supriya Kumar Kar

  • Comment: You have tried to prove notability by adding considerable puffery. The claims are not valid. Don't try this type of bragging, the editors are not that inexperienced. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:51, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Unfortunately based just upon his publication record he does not meet the academic notability bar, see WP:NPROF. If he had any major national or (better) international awards those need to be included as they would help.
    N.B., much of that article is repetitive, please avoid that. Ldm1954 (talk) 18:01, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

Life, education and career

edit

Supriya Kumar Kar was an Indian theoretical physicist (5 August 1967– 5 May 2024) born in Adra, West Bengal, India. Supriya Kar obtained his B.Sc. degree from the Utkal University (FM College Baleshwar) in 1987 and his M.Sc. (Physics) degree from Utkal University (Vani Vihar) in 1990. He obtained his PhD degree from the Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar in 1995. Soon after his PhD, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Harish Chandra Research Institute, Allahabad (1995-1996). He then received a prestigious International award for being a visiting faculty (JSPS Fellow)[33] two times consecutively: first award during (1996-1997), followed by the second award during (1997-1998) from the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) in theoretical High Energy Physics at the University of Tokyo, Komaba, Japan, (1996-1997) and (1997-1998). Subsequently he again got an International award for being a visiting faculty (NFR Fellow)[34] at the Chalmers University of Technology, Goteborg, Sweden during the period (1998-2000) to work in the quantum gravity and string theory group. He was selected for the award of "Fast Track Young Scientists" by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), New Delhi, India during (2000) and again during (2002). He held the position of an Assistant Professor of Physics at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur during March 2001-December 2002. Eventually, he got appointed to a permanent faculty position as an Assistant Professor of Physics at the Department of Physics and Astrophysics, University of Delhi (2002-2007), where he again got appointed on an open position of Reader in Physics (2007-2010) and subsequently got promoted to a position of an Associate Professor of Physics (2010-2013). Eventually he got promoted to a position of (Full) Professor of Physics in 2013[35] a position which he held until he breathed his last on May 5, 2024, when his brilliant academic career came to an abrupt end at a young age of fifty six [36]

He was invited to referee the research articles for the prestigious journals like European Physical Journal C and Classical and Quantum Gravity. He received the outstanding Reviewer Award (2019) for the Journal: Classical and Quantum Gravity, a Journal of the Institute of Physics (IOP) UK, (date of award: 15th April, 2020)[40]. He was invited to author a book on: Noncommutative geometry - A Perspective on String and Field Theories, World Scientific Singapore (date of award: 2020-08-05)[41]. He was an Editor for the Special Issue on: "Black Holes and Cosmology" Journal of Astrophysics ad Aerospace Technology (2017)[42]. He was one of the co-editors of an Edited Volume of Nuclear Physics B Proceedings Supplements on the International Conference on Light-Cone Physics: Hadronic and Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics B Proceedings Supplement 251-252 (2014)[43]. He was an Editor of HEP - The Scientific World Journal, Hindawi Publication during 2013-2017. He was an Editor of the Journal of Astrophysics and Aerospace Tech, LA, USA, during (2011). He was an Editor of the International Scholarly Research Network (ISRN), Geometry Journal, during (2010).

Kar has written over 70 scientific articles which have received over 500 citations[44][45]
