Rate My Professor Alok Jha

His research interests encompass relativistic atomic structure calculations for atoms and highly charged ions, studies of photon and electron interactions with atoms and ions—including photoionization cross sections and electron impact excitation collision strengths—atomic processes in plasma environments, particularly the effects of strongly coupled plasma on atomic structure and processes, and laser-atom interactions such as above-threshold ionization and high harmonic generation in plasma. Among his key publications are "A Study of the Atomic Processes of Highly Charged Ions Embedded in Dense Plasma" (Atoms, 2023, co-authored with M. Dimri, D. Dawra, and M. Mohan), "Influence of strongly coupled plasma environment on photoionization of H-like O⁷⁺ ion" (Physics of Plasmas, 2021), "Plasma screening effects on the atomic structure of He-like ion embedded in strongly coupled plasma" (Physics Letters A, 2020), "Photoionization cross section for Ni XIX" (The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2007), and "New relativistic atomic data of Fe IX" (Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2006). He has authored numerous papers on photoionization, excitation, and radiative properties of various ions in prestigious journals including The European Physical Journal D, Radiation Physics and Chemistry, and New Astronomy.
