My research focus was
in the field of ion beam analysis (IBA), which is essentially an offshoot of
nuclear physics in which accelerator - based techniques are applied to a large variety of analytical
problems, and an opportunity arose for me to continue my work at the National University of Singapore (NUS).
In the past methods developed to understand partitions have later been applied to
physics problems such as the theory of the strong
nuclear force or the entropy of black holes.
