Dr Rekha Jain works in the field of solar physics in which one studies various phenomena that occur on the Sun. She is interested in:
- investigating the effects of magnetism on the oscillations.
- studying wave propagation through gravitationally stratified atmospheres.
- resonant modes of magnetic loops in the sun’s corona.
- understanding how the Sun's outer atmosphere is heated to million degrees.
- modelling of magnetic reconnection and nanoflare heating.
- numerical simulation of forced magnetic reconnection.
