Different aspects of ancient India have been studied by several separate groups on their own with restricted interaction between like-minded scientists. Interdisciplinary interactions have been few and far apart. This has restricted the scope of cross subject studies. In addition, instrumentation facilities in archaeology in India are also woefully inadequate.To bridge this gap between scientists and the experimental needs of the future, a mini Program on "Future of the Past" is being organized. Experts from different areas will come together on a common platform and try to evolve a strategy for the future path of archaeological studies in India. The focus of the Program will be to discuss the instrumentation needs of the future in the field of archaeology and related fields and the manner in which they can be acquired.The format of the Program is the following. The morning sessions are devoted to presentations by experts in the field. Afternoons are devoted to demonstrations of availa...

A finite nucleus is a unique mesoscopic system composed of strongly interacting neutrons and protons. Investigation of its structure at varying angular momentum, isospin and temperature provides new insight about the dynamics involved in the variety of emergent phenomena in this many-body system. With the advent of new accelerator facilities in India and worldwide, it is now possible to explore nuclear properties at limits of binding. This has thrown open a wide forum of novel nuclear physics problems in different length scales. Nuclear physics research is focused on exploring the science of atomic nuclei, its relevance in understanding processes like supernova and addressing open questions about fundamental symmetries of nature.
