When scientists discovered the Higgs boson in 2012, they found a key piece of the puzzle of how elementary particles acquire mass. Could it belong to a larger family?

Researchers from IITGN and the HRI explored a theory called the Three Higgs Doublet Model (3-HDM), which allows for additional Higgs particles.

Sorting through its many possibilities is a huge task. The team used active learning, a machine learning method that makes the search smarter by learning from earlier checks to map out the allowed scenarios.

Their findings leave room for one Higgs particle lighter than the one already discovered. Within the model and conditions studied, the arrangement with two lighter counterparts was ruled out.

This helps narrow the possibilities for future particle searches.

The team includes Prof Nipun Batra, Prof Baradhwaj Coleppa, Dr Akshat Khanna, Prof Santosh Kumar Rai, and Dr Agnivo Sarkar

Congratulations to Harshiddhi Pathak (PhD student, Artificial Intelligence, CSE); Neeta Khanuja (Visiting PhD Researcher from CMU, USA); and Param Rajpura (PhD student, Cognitive Science) from the Human AI Interaction (HAIx) Lab, CSE,ย  IIT Gandhinagar, for securing Second Place in the BCI Programming Track at the BR41N.IO Designerโ€™s Hackathon, held during the IEEE SMC 2026 conference and the IEEE SMC 16th Workshop on Brain-Machine Interface (BMI) Systems in Bellevue, USA.

Their project, NeuroPottery, explores collaborative virtual pottery-making by combining brain and physiological signals with virtual reality (VR)-based hand interactions.

The photograph features Prof Yogesh Kumar Meena, Harshiddhi Pathak and Param Rajpura, while Neeta Khanuja was also an integral member of the winning team.

The team acknowledged Prof Yogesh Kumar Meena, Assistant Professor of Computer Science and Engineering and PI of the Human AI Interaction (HAIx) Lab, CSE, IIT Gandhinagar, for his guidance, mentorship, and support.

Congratulations to the team on this achievement!

Dr Alok Kumar Thakur, a PhD graduate from the research group of Prof Sameer Patel, Associate Professor, Civil Engineering and Chemical Engineering, IIT Gandhinagar, has received the Outstanding PhD Thesis Award at IASTA 2026 โ€“ National Conference on Aerosol Science & Technology.

Held at IIT Kharagpur Research Park, Kolkata, the conference is a leading national forum in aerosol science and technology, organised by the Indian Aerosol Science and Technology Association (IASTA), a member association of the International Aerosol Research Assembly (IARA).

Currently pursuing his postdoctoral research at Colorado State University, USA, Dr Thakur participated in the conference virtually. Prof Sameer Patel received the award certificate on his behalf.

Dr Thakur and Prof Patel are grateful for the support from the Prime Minister's Research Fellows Scheme, the Scheme for Promotion of Academic and Research Collaboration (SPARC, Ministry of Education), Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB, Department of Science and Technology), and Higher Education Financing Agency (HEFA).
