Early life and education

Yadav Pandit was born in Tikuri, Pyuthan District, located in the western hills of Nepal. He is the youngest child of Bhuwaneshwar Pandit and Radhika Pandit. He was educated first at Shishu Kalyan Primary School in Tikuri and then at Janata High School Bagdula, from where he graduated S.L.C. He studied science at Tribhuvan University, from where he obtained a M.Sc., and later went to the United States for further education, earning a Ph.D. degree in Experimental Nuclear Physics from Kent State University.

Research

Pandit's research involves the experimental study of high-energy nuclear collisions using accelerators. He is a member of STAR collaboration, a large international group of scientists working at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) facility, Brookhaven National Laboratory.

Pandit is an expert in measurements of anisotropy, studying fluid-like behavior and phase transitions in the dense and highly excited matter created in these collisions. In 2014, his work related to the observation of first-order phase transition in subatomic nuclear matter gained worldwide attention and was widely reported. He is one of the very few Nepali scholars who had successes making significant contribution in fundamental science research.
