==Research==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:IOP Bhubaneswar library.JPG|thumb|200px|IOPB library]]&lt;br /&gt;
The institute conducts research in [[theoretical physics|theoretical]] and [[experimental physics|experimental]] [[physics]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Theoretical physics===&lt;br /&gt;
Research areas in theoretical physics include [[condensed matter theory]], [[nuclear physics|nuclear]] and [[particle physics|high energy physics]]. High-energy theorists at IOP have made contributions to [[field theory (physics)|field theories]], [[phase transitions]] in early universe, [[cosmology]], the [[Planck scale]] phenomena, [[string theory]] and high-energy nuclear physics such as qgp, equation of state and nuclear astrophysics, neutron stars, high-energy [[Phenomenology (particle physics)|phenomenology]] and neutrino physics phenomenology.&amp;lt;ref name=dae/&amp;gt; In theoretical condensed matter physics, research is centered on disordered systems, [[magnetism]], [[superconductivity]], low-dimensional systems, [[statistical physics]], strongly correlated systems, [[phase transitions]], [[Cluster (physics)|clusters]] and [[nanomaterials]].&amp;lt;ref name=dae/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Experimental physics===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Ion beam lab IOPB.jpg|thumb|200px|The Ion Beam Laboratory at IOP]]&lt;br /&gt;
The experimental physics group encompasses accelerator-based research for advanced chemical and radioisotope analysis. The ion beam laboratory (IBL) is equipped with a 3MV [[tandem accelerator]] (NEC 9SDH-2).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.iopb.res.in/ibl.php#1|title=Experimental Facilities, Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar|accessdate=2009-10-25}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Research at the IBL includes [[Rutherford scattering|Rutherford back scattering]], [[Particle-induced X-ray emission]], accelerator [[mass spectrometry]], [[Channelling (physics)|channeling]], ion implantation, surface modification and characterization, microbeam analysis and [[nuclear reaction]] studies.{{citation needed|date=June 2018}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 3 million volt NEC 9SDH-2 pelletron accelerator of the Accelerator Mass Spectrometry lab is a multi-disciplinary research accelerator for various physics experiments.&amp;lt;ref name=ams&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.iopb.res.in/~ams/|title=AMS Homepage|accessdate=2009-10-25|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080530154129/http://www.iopb.res.in/~ams/|archive-date=30 May 2008|url-status=dead}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The experimental facilities available in the ion beam laboratory include an [[accelerator mass spectrometry]] (AMS) for [[radiocarbon dating]], micro-beam facility and an external beam facility.&amp;lt;ref name=ams/&amp;gt; Other experimental facilities include an ESCA ([[electron spectroscopy]] for chemical analysis), HRTEM (high resolution transmission [[electron microscope]]), MBE ([[molecular beam epitaxy]]), cluster generator and [[Nanotechnology|nano material]] research facility.{{citation needed|date=June 2018}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Education==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Institute runs regular pre-doctoral ([[Master of Philosophy]]) and doctoral ([[PhD.]]) programs for postgraduate students of physics. The course work is planned to emphasize doctoral research and teaching skills.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.indianstudentsforum.com/admissions/institute-of-physics-bhubaneswar-phd-admission-2009/|title=Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar - PhD.
