In string theory, an S-brane is a hypothetical and controversial counterpart of a D-brane, which, unlike a D-brane, is localized in time.
 Depending on the context the "S" stands for "Strominger", "Sen", or "Space-like".
 The S-brane was originally proposed by Andrew Strominger in his speculative paper with Michael Gutperle, and another version of S-branes was studied by Ashoke Sen.
 They are thought to be extended in the space-like/temporal directions only, so that they exist at only one point in time, but are otherwise analogous to p-branes.
Ganapathy Baskaran is an Indian theoretical physicist, known for his work on condensed matter physics and strongly correlated materials.
 Baskaran is an Emeritus Professor of physics at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences in Chennai, India and a Distinguished Research Chair at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Canada.
Chandan Dasgupta (Bengali: চন্দন দাশগুপ্ত ), (born 1951) is an Indian theoretical physicist known for his contributions in condensed matter physics and statistical physics.
 He is at present a professor at Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore.
 He was the former dean of Undergraduate Program at Indian Institute of Science.
