The twenty-first century has witnessed remarkable advances in science and technology, driven by the increasing integration of knowledge across traditional disciplinary boundaries. The physical, chemical, and mathematical sciences continue to play a fundamental role in addressing contemporary challenges related to energy, environment, healthcare, materials development, computation, and sustainable growth. In this rapidly evolving scientific landscape, interdisciplinary research has emerged as a powerful catalyst for innovation and discovery. Emerging Research Trends in Physical, Chemical, and Mathematical Sciences is a peer
reviewed edited volume that brings together twenty-three scholarly contributions that reflect recent developments and emerging directions in a wide range of scientific fields. The chapters included in this volume highlight both fundamental investigations and applied research, offering valuable insights into contemporary scientific challenges and technological advancements. The book covers diverse topics such as ionic liquid-mediated CO₂ capture and utilization, density functional theory studies of molecular systems, atmospheric pressure glow discharge plasma, gold based bimetallic nanoparticles for cancer diagnosis and therapy, neutrino less double beta decay, and quantum chromodynamic studies of mesons. Advances in materials science and nanotechnology are represented through discussions on graphene oxide nanostructures, solid polyelectrolytes, chalcone-based materials, and the physical and optical properties of minerals.
