Sridhar Iyer: Publications
The copyright for the camera-ready version of a paper is usually with the publisher. The links on this page are to pre-print versions of these papers.

Here are some articles written for a Children's Science Magazine -- Jantar Mantar. I have been planning to compile them into a book, since 2006!
