The Ramgarh structure, a large meteorite impact structure in India – Fieldwork and petrographic investigations to better understand its formation. Soddjartj Raipriye, Indian Institue of Technology, Roorkee, India Ramgarh Structure is a well-known geological feature located in the Indian state of Rajasthan, and its impact origin has been discussed for a long time in the scientific community. But due to lack of well-characterized shocked metamorphic features, such as quartz grains with PDFs, its impact origin is still debated. The main objective of this project is to further confirm the impact origin of the Ramgarh structure and to better estimate its original size. In this project, I and Dr. Ludovic Ferriere will undertake an extensive field exploration to find and collect a large suite of rocks with shock features for petrographic investigations, to get a statistically significant number of definitive shock quartz grains. Petrographic thin sections will be prepared and searched carefully in the lab for shock features such as planar deformation features (PDFs) in quartz using optical microscopy. Possible shocked grains would then be investigated using the U-Stage to determine the crystallographic orientations of the features. This project will allow a better understanding of the origin of the Ramgarh structure. I hope that this work will motivate other Indian students and geologists to work on the two impact craters confirmed in India, Lonar, and Dhala, and on possible other ones yet to be confirmed in India and worldwide. Personal Statement About My Interest in Science My interest in science dates back to my early years in school. I spent most of the time during my summer vacations, reading random science facts from encyclopedias, and doing experiments. Watching TV shows such as “Backyard Science” and repeating the same experiments at home are among the most cherished memories of my life. On my 14th birthday, my mom had gifted me an astronomical telescope. Looking at lunar craters and exploring night sky become a new hobby at that time. I liked observing at the night sky to search for meteors during power cuts. I used to make paper models of Space Shuttles and rockets to satisfy my newfound curiosity in space exploration. My dad used to assist and guide me in most of my childhood scientific endeavors. After school, I joined the Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee (IIT Roorkee) with Geology as my major, after clearing the JEE Advanced Examination, one of the most competitive exams in India. During my college, I had the opportunity to be exposed to the domain of Planetary Sciences and rekindle my childhood interest in space exploration. I did my first research internship in this field at Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad, a sister organization of ISRO. I studied and classified an ordinary chondrite and determined its mineral composition. This internship gave me experience in working with analytical instruments and my first research exposure in Planetary Sciences. This experience was crucial, as it helped me narrow down my area of interest. My next internship was at the Natural History Museum, Vienna, with Dr. Ludovic Ferrière. I worked on two projects: First project was to classify 2 previously unclassified meteorites (NWA 12841 and San Salvador River). The second project was to characterize shocked quartz grains from the Shiyili Impact Structure in Kazakhstan. Being an intern at the NHMV, which houses one of the largest meteorite collections, was an opportunity of a lifetime and a wonderful learning experience. Many of my college presentations (as part of the curriculum) were on the topics closely related to space, such as “Exploration of Water on Mars” and “History of Modern Rockets.” Being our neighbor, I believe we must know more about Mars if we plan to make our species multiplanetary. All these experiences provided have provided me with valuable insight into the research field. In the long run, I want to contribute to the pool of knowledge in Planetary Sciences and Space Exploration for the greater good of society.

he main Bhand Deva Temple or Bhand Devara Temple is situated on the banks of a pond in the centre of the 4 km wide Ramgarh crater about 40 km from the city of Baran, Rajasthan, which was possibly created by a meteor. It is located near Ramgarh village, Mangrol, Baran district of Eastern Rajasthan. Coordinates: 25°20'0"N 76°37'27"E
THE RAMGARH CRATER AS SEEN FROM SKY 4KM
The main Shiva temple was constructed in the style of Khajuraho Group of Monuments and is known as ‘Little Khajuraho.’ Up a flight of more than 750 stairs are two related temples located in a cave on Ramgarh Hill and dedicated to the goddesses Kisnai and Annapurna (Annapoorna devi). The stairs are said to have been constructed by Jhala Jalim (or Zalim) Singh (a descendant of Madhu Singh Madho Singh I), who ruled as a regent over Jhalawar State from 1771 until the British intervention in 1838. During Kartik Purnima (Kartik Poornima) a fair is organised at this temple for worshiping the two goddesses.[2] The site is now protected by the State Archaeological Department.[3] An inscription on a plaque at the site records the history of the main Shiva temple as: "Shiv-Temple (Bhand Devara) Ramgarh This temple dedicated to Tantric tradition of Saivism is a noteworthy example of Nagar style temple. As the inscriptions state, it was built in the 10th century by Raja Malaya Verma of Nag dynasty of Malwa as a memorial of his victory over his enemies and as a tribute showing his gratitude to Lord Shiva whom he held in esteem. With the passage of time in 1162 A.D., the edifice was renovated by Raja Trisna Verma of Med dynasty. The temple has audience hall vestibule spire and base. The audience hall has eight huge pillars with images of yaksha, Kinnar Kichak Vidyachar gods and goddesses apsanas and amorous couples."[4] References http://wikimapia.org/13833251/Bhand-Devra-Ramgarh-Archaeological-Site http://www.holidayiq.com/Bhand-Devra-Temple-Baran-Sightseeing-1108-15838.html http://allaboutindia.info/tourism-in-india/ramgarh-bhand-devra-temple/#pdUaTFvyC1czBBVK.99 File:Bhand devra2

Shiva Temple Known as BHAND DEVA TEMPLE.
Ramgarh-Bhand Devra temples are situated about 40 Km. from Baran. The Shiv Mandir of Ramgarh was built in 10th century and are based on the Khujraho style. Due to the Maithun Statues, the place is named as Bhand Devra. This temple is situated on the bank of pond and now under the Archaeological department. This temple is known as Rajasthan's mini Khujraho.On the top of the Ramgarh hill, Kisnai and Annapurna Devi temples are situated in the natural cave. About 750 stairs were constructed by Jhala Jalim Singh for reaching the temple on the hill top. The main speciality of this temple is that one Devi is worshiped with Meva and another is with Mas-Madira. At the time of Parshad, curtain is raised between the two Devis. Fair is also organised during Kartik Purnima.

INSIDE THE RAMGARH CRATER

The largest unconfirmed craters 200 km (120 mi) or more are significant not only for their size, but also for the possible coeval events associated with them. For example, the Wilkes Land crater has been connected to the massive Permian–Triassic extinction event.[21] The sortable table has been arranged by diameter.

The global distribution of known impact structures apparently shows a surprising asymmetry,[29] with the small but well-funded European continent having a large percentage of confirmed craters. It is suggested this situation is an artifact, highlighting the importance of intensifying research in less studied areas like Antarctica, South America and elsewhere.
