WELCOME FRESHERS !

We all talk about GUT and stuff these days. But one of the very 1st unifications was initiated by an observation by X in 1820.The cgs unit for magnetic field strength is named after him.

In fact, it’s the 236th birth anniversary of this great man today.

Golden ratio ( Phi – ф )

Fibonacci sequence

X is an extracellular retinal protein, 1st described in 2008 by a Japanese research team headed by Shigeru Sato et al., and named after Y, a famous

Japanese character .

The name of X was inspired by Y’s "lightning-fast moves and shocking electric effects

Gimme X/Y …

Fermat’s last theorem

In 2005, scientists made a very astounding discovery in Lake Mono of USA, when they found out a microbial life form with a specific element incorporated into its cell structure.It was the 1st time this element was found in any living being. The matter is still amidst quite a bit of controversy, due to many doubts.

Which element was found in the microbe ??

Arsenic

Fe unit cell – BCC –

magnified 165 billion times

Which country is referred to as the “ 8th continent “ due to its rich & rare

biodiversity ??

When is International Pi day celebrated ?

Also, name the stalwart of science born on this date ??!!

X is one of the greatest Indian physicists ever lived, but unfortunately unknown & unrecognized by most of the people. His impact on physics is really tremendous, particularly the theories in quantum optics, proposals on tachyons etc..

He was denied the Nobel at-least twice, in 1979 & 2005, where in both cases, his contributions won the prize, but the credit went to others.

Who is X ???

The LHC experiment

Rosalind Franklin

Keibul Lamjao national park on lake Loktak
