Basic Science

PART-1 Before we can attempt to answer as to what should be considered a goldstandard of creativity. It is necessary to develop an idea of what creativity is allabout. Let us ask the interesting question whom should we consider as morecreative a scientist or a painter? To better appreciate it, let us ask a complexquestion

Part-B Pump-probe spectroscopy is a powerful experimental technique used in physics and chemistry to study ultrafast processes. Its basic principle revolves around the controlled interaction of two precisely timed laser pulses with a material. Here’s how it works: Pump Pulse    – The first laser pulse, known as the “pump” pulse, is a high-intensity and very

Nobel prize in Physics was won by Pierre Agostini, Ferenc Krausz and Anne L’Huillier. Their area of specialisation and affiliation are given as below. 1-Pierre AgostiniFrench experimental physicist and Emeritusprofessor at The Ohio State University, Columbus, USA. He is especially known for the observation of above-threshold ionization and the invention of the reconstruction of attosecond beating by interference of two-photon transitions (RABBITT)

Part-1 It was the establishment of the Department of Science and Technology (DST) in 1971 that started the journey and played a significant role in providing a dedicated focus on research and innovation in the field of science. The formation of DST helped centralize efforts to promote scientific research, technology development, and innovation in the country.
