SARASIJ MAJUMDER

He is a master blaster. He is Professor C.N.R. Rao. He was also awarded BHARAT RATNA (highest civilian award) in 2014 with Mr. Sachin Tendulkar by President Pranab Mukherjee. He is the third scientist receiving this award after C V Raman and APJ Abdul Kalam. He has done a lot of work in solid state and structural chemistry. He has authored around 1,500 research papers and 45 scientific books. With citations of around 44,000, Rao is on the editorial boards of several leading journals dealing with chemistry, chemical physics, materials science and solid-state chemistry.

If I have to mention here his all achievements the BLOG will be too big.

C.N.R. Rao received the maximum number of votes from chemists across the world in the choice for the Nobel Prize in 2016 but he did not get it. You Know Why???

 Prof. Rao also received international honour for material research. He is the first Asian to be chosen for the prestigious Von Hippel Award.

His contribution: - Rao was one of the earliest to synthesise two-dimensional oxide materials such as La2CuO4.  He was one of the first to synthesise 123 cuprates, the first liquid nitrogen-temperature superconductor in 1987. He was also the first to synthesis Y junction carbon nanotubes in the mid-1990s. His work has led to a systematic study of compositionally controlled metal-insulator transitions.

AFTER COMPLETING M.SC. at BHU, HE WORKED WITH Dr. LINUS PAULING’s PhD (post-doctoral degree) students in Purdue University in the US. After researching also in Berkeley University under leading scientists of the time, he decided to return to India, even though he had felt at home in the US, both academically and culturally.

WHERE HE WORKED in INDIA: -

IIT (KANPUR), IISC (BANGALORE)—Retired as Director, Associated with ISRO. Functioning as an Adviser to PM in Science, and Technology.

He is working now at Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research in Bangalore, a centre for pioneering scientists, set up by him.

OPERATION SINDOOR ||| ECONOMIC LOSSES OF PAKISTAN

  OPERATION SINDOOR ECONOMIC LOSSES OF PAKISTAN SARASIJ MAJUMDER It will be difficult for Pakistan to come out of the loss it suffered in this 4-day KINETIC WAR, fought only in the airspace, involving Fighter Jets, Missiles, and DRONES as attacking weapons. Pakistan claims that J-10C jets, equipped with PL-15 missiles, were used in combat, and that they downed multiple Indian Rafale and other fighter jets. GOI has not accepted any loss of Fighter Jet. No image of Rafael lost is available. GOI is not declaring the HITS it inflicted upon Pakistan. Even then, I have pieced together the information and provided a picture. A. The expenses due to direct losses of HARDWARE may be divided into the following items: - 1.0 Fighter Jets: -- May be 10 Numbers. 4-F16 as a combat loss. 2 Nos. Mirage 2000 and 4 Nos. F16, possibly due to the hit it received when parked on the Air Bases. However, this figure could be more.   Pakistan's retired Air Marshal Masood Akhtar public...

UNDERSTANDING WOMEN

  UNDERSTANDING WOMEN SARASIJ MAJUMDER   In a poem titled   ‘ বিদায় অভিশাপ ’—(FAREWELL CURSE)--, Tagore wrote: ........ রমণীর   মন   সহস্র বর্ষেরই   সখা সাধনার ধন । । [ ( To understand) Mind of a woman, my dear, ||You need a devotion of thousand years. ]—- Translation is mine. In simple language—‘One Life is not good enough to understand the mind of a Woman’—that is what, Devyani—the heroine of the poem said to Koch, her beloved. And I agree after completing 46 years of married life! However, based on my experience—I wanted to write an article on the subject, sharing my understanding for Romeos of future generations. This BLOG is an attempt towards that. Before I start—I want to share an interesting dialogue I had in an evening, with one of my American friend, ( married, and was living with wife and kids,) at his Ranch at Texas. When the darkness of evening started falling upon us, he told me: “….Mate—I understand Machines, Horses, Dogs…...

  RISHI,MUNI,SADHU,GURU SADHAK,SANNYASI,YOGI SARASIJ MAJUMDUR In our country, all the persons listed above are not generally differentiated much, by us. Writers also, somewhat loosely used the nomenclatures in their writings. Though they have many commonalities, each one   of them is different, in their PRACTICE,   PURPOSE OF LIFE, AND LEADING   THE LIFE.   We will discuss about them, with the basic differences, in short. The one thing common about them is- that all of them are ‘Spiritual Persons’, and carry the higher form of ‘Sanatan Dharma’, or ‘Hinduism’—as we may understand easily. 1.0   RISHI: He is connected to, and composer of   VEDA, Vedanga, Vedanta--or Knowledge. There are a few higher stratas as well e.g. MAHARSHI (KANWA), RAJARSHI (King Janaka), DEBARSHI (NARODA),   ‘SHRUTORSHI’—who learned, and remember VEDAS by hearing, e.g. Vasishta; or only ‘Rishi’-e.g. Gautama.   There are 18 ‘VEDABYASAS’—and all are ‘MAHARSHIS’. ...
