BOSE INSTITUTE From the Director’s Desk am delighted to present the Annual Report of Bose Institute for Ithe period 1st April, 2017 to 31st March, 2018. The year 2017 was an eventful one for all of us as we celebrated the centenary of our Institute in a befitting manner by organizing symposia, lectures and outreach programs. We consider ourselves privileged that two presidential visits took place in 2017 in connection with our centenary celebrations. First Shri Pranab Mukherjee, the then Hon'ble President of India, visited and inaugurated our new campus at sector V, Salt Lake, on the 29th of June 2017. Subsequently, the current Hon'ble President Shri Ram Nath Kovind paid a visit to our heritage campus at Rajabazar and delivered the closing ceremony address on November 29th 2017. On behalf of all members of Bose Institute I would like to express my gratitude to the Department of Science and Technology, Govt. Of India, for financially supporting not only our regular research activities but also the construction of the Unified Academic Campus. I believe that with the creation of the campus, interdisciplinary research activities at Bose Institute will receive a major boost as all the departments and centres will now find a place under the same roof. I acknowledge the contribution made by the implementing agencies, their engineers and architects, and last but not the least, the workers who toiled day and night to create this beautiful building. I am also grateful to the various agencies of the Govt of West Bengal, which includes the Nabadiganta Industrial Township Authority (NDITA), the State Electricity Distribution Company limited (WBSEDCL) and the Fire and Emergency services department, for their cooperation at various stages during the construction of the building. Bose Institute celebrated the 100th year of its existence last year. A series of conferences, lectures workshops were held which were attended by eminent scientists and personalities from all over the globe. I congratulate all staff members of Bose Institute and of course our dear students, for their tireless efforts towards ensuring the success of the celebration. The events organized were not merely aimed at celebrating the achievements of the past, but also to prepare a road map for the future. Of the many symposia organized, two – namely, 'The History of Science' and the 'Future of Science' were hugely popular. So was the one organized by the Bose Institute Alumni Association, on the seminal contribution made in various areas of research and teaching by the alumni of this Institute. During the centenary year we had the opportunity to upgrade our facilities through the purchase of several sophisticated equipment such as mass spectrometers, Next Generation Sequencer (NGS) and protein purification systems. The centenary year saw several new collaborative programs emerging which includes SyMeC (Systems Medicine Cluster), with the National Institute of Biomedical ANNUAL REPORT 2017-18 Genomics (NIBMG), and the Indo-UK collaboration program on freshwater management. Needless to say, the Institute continues to contribute significantly to the generation of scientific knowledge as will be evident from the details given in the pages that follow. We are very proud of the fact that Bose Institute has been able to not only retain its multidisciplinary character, but also promote it by consistently publishing in internationally acclaimed journals in diverse areas in the domains of both life science as well as physical sciences. Despite our outstanding performance in the past, there is scope for improvement. In recent years there has been a steady decline in the faculty strength, due to superannuation of many of our senior members. Currently the faculty strength has hit an all time low, which would go down further in the coming years if not months. The need of the hour is to recruit young and dynamic faculty members, particularly those who are conversant with new and emerging technologies. At the same time the research infrastructure will have to be upgraded further, in order to remain competitive at the national as well as international levels. The Institute will have to plan for new projects, keeping in mind the national priorities as well as the vision of our founder. The administrative infrastructure has to be immediately revamped through the implementation of e- governance as well as paperless transaction procedures. Such ventures would require not only increased funding, but additionally determination and resolve on the part of all members of Bose Institute. We have to keep in mind that the mission of our Institute is not to just perform scientific research at the highest level but also ensure that the knowledge accrued is disseminated among the general public, particularly the student community. In this area we are fortunate that our Institute has already created a niche through the introduction of several programs such as the North East Students Summer Training on Basic Sciences (NESST BASE). The Scheduled Tribe Specific Rural Biotechnology Program is another such program that has gained substantial recognition and popularity over the years. Last but not the least, one has to mention the success of J.C. Bose Centre, which houses a collection of the instruments used by Acharya J.C. Bose for his research. The centre has become extremely popular among school students and teachers who make frequent visits to learn about the life and works of our founder. It is our duty to ensure that these programs are not only sustained but are also regularly upgraded and expanded. The challenges that exist are manifold. It is up- to the younger generation of faculty members to rise to the occasion and meet these challenges. This being the 101st year of our existence, it is important that we plan ahead and with due diligence, so that years down the lane we can look back on these days with a sense of pride and satisfaction. Prof. Sujoy Kr. Das Gupta Director (Officiating) Bose Institute, Kolkata BOSE INSTITUTE BOSE INSTITUTE Established : 30th November, 1917 Introduction ose Institute was founded by BA c h a r y a Jagadis Chandra Bose in 1917 for the advancement of science and dissemination of knowledge. In his foundation day speech the Acharya declared that “I dedicate today this Institute – not merely a laboratory but a temple”. Thus, our Institute is also known as the Vigyan Mandir or Temple of Science. The vision that our founder had while establishing this Institute is amply clear from the lines that he spoke while founding this Institute: “Thus the lines of physics, of physiology and psychology converge and meet. And here will assemble those who seek oneness amidst the manifold”. All research programs therefore have interdisciplinary components and collaborations are encouraged. Last year the Institute celebrated 100 years of its existence by holding seminars, discussions and other programs. As a part of the centenary celebration, the Unified Academic Campus was inaugurated by the then Hon'ble President of India, Shri Pranab Mukherjee, on July 29th, 2017. The foundation day celebration concluded with the current Hon'ble President of India Shri Ram Nath Kovind delivering the closing ceremony address at the historic auditorium of the Institute located in our main campus at Rajabazar. In the beginning, there were only three major departments: Physics, Chemistry and Botany. All the three continue to exist, but with the passage of time many new departments, divisions and centers have evolved. The pursuit of science is a dynamic process and therefore as and when new disciplines emerged changes had to be made in the departmental structure. At present we have four departments: Physics, Chemistry, Microbiology and Biophysics. In addition, there are two divisions: Plant Biology and Molecular Medicine.

  • IJP a Status of Weak-Scale Supersymmetry 1
    Indian J. Phys. 72A (6), 479-494 (1998) IJP A — an international journal Status of weak-scale supersymmetry1 Probir Roy Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. Homi Bhabha Road. Colaba, Mumbai-400 005 V Abstract : This article includes discussions on : (i) Standard Model and motivation for supersymmetry, (ii) Supersymmetry and MSSM. (tii) CMSSM and the mass spectra of sparticles, (iv) Experimental constraints on CMSSM parameters and (v) Conclusions Keywords : Supersymmetry, Higgs, CMSSM FACS Nos. ; 14 80 Ly, 14 80 Gt 1. Standard Model and motivation for supersymmetry Supersymmetry, as a generalized spacetime invariance under which fermions and bosons Hailstorm into each other, is undoubtedly a beautiful idea. But why should particle physicists look for it—especially at or slightly above the weak scale? The answer is that solily broken supersymmetry with an intra-supermultiplet mass breaking < 0 (TeV) can ujic the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics of a serious theoretical deficiency, viz. the ladiative instability of the Higgs mass. Before I elaborate on the last point, let me first briefly review the impressive experimental successes 11] that SM has had—if only to underscore the absence of any phenomenological need at present to go beyond it. Table 1 below contains a "pull-plot”. Various measurables (on the Z-peak) of the standard electroweak theory have been listed in ihe first column. The second column contains the measured values (combining SLD and I-hP numbers) with la errors. The "pull", defined as the deviation (with sign) of the central ^iluc from the theoretical prediction divided by the laerror in the measurement, is given in the third column.

  • Bengal 1876-1947: Asutosh Mookerjee and Mathematics*
    Indian Journal of History of Science, 47.2 (2012) 305-310 SCIENCE AND NATIONALISM IN BENGAL 1876-1947: ASUTOSH MOOKERJEE AND MATHEMATICS* Chittabrata Palit** The current title is a part of the larger project, ‘Science and Nationalism in Bengal 1876-1947’ and this is the sixth of the series. Asutosh Mookerjee is a celebrity in his own right in the field of education, but his contribution to mathematics has been more specific like his contributions to conic geometry. It is well known that he was a versatile scholar in Bengali, Sanskrit, Mathematics and law. This work was contemplated to highlight his excellence in mathematics. This has been put in the nationalist perspective under colonialism as the colonial government did not encourage higher studies in sciences. The lurking fear of the government was that in a country of natural abundance like India, it would lead to her economic development and possibility of an industrial revolution here. This would challenge the supremacy of Manchester and Sheffield. So, rudimentary science and technology were allowed in the Indian universities to man the colonial scientific establishment. Naturally, the highly talented graduates of science felt deprived of achieving excellence in science. Asutosh was born in the colonial milieu. He was a child prodigy. He solved all the theorems of Euclid before he completed his school studies. In the years in Presidency College, he went on to study Laplace in the original in Latin and French. He also studied continental mathematicians in his field and showed alternative ways of solving problems of conics. He was a frequent contributor to the Journal of Asiatic Society of Bengal where he published a dozen learned papers.

  • The Arts of Science in the Contact Zone: a Satirical Picture
    Sria Chatterjee The Arts of Science in the Contact Zone: A Satirical Picture Abstract This chapter focusses on a print by the artist Gaganendranath Tagore done in 1922, which features the biophysicist Jagadish Chandra Bose and his experiments in plant science. Considering the overlapping networks of art, science, and nationalist politics within a particular sphere in early twentieth-century British India, the chapter explores the connec- tions between human and non-human contact zones as well as questions around religion and science and the politics of colonial knowledge be- tween the metropole and the colony. Keywords Art and Science, Expanded Contact Zone, Plants, Caricature, Nationalism, Politics Chatterjee, Sria. 2021. “The Arts of Science in the Contact Zone: A Satirical Picture.” 181 In Reading Objects in the Contact Zone, edited by Eva-Maria Troelenberg, Kerstin Schankweiler, and Anna Sophia Messner, 181–187. Heidelberg Studies on Transculturality 9. Heidelberg: Heidelberg University Publishing. DOI: https://doi.org/110.17885/heiup.766. c10423 SRIA ChatteRJEE The object I focus on in this short essay is a black and white print by Gaganendranath Tagore (1867–1938) from a portfolio of “satirical pic- tures” published in 1921 by Thacker and Spink titled Reform Screams. While the portfolio serves to establish a context of political feeling and social reform in pre-independence India through satire, the print I have chosen allows for access into a contact zone that is not only geo- graphic but also one that lies between human and non-human worlds (à⏵Expanded Contact Zone). In this image, Gaganendranath depicts the Indian scientist Jagadish Chandra Bose (1858–1937) who pioneered the investigation of radio waves and experiments in plant science.
