Construction Activity 247 1 About The Institute History: The Harish-Chandra Research Institute is one of the premier research in- stitutes in the country. It is an autonomous institution fully funded by the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Government of India. The Institute was founded as the Mehta Research Institute of Mathematics and Mathematical Physics (MRI). On 10th Oct 2000 the Institute was renamed as Harish-Chandra Research Institute (HRI) after the acclaimed mathematician, the late Prof Harish-Chandra. MRI started with the efforts of Dr. B. N. Prasad, a mathematician at the University of Allahabad, with initial support from the B. S. Mehta Trust, Kolkata. Dr. Prasad was succeeded in January 1966 by Dr. S. R. Sinha, also of Allahabad University. He was followed by Prof. P. L. Bhatnagar as the first formal Director. After an interim period, in January 1983 Prof. S. S. Shrikhande joined as the next Director of the Institute. During his tenure the dialogue with the DAE entered into decisive stage and a review committee was constituted by the DAE to examine the Institute’s future. -
January 2013
January1 of 91. 2013 International affairs: US President Barack Obama on 31 January, has come out with his much-awaited comprehensive immigration reforms, that will pave the way for legalization of more than 11 million undocumented immigrants. The reforms, which also propose to eliminate the annual country caps in the employment category, are expected to benefit large number of Indian technocrats and professionals. In a major policy speech on comprehensive immigration in Las Vegas, Obama urged the Congress to act on his proposals. The other key proposals of his "comprehensive" reform plan include "stapling" a green card to the diplomas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), PhD and Masters Degree graduates from qualified US universities who have found employment in the country. The President also proposed to create a startup visa for job-creating entrepreneurs. The proposal allows foreign entrepreneurs, who attract financing or revenue from American investors and customers, to start and grow their businesses in the US, and to remain permanently if their companies grow further, create jobs for American workers, and strengthen the economy. The proposal removes the backlog for employment-sponsored immigration by eliminating annual country caps and adding additional visas to the system. Outdated legal immigration programs are reformed to meet current and future demands by exempting certain categories from annual visa limitations, the White House said. Obama also proposed to eliminate existing backlogs in the family-sponsored immigration system by recapturing unused visas and temporarily increasing annual visa numbers. The proposal also raises existing annual country caps from seven per cent to 15 per cent for the family-sponsored immigration system. -

Studies of Supersymmetry Models for the ATLAS Experiment at the Large Hadron Collider
Studies of supersymmetry models for the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider Alan James Barr Churchill College A dissertation submitted to the University of Cambridge for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2002 ii Studies of supersymmetry models for the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider Alan James Barr Abstract This thesis demonstrates that supersymmetry can be discovered with the ATLAS experiment even if nature conspires to choose one of two rather difficult cases. In the first case where baryon-number is weakly violated, the lightest supersym- metric particle decays into three quarks. This leads to events with a very large multiplicity of jets which presents a difficult combinatorical problem at a hadronic collider. The distinctive property of the second class of model { anomaly-mediation { is the near degeneracy of the super-partners of the SU(2) weak bosons. The heavier charged wino decays producing its invisible neutral partner, the presence of which must be inferred from the apparent non-conservation of transverse momen- tum, as well as secondary particle(s) with low transverse momentum which must be extracted from a large background. Monte-Carlo simulations are employed to show that for the models examined not only can the distinctive signature of the model can be extracted, but that a variety of measurements (such as of sparticle masses) can also be made. The final two chapters present an investigation into part of the experimental hard- ware which will be vital for these analyses. Beam tests of ATLAS semiconductor tracker modules demonstrate that this sub-detector can be expected to perform to its specification, providing the good spatial resolution and efficiency with low noise, even after the equivalent of ten years of irradiation. -

Bengaluru 562 123. Dedicated to the people of India Foreword It is with pride and satisfaction that I write this foreword to the book on the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISERs). The idea of having a national institution or a uni- versity dedicated to science was not completely new. Some years ago, in the National Committee for Science and Technology chaired by Shri C. Subramaniam, I had brought up the idea of establishing such institutions for science which would be equivalent to the IITs in engineering. For some reason, it could not happen. I kept repeating this in many places, and the idea was even included in a Planning Commission document during 1989–90. It took the right set of people and circumstances eventually to make this happen. When I was the Chairman of the Science Advisory Council to the Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh, I described the idea of IISERs to the Prime Minister. He thought that it was a very good idea and gladly endorsed establishing them. When I talked to the Education Minister, Shri Arjun Singh, he expressed complete support.
