During the period April 2019 - March 2020, there were 144 students pursuing their PhD and 42 scholars pursuing their post-doctoral programme at IMSc. Spread through this period, the Institute organized or co-sponsored several workshops and conferences. The First IMSc discussion meeting on extreme QCD matter held during September 16 - 21, 2019 brought together senior scientists to deliver a set of pedagogic lectures on the current state-of-the-art, open problems and challenges in the area of hot and dense QCD matter. The annual meeting of the International Pulsar Timing Array (IPTA) was organized during June 10 - 21, 2019 by its Indian arm, of which IMSc is a part. An NCM sponsored workshop on Combinatorial Models for Representation Theory was organised in IMSc during November 4 - 16, 2019 and saw active participation from Ph.D students and postdocs from across the country. An ACM-India Summer School on Graphs and Graph Algorithms and a meeting on Recent Trends in Algorithms were both organised during the year.

Ghosh: [email protected] Dr. Amitabh Joshi: [email protected] Abstract Canalization denotes the robustness of a trait against genetic or environmental perturbation. Plasticity, in contrast indicates the environmental sensitivity of a trait. Stabilizing selection is thought to increase canalization of a trait, whereas directional selection is often thought to lead to decanalization. However, the relationship between selection, canalization and plasticity remains largely unclear. Experimental evolution is a powerful approach for addressing fundamental questions in evolution. Here, we ask whether long-term directional selection for reduced pre-adult development time in Drosophila melanogaster results in the evolution of increased canalization for development time, the trait under primary selection.

    Limiting Value of the Kolkata Index for Social Inequality and a Possible Social Constant Asim Ghosh1, ∗ and Bikas K Chakrabarti2, 3, 4, † 1Raghunathpur College, Raghunathpur, Purulia 723133, India. 2Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, Kolkata 700064, India. 3Economic Research Unit, Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata 700108, India. 4S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, Kolkata 700106, India Based on some analytic structural properties of the Gini and Kolkata indices for social inequality, as obtained from a generic form of the Lorenz function, we make a conjecture that the limiting (effective saturation) value of the above-mentioned indices is about 0.865. This, together with some more new observations on the citation statistics of individual authors (including Nobel laureates), suggests that about 14% of people or papers or social conflicts tend to earn or attract or cause about 86% of wealth or citations or deaths respectively in very competitive situations in markets, universities or wars. This is a modified form of the (more than a) century old 80 − 20 law of Pareto in economy (not visible today because of various welfare and other strategies) and gives an universal value (0.86) of social (inequality) constant or number. I. INTRODUCTION Unlike the universal constants in physical sciences, like the Gravitational Constant of Newton’s Gravity law, Boltzmann Constant of thermodynamics or Planck’s Constant of Quantum Mechanics, there is no established universal constant yet in social sciences. There have of course been suggestion of several possible candidates. Stanley Milgram’s experiment [1] to determine the social ‘contact-distance’ between any two per- sons of the society, by trying to deliver letters from and to random people through personal chains of friends or acquaintances, suggested ‘Six Degrees of Separation’.

  • Annual Report 2004 - 2005
    RAMAN RESEARCH INSTITUTE Bangalore Annual Report 2004 - 2005 INTRODUCTION The Raman Research Institute founded by Prof. C.V. Raman in the late forties was reorganised, after his death in 1970, as a national Institute for research in basic science, and it has been receiving grants from the Department of Science and Technology of the Government of India since 1972. The main fields of research have been, and continue to be, Theoretical Physics (gravitation and polarization optics), Liquid Crystals (thermotropic and polymeric), Astronomy & Astrophysics (radioastronomy, interstellar medium, and pulsars). More recently, research in high-energy astrophysics (X-rays and γ-rays) and cosmology has been initiated. Also, the Liquid Crystals research has been expanded so as to include soft-condensed matter and biological physics (studies on membranes and single-DNA segments). Also, an Optics Lab has been set up for studying laser cooling and trapping of atoms, imaging through turbid media, and ultra-fast atomic processes using femtosecond (10-15 s) laser pulses. 1. Theoretical Physics Here research is focussed on two main areas − gravitation and polarization optics. Gravitation is known to be the weakest of all known forces of nature, but it dominates all structure and motion on the astronomical scale because of its attractive universality (everything gravitates everything else), its long range, and the fact that matter on the large scale is essentially neutral. The correct theory of gravitation is now believed to be Einstein's General Theory of Relativity (GTR). One of the fundamental predictions of GTR is that of gravitational waves − waves of distortion of spacetime itself − propagating at a finite speed (of light).

    In the forthcoming issue 177Lu-EDTMP: a new radiopharmaceutical for palliation of bone pain in cancer patients with skeletal metastases Conventional treatment methods for alleviating bone pain and other symptoms in cancer patients, involve multiple side effects. Radionuclide therapy, employing radiopharmaceuticals labeled with radionuclides and which emit β-/conversion electrons is an effective alternative. The Radiopharmaceuticals Division, has developed a new radiopharmaceutical 177Lu EDTMP, for bone pain palliation. It is particularly useful in the Indian context as it is cost effective, can be prepared in moderate flux reactors and has a comparative longer half-life, for transportation to distant locales. The production of 177Lu, the synthesis and characterization of its carrier legend EDTMP, the preparation of the final product and its quality control parameters have been detailed in this article. After preliminary studies on animals, pre-clinical trials on human patients were also successfully carried out.

    DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS IN-HOUSE SYMPOSIUM 2008 INDIAN INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE BANGALORE 560012 (NOVEMBER 24-25, 2008) FORWARD As a periodic review of its activities, The Department of Physics has been organizing In-House Symposium on annual basis during recent years. This one-day symposium usually consists of oral presentations by selected faculty members and students, and poster presentations by all those who would like to present their recent results. This year we have 10 talks by faculty, 2 by post-doctoral fellows, 17 by the senior students and as many as 28 posters by the rest. I hope this package would be as reasonable representation of the ongoing research activities in the department. This event is also particularly useful to freshers to familiarize themselves with the current research activity in our Department in various branches of Physics. I would like to thank Drs. Prabal Maiti, Arindam Ghosh and Banibrata Mukhopadhyay of our Department who have shouldered the responsibility to organize this In-House Symposium.
