Raman Effect

In this article we will learn everything about the life of Chandrasekhar Venkat (CV) Raman, Raman Effect on Raman Spectroscopy and Raman Scattering in detail. Useful for graduate and undergraduate students. Sir Chandrasekhar Venkat Raman,

Meet A1689B11 : The oldest spiral galaxy ever discovered

In a collaborative attempt, astrophysicists from different institutions have found success in discovery of A1689B11 – a spiral galaxy that’s said to be the oldest discovered. The research reports an integral-field spectroscopic (IFS) observation of this

Symmetry in Physical Laws

‘Symmetry’ has a special meaning in physics. A picture is said to be symmetrical if one side is somehow the same as the other side. Precisely, a thing is symmetrical if one can subject it

Macrostates and Microstates and their relations with Thermodynamic Probability

In this article we will define what are Macrostates and Microstates in Statistical Physics with examples and illustrations. Consider some (4, say) distinguishable particles. If we wish to distribute them into two exactly similar compartments

Tunnel through the Earth

What if we make a tunnel through the earth and drop a ball or any other body into it? How would the gravity behave on the ball, and , will the ball pop-up on the

Statistical Physics: Ensembles

Ensembles As a system is defined by the collection of a large number of particles, so the “ensembles” can be defined as a collection of a number macroscopically identical but essentially independent systems. Here the

Nanostory of Nanotechnology

This is a small story of Nanotechnology, one of the most advanced and trending topics in physics. Nanotechnology has become a widely discussed topic today in newspapers, magazines, journals, blogs and even in television ads. It’s

Fox-Rabbit Chase Problem [Solution & Math Proof]

Part I: A fox chases a rabbit. Both run at the same speed $v$ . At all times, the fox runs directly toward the instantaneous position of the rabbit , and the rabbit runs
