X-ray polarimetry is a branch of high-energy astrophysics that studies the polarisation properties of X-ray radiation emitted by astrophysical sources. By measuring the orientation and degree of polarisation...
India is constructing a giant Neutrino Observatory (INO) in a 1,300 meters (4,300 ft) deep cave under Ino Peak near Theni, Tamil Nadu, India. The INO is a...
An Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) is a compact region at the centre of a galaxy that emits exceptionally large amounts of energy, often outshining the combined light of...
The Cosmic Dark Ages refers to a critical period in the history of the Universe that occurred after the emission of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation and...
Diamagnetic levitation is a physical phenomenon in which an object is suspended against gravity by exploiting the repulsive effects of diamagnetism. Diamagnetism arises in materials that generate an...
Glueballs are hypothetical subatomic particles composed entirely of gluons, the elementary force carriers responsible for the strong interaction in quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Unlike ordinary hadrons, which are made...
Phonon–polaritons are hybrid quasiparticles that arise from the strong coupling between optical phonons (quantised lattice vibrations) and photons (quanta of electromagnetic radiation) within a polar dielectric material. They...
Raman Spectroscopy is a powerful analytical technique used to study the vibrational, rotational, and other low-frequency modes of molecules. It is based on the inelastic scattering of monochromatic...
Magnetometers are scientific instruments used to measure the strength and direction of magnetic fields. They are essential tools in disciplines such as physics, geophysics, archaeology, navigation, and space...
The Carnot cycle is a theoretical thermodynamic cycle that defines the maximum possible efficiency any heat engine can achieve when converting heat energy into mechanical work between two...
Circular polarisation is a form of electromagnetic wave polarisation in which the electric field vector of the wave rotates in a circular motion as it propagates through space....
Cosmic Dawn refers to the epoch in the history of the Universe when the first stars, galaxies, and black holes formed, illuminating the cosmos after the long period...
