81. The Quantum and the Continuum : Einstein's Dichotomous Legacies

Prof. Parthasarathi Majumdar (RKMVU, Belur)

15/10/2015, 14:40

This talk begins with a summary of some of Einstein’s seminal contributions in the quantum domain, like Brownian motion and the Light Quantum Hypothesis, as well as on the spacetime continuum enshrined in the theories of special and general relativity. Following up on Einstein’s rationale for postulating the Light Quantum Hypothesis, we attempt to point to a possible dichotomy in his thinking...

83. Detecting Supernova Neutrinos by Iron and Lead Detectors

Prof. Kamales Kar (RKMVU, Belur)

15/10/2015, 15:40

Supernova neutrinos can excite the nuclei of different detector materials beyond their neutron emission thresholds through the charged current and neutral current interactions. The emitted neutrons, if detected, can be a signal for the supernova event. In this talk we shall discuss some results for the lead and iron detectors using the realistic neutrino fluxes and energies given by...
