JU Physics Bonanza

On the occasion of the golden jubilee year of Jadavpur University, the Nuclear And Particle Physics Research Centre, Department of Physics, JU organised a Students Programme on 'Physics 2005 And Beyond - Few Glimpses', to jointly celebrate the International Year of Physics and centenary of the 'Miraculous Year'(1905) when Albert Einstein wrote his path-breaking articles which helped formulating the bases of the Theory of Relativity, the Quantum Theory and the Theory of Brownian Motion.

As a part of the event, an International Conference on 'Contemporary Issues in Nuclear and Particle Physics'(CINPP-05) was organised by JU. A special programme for motivating UG and PG students of the colleges and the universities in and around Kolkata, was held on at the Dr. K.P. Basu Memorial Hall, Raja S.C. Mullick Road Campus, JU. This programme offered a unique opportunity to the youngsters to enjoy the excitement of probing challenging Physics problems with distinguished physicists from all the world over.

Later an exhibition-cum-demonstration of 'Radioisotopes and Radiation Technology:Application for Human Welfare' was organised by the Board of Radiation & Isotope Technology, DAE, Govt. of India at the University.
