Physics Academy of North-East (PANE) arranged its Foundation Day Lecture at 2 P.M. on 6th April, 2012 in the Department of Physics of Gauhati University. The talk was delivered by Prof. Probodh Shukla of the Department of Physics of North-Eastern Hill University (NEHU), Shillong on the topic ‘Non-equilibrium Phenomena in Complex System: Paradigm of Hysteresis in Random Fields’.
The talk was attended by large cross-sections of PANE Life members and a lot of Invited dignitaries all around the North-East, Faculty members of different Institutions, Research Scholars, students and various well-wishers of PANE in a jam-packed Hall..
In his talk, Prof. Shukla illustrated the results of his extensive studies of the problem of hysteresis in complex systems and associated phenomena like Barkhausen noise, avalanches, critical points, return-point memory, and wasp-waisted hysteresis loops in magnetic rock samples. Keeping in mind a general, non-specialist audience, the talk was presented in a lucid and skilled way. There was a good interaction after the talk between Prof. Shukla and the exuberant audience.
Before his talk, Prof. P. Shukla released two books, one on ‘Relativity’ and the other on ‘Quantum Mechanics’, written by Prof. K.D.Krori, the distinguished Physicist on that Occasion.
Prof. K.D.Krori in his lecture told that these two books were written by him for helping an average student of Physics to delve deep comfortably into the mystery of Physics and to understand Physics in an enjoyable and better way. He appreciated the magnificent role played by PANE for its various activities including the dissemination of Physics Education and for providing fantastic platform to young research-scholars to showcase their talent in a splendid way.
Earlier, Prof. N. Nimai Singh, Secretary of PANE and HOD of Physics of Gauhati University welcomed the elite audience and greeted for their over-whelming response. The Programme for Foundation day Celebration was presided over by Prof. D. K. Choudhury, Executive President of PANE.
