Meri Maati Mera Desh Campaign held at JNCASR on 16th August 2023

"Meri Maati Mera Desh" envisions a unified celebration of India's soil and valour, commemorating the nation's journey of freedom and progress. By connecting with the land and honouring our heroes, the campaign fosters a deep sense of patriotism.

As part of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav (AKAM) initiative, the ‘Meri Maati Mera Desh’ campaign was organized at JNCASR on 16th August 2023.

Activities conducted as part of the campaign:

A large number of faculty members, students, staff, and children actively participated in the campaign.

World Blood Donor Day - 14th June 2023

On the occasion of World Blood Donor Day on 14th June 2023, a blood donation camp was organized by JNCASR to create awareness among the community under the “Raktdaan Amrit Mahotsav” campaign.

The theme of the campaign, “Give blood, give plasma, share life, share often”, emphasized the importance of regular blood donation. The event was conducted in collaboration with the Sankalp India Foundation.

Around 70 members of the JNCASR community, including students, professors, and staff members, voluntarily participated in the drive. During the camp, a pledge for blood donation was administered in both English and Hindi to reinforce the significance of regular blood donation.

Title: “Material Training: Success, Failure, and Improvement through geometrical constraints”

Title:

Training materials through periodic drive allows endowing materials to explore the high dimensional space of structures to exhibit desired elastic functions. However, increasing the complexity of the desired response results in ultra-slow convergence of training error and a transition occurs from trainable phase to untrainable phase. Approaching the critical threshold of complexity, low-frequency modes of vibrational properties proliferate and creep down to zero frequency implying that training causes material degradation. We show that the excess low-frequency spectrum is due to atypical local structures. We also show that by imposing geometrical constraints on material structure the degradation can be avoidable, and training can be improved in termsof convergence, capacity, and robustness of training.

Title: Quantum Matter and the Age of Entanglement Speaker: Dr. Siddhartha Lal Affiliation: Associate Professor, Department of Physical Sciences, IISER Kolkata

Venue: Kanada Auditorium

Time: 2:30PM

Coffee/Tea: 2:20PM

Abstract: There is great activity at present all over the world towards developing quantum technologies. But what is the basic physics that drives this activity? Why are we searching for novel quantum materials, and building noise-free quantum computers? Where does my research fit in with all of this? In presenting some answers, I will focus on how the concept of entanglement - a feature that is unique to the quantum world - of an interacting many-particle quantum system holds the key to next-generation quantum technologies. I will also offer some insights on results we have obtained recently on the entanglement encoded within a few different examples of strongly interacting quantum matter.
