        AIB (All India Bakchod)                           -AACHAL BURANDE All India Bakchod usually abbreviated and referred to as AIB is an Indian comedy group. The group was initially founded by Gursimran Khamba and Tanmay Bhat and was later joined by Rohan Joshi and Ashish Shakya. All four members are equal owners of the group. The group maintains a YouTube channel  that shows their comedy sketches and parodies on topics such as politics, society, and the Hindi film industry, and much of their reputation was founded on their online presence. Initially, the group produced podcasts, before using YouTube in 2013 as a medium to share their comedic work. Joshi had noted that the reason for their use of YouTube was that they simply did not have funds for advertisements and other promotional materials, and instead relied upon social media to promote their work. As of March 2015...

      Jacques Dobochet                                   -AACHAL BURANDE               The 2017 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Jacques Dubochet, Joachim Frank & Richard Henderson for developing cryo-electron (Cryo-EM) microscopy for the high-resolution structure determination of biomolecules in solution.            The work essentially deals with capturing extremely high-resolution images of a biomolecules. One of the applications of the three technology will be in medicine in health. In awarding the three the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said that th The Cryo-EM method makes it possible to portray biomolecules in a 3D form after freezing them very fast. The method does so in a way that the biomolecules are preserved in their natural shape. The three's work...

      Joachim Frank                                                           -AACHAL BURANDE Joachim Frank (born 12 September 1940) is a German-born American biophysicist at Columbia University, New York City and a Nobel laureate. He is regarded as the founder of single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) , for which he shared the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2017 with Jacques Dubochet and Richard Henderson.He also made significant contributions to structure and function of the ribosome from bacteria and eukaryot In 1975 Frank was offered a position of Senior Research Scientist in the Division of Laboratories and Research (now Wadsworth Center), New York State Department of Health , where he started working on single-particle approaches in electron microscopy. In 1985 he was appointed Associate and then (1...

       RAINER WEISS                                                                          -AACHAL BURANDE The 2017 Nobel Physics Prize was divided, one half awarded to Rainer Weiss, the other half jointly to Barry C. Barish and Kip S. Thorne “for decisive contributions to the LIGO detector and the observation of gravitational waves”. Ripples in the fabric of space-time, first predicted a century ago by Albert Einstein, sparked a revolution in astrophysics when their first detection was announced in early 2016. The teams involved in the discovery quickly emerged as favourites for the prize. “This is something completely new and different, opening up unseen worlds,” the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said in a statement announcing the winners of the 9 million Swedi...

          Barry Barish                                         -AACHAL BURANDE                Barry Clark Barish (born January 27, 1936) is an American experimental physicist and Nobel Laureate. He is a Linde Professor of Physics, emeritus at California Institute of Technology. He is a leading expert on gravitational waves.                In 2017, Barish was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics along with Rainer Weiss and Kip Thorne "for decisive contributions to the LIGO detector and the observation of gravitational waves"             First Barish's experiments were performed at Fermilab using high-energy neutrino collisions to reveal the quark substructure of the nucleon. These experiments were among the first to observe the weak neutral cu...

      Kip s throne                                                      -AACHAL BURANDE   The American theoretical physicist Kip Stephen Thorn is very well-known for his many contributions to the study of astrophysics and gravitational physics. He is also well-known for having a hand in training a new generation of scientists. Kip S. Thorne was the Feynman Professor who taught Theoretical Physics at Caltech (California Institute of Technology) until the year 2009 and he is considered one of the foremost authorities on Einstein’s theory of relativity. As if all that isn’t impressive enough, he is also a close friend and a colleague of Carl Sagan and the Much of Thorne’s research has been focused on gravitation physics and relativistic astrophysics in general and he placed special focus on gravity, space, and time.
