Who is Satyendra Nath Bose? , Indian Physicist Satyendra Bose
Satyendra Nath Bose was one of the world’s pioneering theoretical, widely called the ‘Father of the God Particle’ for his work on the Boson, a class of particles named after him because they obey Bose–Einstein statistics. His work on quantum mechanics in the early 1920s laid the foundation for Bose–Einstein statistics and the theory of the Bose–Einstein condensate.
Early life
Satyendra Nath Bose was born in Calcutta. Bose was an alumnus of the Presidency College, where he studied an intermediate science course with Jagadish Chandra Bose and Prafulla Chandra Ray who also went on to become renowned scientists in their own rights. He was awarded with Bachelor of Science in mixed mathematics in 1913 from Presidency College and got a Master of Science in 1915 from Calcutta University.
Research
In 1924, while working in Dhaka, he wrote a paper deriving Planck’s quantum radiation law without any reference to classical physics. He did this by counting states with identical particles and his paper in a way gave birth to the field of quantum statistics.
But the paper was not accepted for publication. However, Albert Einstein, to whom Bose had sent a copy, translated the paper into German and submitted it on Bose’s behalf to the prestigious Zeitschrift für Physik. He later went on to work for a considerable amount of time in European X-ray and crystallography laboratories as a recognition of his paper. This was when he got to work with Einstein as well as Louis de Broglie and Marie Curie.
Legacy
Bose was honoured with Padma Vibhusan in 1954, the second-highest civilian award in India. In 1959 he was appointed National Professor, the highest honour in the country for a scholar.
