When Einstein rescued Satyendra Nath Bose's rejected paper, changing quantum physics

India Today  

On a typical day in 1924, Satyendra Nath Bose, a physicist from Kolkata, faced a disappointing setback. On the death anniversary of Satyendra Nath Bose, we look back at the life of this humble scientist who never won a Nobel but changed the field of physics forever. Satyendra Nath Bose's work laid the foundation for these discoveries, even though he never worked directly on the Higgs mechanism. THE ROYAL SOCIETY’S 'FORGOTTEN' HONOUR Satyendra Nath Bose’s brilliance was recognised in many ways, even if not by the Nobel Committee. BOSE AND THE SIMPLICITY OF SCIENCE Unlike many theoretical physicists, Satyendra Nath Bose had an intuitive, almost poetic approach to science.

The Hindu  

Higgs Boson Particle January 1 was the birth anniversary of the physicist Satyendra Nath Bose. “It has been found, hasn’t it?” The episode is vaguely reminiscent of Ralph Kronig’s experience when he proposed the idea of electron spin to Wolfgang Pauli, one of his academic advisors, in 1925. But given the number of brilliant men in the fray here who …

The Hindu  

With yesterday’s announcement of the latest findings in the search for the Higgs boson, the elusive particle is on everyone’s mind. This kind of fame is relatively rare, even for important scientific discoveries; but the Higgs boson has been called, or miscalled, the God particle, enabling it to pass into the realm of popular scientific lore, like the discovery of …

The Hindu  

When his meticulously researched paper sent for publication was returned by the Philosophical Magazine from London with not-so-flattering remarks, Satyendranath Bose did not lose heart. Albert Einstein's Nobel Prize-winning paper explained the photoelectric effect based on Planck's quanta as photons in 1905. Einstein himself translated Bose's paper into German and sent it to Zeitschrift für Physik with his endorsement for …
