ABSTRACT
Dr Sudhakar Sankar Bhide in Plasma Physics and Dr.K.L.Narayana in Theoretical Physics were very close and resided in the same locality of Granitwagen at Uppsala, Sweden during the years 1964-1965. They shared many memories of the International Seminar for Research and Education (1964-1965) participation with vigour and enthusiasm of academic Activities at FYSIKUM, University of Uppsala, Sweden. Dr KVNRao,of Bedford(Mass),USA on a suggestion by late Prof K Rangadhama Rao D Sc(Madras D.Sc.(London) met Dr K L Narayana in Uppsala when he visited the Plasma Physics labs of FYSIKUM. Both Bhide and Dr K L Narayana enjoyed the Day of the New Year 1965, the fall of snow & snow ball games in 1964-1965 winter and also the Uppsala city festival were witnessed at Uppsala, Sweden. Later Prof Dr. K.L.Narayana from Kolhapur in Maharashtra at Shivaji University and Mr S. S. Bhide at SAMEER, Powai, Mumbai shared many years of friendship 1966 to-date. Mr. Bhide and his wife visited Visakhapatnam when they have been entertained by late Mrs.Pancha Kalyani Amarnath and his sisters Dr Lalitha Kumari MD(India) MD (USA). Dr Rama Leela of Florida Hollywood USA during her family visits to India, Bangalore and Hyderabad had an occasion also to meet Bhide family and their daughter at their house in Chunabhatti.

EDUCATION:
Mr S S Bhide date of birth is 1st August 1939. Place of birth is Sangli, Maharashtra. He did his M.Sc. Physics 1961, from Pune University. He was with Training school 1961-1962, next AEE Trombay, and was at International Seminar in Education and Research for a year in 1964-65.* His extremely considerate wife studied Philosophy and is a post graduate. They have a daughter and a son-in-law as a close knit family.
TIFR
He was appointed in TIFR for Plasma Physics during 1962-1966, Solid State Electronics during 1966-1968, Ultrasonic & Microwave Engineering in 1968-1970, MW Vacuum Tube Technology Klystrons in 1970-1977, and Linear Accelerators for industrial radiography and cancer therapy in 1978.
SAMEER
In 1987 he has been shifted to SAMEER with MW group and till retirement in 1999 was with MW Tubes Division and Head of Medical Electronics Division. Expertise he gained in Basic Design and Systems Engineering, 30MEV Electron and X-ray LINAC. Also designed and constructed ultrasonic machine tools. He knows the CAD analysis of EM, other analogue potential and force fields. He designed and Engineered High Power Microwave Tubes and even to-date, helping many a firms as a consultant on Futuristic Planning.
MY POTENTIAL CONTRIBUTION:
(Shri S S Bhide)
I worked on all systems for indigenous development of technology for making our LINACs in TIFR and SAMEER. Two medical and two NDT LINACs were made during my tenor of service up to 1999. I continued to train new scientists and engineers. Today ten indigenous LINAC machines have been made (Feb 2006). The GOI has decided to establish a factory of indigenous LINAC tubes in Mumbai. LINAC machines is a high tech labour intensive job which are of strategic importance to India and are of social and economic relevance in the world. Pundit Nehru have lamented in “the Discovery of India” that India remained static, while Europe went head in Technology. i.e. LINAC machines take firm roots in India. The small contribution should my selection as a Scientist worthy and justified to the nation. I hope in near future LINAC activity will create high tech manpower job opportunities on an increasing scale and India will export high-tech LINAC item to UK, Europe and America.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT:
Mr S S Bhide is ever greatful to all his colleagues in TIFR, and SAMEER organizations and to all his beloved relatives and more so to friends in Mumbai and other parts of Maharashtra State. Prof Dr K.L.Narayana is very much grateful to Mrs Bhide and their charming daughter Sow. Sarika and their Son in Law, a neutrino scientist for their help and generosity for bearing with these two bosom friends.
• Dr Bhide later joined the SAMEER from TIFR and Dr. K. L. Narayana became a Lecturer (till 1973), a Reader (till 1983) and a Professor of Physics at Shivaji University and during his stay in Kolhapur (1966 June 1st to 2000 July 31st) and shared together life in Maharashtra state with Bhide.
• The Editor, Prof Dr K L Narayana has started this web blog on the April 12th, 2000 which is now entitled trusciencetrutechnology@blogspot.com, with Google Blog Dashboard post. Earlier it was with MSN as TRU. It caters to the needs of promoting articles relevant to all-embracing Science & Technology.
