ABSTRACT
                      The first women astounding combat-trained force in India, initiated by Subhas Chandra Bose, documented by Historian Vera Hildebrand, of Rani of Jhansi regiment (RJR) formed in Singapore, who spent two years in jungles of Burma (Harper-Collins). Every Indian women should know about this regiment of brave women. More than 22 RJR veterans agreed for extensive interviews with Historian and many others were silent. 
                 Temperatures fell down, during the last three days, by two three degrees and Visakhapatnam airport registered 15C. Gentle Cool breeze blowing from the west on Friday 20 Jan morning. An earthquake of 3.0 magnitude was felt in New Delhi on Wednesday 18 Jan 2017, morning. The tremors were felt in the national capital at around 7:16 am. Meanwhile, tremors of 3.7 magnitude were also felt in Aizwal, Mizoram at the same time. In Italy, the first big quake struck at 10:25 (09:25 GMT) with a magnitude of around 5.3, followed at 11:14 with one of 5.4, followed some 11 minutes later by another of 5.3. All three were around 9km (5.6 miles) in depth, meaning they were dangerously close to the surface. The sizeable tremors, four magnitude fives in the space of four hours on Wednesday 18 Jan, appear to have triggered an avalanche that swept into the Rigopiano hotel. Thousands of South Australian properties remain without power after strong winds, heavy rain and lightning strikes lashed the state. SA Power Networks said 33,000 customers were without services at 5.30am on Friday. All these happenings in India at Delhi and Visakhapatnam, Italy and Australia seem to be interconnected at a global level. They were spread over three to four days during 18 to 20 January 2017. On Friday 20 Jan unique snowflakes showered on desert Sahara where temperature was 10 to 15 degrees colder than normal. An unusual strong area of low pressure passed over the region. As air flows from higher pressure to low pressure areas, the air rose rapidly and cooled, thus causing an incredible rare snowfall. Four people were killed and scores of homes were flattened early Saturday 21 Jan when a tornado hitting in the dark of night ripped through a city in southern Mississippi, Nokia camera found useful in Cancer imaging and research. A powerful 7.9R earthquake has struck, on 21 Jan, initial mentioned as 8R struck some 47 km west of Arawa on the north coast of Bougainville island at a depth of 154 km deep off Papua New Guinea, causing damage and blackouts but no tsunami hours after an alert for nearby islands. Monday 23 Jan 2017: The first sighting of clustered dwarf galaxies bolsters a leading theory about how big galaxies such as our Milky Way are formed, and how dark matter binds them. India's indigenous Light Combat Aircraft Tejas made its debut on 26 Jan 2017. Electrons in vanadium dioxide can conduct electricity without conducting heat.  Heavy rains in the past 24-hours till Saturday morning have intensified the cold wave in Lucknow and nearby areas of Uttar Pradesh. Rusa Mandal and Rahul Sinha, Phys.

TIME CRYSTALS: 7:00 AM, OCTOBER 26, 2016

                 Time crystals take an important unifying concept in physics, the idea of symmetry breaking, and extend it to time.  Scientists have created the first time crystal, using a chain of ions. Just as a standard crystal repeats in a regular spatial pattern, a time crystal repeats in time, returning to a similar configuration at regular intervals. Scientists at the University of Maryland and the University of California, Berkeley created a chain of 10 ytterbium ions. In 2012, theoretical physicist Frank Wilczek of MIT proposed that symmetry breaking in Time might produce time crystals (SN:3/24/12,p.8). Scientists found that the ions’ spins would return to their original orientation at that same rate even if they were not flipped perfectly halfway. This result indicates that the system of ions prefers to respond at a certain regular period, the hallmark of a time crystal, just as atoms in a crystal prefer a perfectly spaced lattice. Such time crystals are “one of the first examples of a new phase of matter”, says physicist Norman Yao of UC Berkeley, a co-author of the new result, posted online September 27 at arXiv.org.

NONDESCRIPT STAR        
                      The Jan 7 AAS was told by Calvin College Astronomers in Michigan that a nondescript star in the Cygnus constellation will likely become one of the brightest objects in the sky. KIC 9832227 is actually not one star. It’s two. One is about the third of the size of our Sun. The other is roughly 40 per cent bigger. They’re orbiting each other so close that their superheated atmospheres are actually touching each other. New observations reveal the stars are in an accelerating death spiral, constantly winding faster and closer. At the moment, that orbit is once every 11 hours. After collision a new star would be born.

STARS FLUCTUATING
        ‘Tabby’s Star’ KIC 8462852 exploded out of obscurity in October last year when an amateur group of astronomers noticed it was doing something extremely odd. It was flickering. Its brightness was changing by up to 22 per cent, a much greater degree than could be explained by any known possible cause. A separate look back at over a century of data also appeared to show it having dimmed by about 20 per cent in total.

          Over a period of 78.8 days, EPIC 204278916’s light fluctuated erratically by up to 65 per cent over 25 consecutive days. In the case of EPIC 204278916, its age could be something of a clue. Astronomers say it seems to be no older than 11 million years. And while it’s about the size of our own Sun, it probably holds only about half the mass.

January 16, 2017
         Today morning, Srinagar recorded a minimum temperature of -1.2°C and Qazi Gund recorded minimum temperature of -3.4°C. But when these freezing cold temperatures are set beside Japanese research base camp shows in Antarctica, it puts the freezing image of Antarctica to shame. Showa observed a minimum temperature of 0.9°C. Showa is located at the coastal parts of Antarctica but few places in interior Antarctica observed temperatures falling down to -37.4°C. The minimum temperature in Agra settled at 4.9°C which is three degrees below normal, Sultanpur 4°C (-3 degrees), and Hisar at 3.6°C (-3 degrees).

                               His calculations gave a graphic form to the signal that would be emitted by two strong merging black holes this is the wave form detected in 2015 by LIGO collaboration and contained so-called quasi normal modes, a ringdown stage that sound that is fading out. 

17 Jan 2017
                 Weather conditions in the plains of North India have been cold for quite some time now. Both minimum as well as maximum temperatures have been settling below the normal levels. Areas in Punjab and Haryana have been witnessing the mercury going several notches below than usually.

Laws of Physics defied 17 Jan 2017   
          Increased impedance near cut-off in plasma-like media leading to emission of high-power, narrow-bandwidth radiation: M.S.Hur, B. Ersfeld, A. Nobel, H. Suk, D.A. Jaroszynski: Scientific Reports 7, Article Number 40034, 2017: We enhance the spectral density of radiation in a particular frequency band from a generally broad-band electric current, by embedding it in a simple meta-structure or a medium with a plasma-like permittivity. This can be arranged to increase the radiation impedance at a desired frequency, by taking advantage of the well-known fact that the radiation impedance Z=E/H, where E and H are electric and magnetic fields of radiation, respectively, becomes infinite at the cut-off frequency (i.e. H = 0) of a medium with a plasma-like permittivity, where typically 
ω2 = c2k2 + f(ω, ωp) (ωp is the plasma frequency). A current enforced under the cut-off condition (i.e. a pure current source) leads to the apparent non-physical situation of an ‘infinite’ radiation power according to Ohm’s law P = ZI2. This implies that the steady state solution of H = 0 ceases to be valid. Instead, we discover that a monochromatic, continuously oscillating current source in a cut-off region generates a temporally growing and spatially diffusing electric field, which is a solution of the driven-Schrödinger equation. It is surprising that this behaviour has not been previously addressed, in spite of the cut-off being a universal feature of these media. Here we reveal that a specific frequency band (i.e. near the cut-off) is selectively boosted when driven by a broad bandwidth, few-cycle current source, just by immersing it in a medium with a plasma-like permittivity.

MYSTERY WALL OF INDIA
            Possibly between 900-1300 years Rajaputra Kings might have built with Ligo Bricks, the Great wall of India in the Vindhya Hills about 15 feet height extending over 80 km called by local people as Diwal. It has astounding rock cut images of Gods, Goddesses, Nagapratimalu, Lime stone constructed enchanting Lakes, etc innumerable  attractions. Not certain when it was built, there are no evidences of the construction but has certain steps to climb up the wall at certain places. Places, of keeping the arms inside the walls, and to observe the enemies from a long distances exist. Nearby Bhimbetka has 30,000 years old rock hilly places of stay recognised by UNESCO heritage site. Jamnabai Khare, who’s lived in Gorakhpur for 60 of her 80 years, recalls seeing a Sinhavahini, a goddess astride a lion, which is now missing. Chaubey has a photograph of an intact statue of Kal Bhairav, an incarnation of Shiva (others are missing heads or limbs). “The image is all that remains, the idol was stolen last year.”   Jamnabai Khare 60 years old, said that her father-in-law told her that Mahmud of Ghazni destroyed the kingdom.

VISAKHAPATNAM  LOW

                              Next three days Visakhapatnam would face low temperature of order 15 C.

January 18, 2017 OSLO (Reuters)
                 World temperatures hit a record high for the third year in a row in 2016, creeping closer to a ceiling set for global warming with extremes including unprecedented heat in India and ice melt in the Arctic, U.S. government agencies said on Wednesday. Average surface temperatures over land and the oceans in 2016 were 0.94 degrees Celsius (1.69 degrees Fahrenheit) above the 20th-century average of 13.9C (57.0F),

Central Italy hit with 3 large earthquakes in 1 hour 


Fig.4 Shallow Earthquakes in Italy in Jan 2017.

ROME  
                A series of  three strong earthquakes hit central Italy in the space of an hour Wednesday, shaking the same region that suffered a series of deadly quakes last year and has been buried under more than a meter of snow in recent days. 
              There were no immediate reports of deaths after the new tremors, which were all recorded as above magnitude 5.  The tremors came after some 36 hours of steady snowfall in mountainous areas around Amatrice and Norcia.  
                 The first big quake struck at 10:25 (09:25 GMT) with a magnitude of around 5.3, followed at 11:14 with one of 5.4, followed some 11 minutes later by another of 5.3. All three were around 9km (5.6 miles) in depth, meaning they were dangerously close to the surface.The sizeable tremors, four magnitude fives in the space of four hours on Wednesday, appear to have triggered an avalanche that swept into the Rigopiano hotel in the Grand Sasso resort area, killing many of its occupants. The deep drifts have made it difficult for emergency workers to reach the smothered building and deal with the crisis. An earthquake-triggered avalanche buried a hotel at a ski resort in central Italy, leaving up to 29 hotel guests and workers missing or dead, rescue workers said early Thursday 19 Jan 2017.The hotel is about 45 kilometres (30 miles) from the coastal city of Pescara.  Earthquakes hit the region on Wednesday including one with 5.7 R. 
     
Jan 20, 2017, 4:05 PM ET
             Ten people were found alive today in the rubble of an Italian hotel that collapsed after being buried by an avalanche, according to local media reports. Five of the 10 have been pulled out from the Hotel Rigopiano on the Gran Sasso mountain, according to a statement from the civil protection department. Four of the survivors were children.

DELHI AND MIZORAM
              An earthquake of 3.0 magnitude was felt in New Delhi on Wednesday 18 Jan 2017, morning. The tremors were felt in the national capital at around 7:16 am. Meanwhile, tremors of 3.7 magnitude were also felt in Aizwal, Mizoram at the same time. No reports of any casualty have been reported yet from New Delhi and Mizoram. A low-intensity earthquake measuring 3.6 on the Richter scale had struck several parts of Karachi, Pakistan on Tuesday. The tremor lasted for 12 seconds but no loss of life or damage to property was reported from the city.  

INDIA WATER RESERVOIRS
           Just 100 years ago, there were close to 3,000 of these fascinating reservoirs scattered across water-scarce regions of India. However, as a result of diminishing underground water tables, due to a growing population, and the movement towards private water sources such as taps and tanks, stepwells have fallen into disuse. British rulers also deemed stepwells unhygienic and breeding grounds for disease, filling them up with mud or sealing them off from the public.


20 JAN 2017: 9:04 AM 
                   Thousands of South Australian properties remain without power after strong winds, heavy rain and lightning strikes lashed the state. SA Power Networks said 33,000 customers were without services at 5.30am on Friday, including 27,000 in the metropolitan area.

UNUSUAL WIND FLOW IN VISAKHAPATNAM
                 An unusual mild chilly wind flow occurred in Visakhapatnam especially in Muralinagar area, starting from the midday of 18 Jan 2017 and  continued to 20 Jan.  Temperatures fell down by two three degrees and Visakhapatnam air port registered 15C. Gentle Cool breeze blowing from the west on Friday  20 Jan morning. Chilly weather continued on 21 Jan. The nights were very cold. 
                 South coastal of Andhra Pradesh facing low pressure with the Andaman and central Bay of Bengal both affected on Friday 20 Jan. Visakhapatnam became cloudy but the day temperature increased with the night temperatures lowered almost 5 degrees. Till month end this weather seems to continue. Lambasingi recorded 2 C people are shivering with the excessive cold weather. Telangana, North Andhra, Middle coastal towns, Rayalseema feeling the cold, with temperatures of order 10 to 15C. Western disturbances are also affecting Andhra, Telangana and Rayalseema. December initiated cold weather is sustaining in January also. As the chilly weather in the night, so also the day Sun heat being experienced in several cities.    
                 
20 January 2017 01:49 PM
               Punjab, Haryana bear brunt of cold weather, with crops damaged on large scale. The damage of crops can be attributed to the show of frost. Due to sudden drop in temperatures, the dew on the ground freezes and forms a thin layer of ice known as frost. This frost doesn’t allow the plant to photosynthesise and plant turns pale or brown. This situation is also called Cold Burning. Such damage is usually seen in plants like Potato, Peas, Tomatoes and Capsicum. 
ENGLAND
     Brits witnessed a dual face weather this week wherein the north part of the country observed mercury settling in double digits, however, the south continued to freeze. The level-2 cold weather health watch has been raised up to a serious level-3 by the Met Department across south England. Moreover, through the weekend, as colder weather sets in, another level-2 health alert has been issued for central and northern regions. Moreover, the Meteorological Department claims that the southern along with some coastal regions of the country are expected to freeze overnight. The reason for this can be attributed to a high pressure that is settled over Europe. Moreover, this weather system has been inching closer to the UK allowing the icy Polar air to spread across the country. 

SNOWFALL IN SAHARA
                   On Friday 20 Jan unique snow flakes showered on desert Sahara where temperature was 10 to 15 degrees colder than normal. An unusual strong area of low pressure passed over the region. As air flows from higher pressure to low pressure areas, the air rose rapidly and cooled, thus causing an incredible rare snowfall. It was the second snowfall, in much larger scale compared to the first.  Ain Sefra was covered with one meter snow twice as much over ski resorts of French Alps. Children sledged down the snow covered sand dunes. Average in December was 50C.

WATER CRISIS IN SOUTHERN STATES OF INDIA
                       The southern water crisis with water level in 91 reservoirs in the country dips to 53%  with the states of Telangana 72% more, Andhra Pradesh 30% less, Karnataka 39 less (14 reservoirs), Kerala 36%less (6 reservoirs) and Tamil Nadu 80% less (6 reservoirs). Despite normal rainfall and monsoon, 91 major reservoirs in the country dipped 53% of their total capacity as on Friday. 20 Jan. 31 major dams in southern states is only 30% of total capacity. 

NOKIA CAMERA IN CANCER DETECTION
                   The scientists set out to test the idea that current mobile phones provide sufficient imaging to help remotely diagnose diseases like cancer, with spatial resolution and image quality matching high-end pathology microscopes. They smartly chose the lens unit from a Nokia Lumia 1020, a Windows Phone released in 2013. That device packs a now-legendary 41-megapixel Carl Zeiss-branded rear-facing camera (it deserves every hyphen), which researchers say offers a magnification factor of 2.6x. A used 1020 can be purchased on Ebay for a measly $100, offering an appealing megapixel-per-dollar ratio.

21 Jan 2017
       The wind flow stopped in Visakhapatnam. 
Saturday 21 Jan 2017
                 Four people were killed and scores of homes were flattened early Saturday when a tornado hitting in the dark of night ripped through a city in southern Mississippi, officials said. The city of Hattiesburg said via its Twitter account that four people had died after the twister blew through the city and surrounding area. The twister was part of a wall of stormy weather traveling across the region, bringing with it rain and unstable conditions. At least 11 dead in the storm. At least 11 people died and around two dozen were injured in Georgia from tornadoes early Sunday morning. Shortly before 4 a.m. ET on Sunday, the National Weather Service reported a tornado near Adel in Cook County, Georgia.
22 Jan 2017
                      A powerful 7.9R earthquake has struck, initial 8R,  struck some 47 km west of Arawa on the north coast of Bougainville island at a depth of 154 km deep off Papua New Guinea, causing damage and blackouts but no tsunami hours after an alert for nearby islands. Tsunami waves of up to a meter above the tide level are possible for some coasts of Papua New Guinea and nearby Solomon Islands.
DWARF CLUSTER GALAXIES at 11:16 AM
Monday 23 Jan 2017
                The first sighting of clustered dwarf galaxies bolsters a leading theory about how big galaxies such as our Milky Way are formed, and how dark matter binds them, researchers claim. Theorised but never seen, the bundled galaxies were discovered using the largest optical survey of the night sky ever compiled, they reported in the journal Nature Astronomy on Monday. Seven clusters of three-to-five galaxies are each 10 to 1000 times smaller than the Milky Way. Unlike our home galaxy, all have long-since stopped giving birth to new stars.

           For most metals, the relationship between electrical and thermal conductivity is governed by the Wiedemann-Franz Law. Simply put, the law states that good conductors of electricity are also good conductors of heat. That is not the case for metallic vanadium dioxide, a material already noted for its unusual ability to switch from an insulator to a metal when it reaches a balmy 67 degrees Celsius, or 152 degrees Fahrenheit.  Could lead to a wide range of applications, such as thermoelectric systems that convert waste heat from engines and appliances into electricity. According to a new study led by scientists at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and at the University of California, Berkeley, electrons in vanadium dioxide can conduct electricity without conducting heat.

BREAK DOWN OF STANDARD MODEL  26 January 2017

         Implications from BK+ observables using 3fb1 of LHCb data: Rusa Mandal and Rahul Sinha, Phys. Rev. D 95, 014026, 2017:    The decay mode   B K + results in the measurement of a large number of related observables by studying the angular distribution of the decay products and is regarded as a sensitive probe of physics beyond the standard model (SM). Recently, LHCb has measured several of these observables using 3fb1 data, as a binned function of q2 , the dilepton invariant mass squared. We show how data can be used without any approximations to extract theoretical parameters describing the decay and to obtain a relation amongst observables within the SM. We find three kinds of significant disagreement between theoretical expectations and values obtained by fits. The values of the form factors obtained from experimental data show significant discrepancies when compared with theoretical expectations in several  q2 bins. We emphasize that this discrepancy cannot arise completely due to resonances and non-factorizable contributions from charm loops. Further, a relation between form factors expected to hold at large q2 is very significantly violated. Finally, the relation between observables also indicates some deviations in the forward-backward asymmetry in the same  q2  regions. These discrepancies are possible evidence of physics beyond the SM.

Science 26 Jan 2017
             Producing metallic hydrogen has been a great challenge to condensed matter physics. Metallic hydrogen may be a room temperature superconductor and metastable when the pressure is released and could have an important impact on energy and rocketry. We have studied solid molecular hydrogen under pressure at low temperatures. At a pressure of 495 GPa hydrogen becomes metallic with reflectivity as high as 0.91. We fit the reflectance using a Drude free electron model to determine the plasma frequency of 32.5 ± 2.1 eV at T= 5.5 K, with a corresponding electron carrier density of 7.7 ± 1.1 × 1023 particles/cm3, consistent with theoretical estimates of the atomic density. The properties are those of an atomic metal. We have produced the Wigner-Huntington dissociative transition to atomic metallic hydrogen in the laboratory.

The foundations of the three-storey tourist hotel, which is built on the river’s edge, eroded due to the constant rainfall over the past week and the rising waters. January 27, 2017 8:07 pm. Heavy rains and mudslides in Peru causes death, widespread destruction

Lucknow: Saturday, January 28, 2017 - 08:46
            Heavy rains in the past 24-hours till Saturday morning have intensified the cold wave in Lucknow and nearby areas of Uttar Pradesh. Some areas like Unnao, Barabanki, Amethi, Sultanpur, Ambedkarnagar, Bahraich and Lucknow also received hail. One person was killed after being struck by lightning in Bahraich. Storm with a speed of 30 km per hour at some places uprooted trees and hoardings, leading to power cuts. The rains have come as a blessing for the wheat crop while mustard and pulses have taken a hit.
