This year COEP has witnessed another great day in its history when Nobel Laureate Dr. George F. Smoot has arrived to COEP for his special lecture on "The History and Fate of the Universe". It was a great experience to meet person like him and his lecture has aspired many of us to change their thoughts about universe and "Physics" also. All the event has been sponsored and managed by Honeywell (Well they have given us a college bag as well.) , But the COEP students from Astronomy Club have also worked hard to manage all the event.
Talking bout Dr. George Smoot, He was co-awarded the 2006 Nobel prize in Physics for discovery of the blackbody form and aniostropy of the cosmic microwave background radiation. Currently Dr. Smoot conducts research in astrophysics and observational cosmology and is most famous for his research on the cosmic background radiation.This radiation is thought to be the relic of the intense heat of the early Big Bang.
About the topic, The History and Fate of the Universe says--
"Using our most advanced techniques and instruments we sift through relic clues and evidence to understand the events surrounding the birth and subsequent development of the universe. There remain even more mysteries to be solved, in spite of which we can tell the tale of the creation a history of the universe and show key supporting evidence, some of it from very early times including using the cosmic background light to provide a direct image of the embryo universe."
At last we had an outstanding experience there, Thanks to Astronomy club and Honeywell.
