Cyclotrons

A City of Cyclotrons~II

Now, in Kolkata, three cyclotrons are working without any glitch. Now, science in Bengal has gone behind the purdah.

It was a revolution quietly changing the rules of the game, from pages of theoretical physics, the City of Joy had arrived at the frontiers of experimental nuclear physics. That was a little over 40 years ago.
