2016-2017

This year ASF started its journey with the lecture by Prof.V.K. Tripathi, from IIT, Delhi on 17th February 2017 on "Radiation due to free electron". The annual fest "AAVEG" was held on 7-8th March, 2017 with about 15 events including technical events like robo race, science quiz and paper presentation and non-technical events like tug of war, treasure hunt, lan gaming and JAM all of which served their purpose by bringing out the unlocking of the minds of all. Event like brain twister got the attention of all, blowed the minds of many, but hit the trigger of mind of few. Five students of B.Sc.(H) Physics VI semester who visited Inter University Accelerator Centre (IUAC) on the occasion of National Science Day on 28th February 2017won the quiz competition at IUAC. In continuation with the Lecture Series a talk on "Energy Harvesting"was given by Prof. Vinay Gupta, Department of Physics, University of Delhi focusing on present day needs of energy and new ways to harvest it.
