Latest @ChemRxiv preprint: We studied an interesting system - Nanocluster on MgO surface! We observed nanosecond dynamics of a 2D like Au-NC localised on F-Center defect site & preferential binding of CO on specific Au sites

@MoCA_GoI seems to have woke up! I hope the ministry monitors the aviation beyond this crisis time! #AviationCrisis #AviationCollapse

[News Algebra @NewsAlgebraIND]

BIG BREAKING NEWS 🚨 Centre DIRECTS airlines not to charge fares beyond the limits set in its latest order:

Up to 500 km: ₹7,500

500 to 1000 km: ₹12,000

1000 to 1500 km: ₹15,000

Above 1500 km: ₹18,000

Major relief to passengers.

Aviation Ministry says it will keep a close watch on fare levels to prevent predatory pricing.

[Tarak Karmakar @TarakChem]

@MoCA_GoI @IndiGo6E It was bound to happen when @IndiGo6E stopped caring about many technical and operational issues over the years! Do not take things for granted! Feel sorry for passengers! @MoCA_GoI

[Tarak Karmakar @TarakChem]

@IndiGo6E there was a time I praised your service! I’m sorry to say the check-in system is a scam now! Even when we check in 1 day before, I see almost all seats are occupied, and rest are tagged with extra price. The automatic system always allocate the last two seats! Why?

[Tarak Karmakar @TarakChem]

What’s going on @MoCA_GoI? Are you at all active? Do you regulate policies?

Pathetic service by @IndiGo6E
For two passengers with a single PNR, you assign two middle seats in the last row (39B and 39E), are you crazy?

[Tarak Karmakar @TarakChem]

@IndiGo6E Is it a joke? Do you think I’m unaware of this instruction and auto-generated reply? The auto-assign check-in is useless! Why does it always assign the last row seats - that too two middle seats on two sides for passengers with a single PNR?

[Tarak Karmakar @TarakChem]

@RamMNK please look into this matter. I hope your office will take a regulatory action.

[Tarak Karmakar @TarakChem]

@MoCA_GoI @IndiGo6E All seats with additional cost!

[Tarak Karmakar @TarakChem]

@StructBioinfo Same here, it’s going crazy! I’m getting review requests almost every alternate day, and it’s getting difficult to keep up with the manuscripts I handle at a time!

[Tarak Karmakar @TarakChem]

So inspiring!

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

“My parents could barely read or write. It’s been quite a journey, science allows you to do it.”

New laureate Omar Yaghi was in the middle of changing flights when we reached him, just after he heard that he had been awarded the 2025 #NobelPrize in Chemistry.

In this interview we speak about his early life as a refugee in Jordan and the overwhelming draw of the beauty of chemistry: “I set out to build beautiful things and solve intellectual problems.”
