SBI issues unauthorized Fastag to my car without permission, & refuses to close it ( >1 week passed). Now with the 1 car 1 fastag policy, I cant apply for any other fastag too. What am I supposed to do? @TheOfficialSBI@FASTag_NETC@NHAI_Official@jagograhakjago@NPCI_NPCI
National Lab (LBNL) results support LK-99 as a room-temperature ambient-pressure superconductor.
Simulations published 1 hour ago on arxiv support LK-99 as the holy grail of modern material science and applied physics.

Here's the plain-english explanation:
- The simulations modeled what the original Korean authors proposed was happening to their material - where copper atoms were percolating into a crystal structure and replacing lead atoms, causing the crystal to strain slightly and contract by 0.5%. This unique structure was proposed to allow this amazing property.
- @sineatrix from Lawrence Berkeley National Lab simulated this using heavy-duty compute power from the Department of Energy, and looked to see what would happen to the 'electronic structure' of this material, meaning, what are the available conduction pathways in the material.
- It turns out that there are conduction pathways for electrons that are in just the right conditions and places that would enable them to 'superconduct'. More specifically, they were close to the 'Fermi Surface' which is like the sea-level of electrical energy, as in '0 ft above sea-level.' It's believed currently that the more conduction pathways close to the Fermi surface, the higher the temperature you can superconduct at (An analogy might be how its easier for planes to fly close to the surface of the ocean due to the 'ground effect' that gives them more lift.)
This plot in particular shows the 'bands', or electron pathways, crossing above and below the Fermi surface.
- Lastly, these interesting conduction pathways only form when the copper atom percolates into the less likely location in the crystal lattice, or the 'higher energy' binding site. This means the material would be difficult to synthesize since only a small fraction of crystal gets its copper in just the right location.
This is insanely bullish for humanity.

No internet for a full day and no response from your team after filing complaint. You guys call 30 times for renewal payment but cant confirm what the issue is??
The story gave me a sleepless night. As a journalist, I am trying to not to get attached to the stories but end up getting emotionally involved.
Can not imagine the pain and agony of her husband who not only lost his unborn child but his life companion.
💉 My parents got vaccinated last week
And so did a few colleagues, friends & their relatives
If you have Qs on the process, especially on some simple hacks such as
- how to pick the vaccine (yes, you can)
- minimise wait times
- and other FAQs

I think everyone could use a lighthearted/happy story right now so here goes:
At the beginning of the pandemic I went through some painful personal stuff and would often go out at night for long walks because no one was around and I couldn’t sleep anyway. One night I was walking
