C.V. Raman's Student L.A. Ramdas
From Agricultural Meteorology to Discovery of Ramdas Layer
Indian physicist C.V. Raman, the founder of the Raman Spectroscopy, is highly respected in India because till this date he is the only Indian who received Nobel Prize in science. Lesser known fact is that Raman trained almost 100 scientists in his laboratories, who influenced the development of science and technology in India. L.A. Ramdas was one of them who began his reserarch career under Raman in the beginning of the 1920s. Not only, he coined the term Raman effect, but also studied the effect of light scattering in gases and vapours. The present book presents Ramdas’s work on light scattering in associtation with Raman, his venture in establishing a new field, namely agricultural meteorology, and subsequently the discovery of Ramdas Layer, named after him.
