Satyendra Nath Bose was an Indian mathematician and physicist broadly known for the invention of Bosons or ‘God Particle’. The renowned physicist is best recognized for his collaboration with Albert Einstein in developing theory of the Bose-Einstein condensate and the foundation for Bose-Einstein statistics. On his 136th birth anniversary, here are some interesting facts .

The renowned physicist was born on January 1, 1894, in Calcutta (now Kolkata). He passed away at the age of 80, on February 4, 1974.

The most key accomplishment of Bose is his association with Einstein, while he working on quantum physics and relativity theory. Bose-Einstein condensate was a result of Bose and Einstein’s prediction of a state of matter of a dilute gas of bosons.

For his excellence service towards science and research, the  India Government conferred him India’s second-highest civilian award, the Padma Vibhushan in 1954. The government also established the S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences in 1986.

For his contribution to the unified field theory and Bose-Einstein statistics, Satyendra Nath Bose was nominated by K Banerji, S.N. Bagchi, D.S. Kothari  and AK Dutta for the Nobel Prize in Physics,. It is to be known that when the physicist was asked about not receiving the Nobel Prize, he replied, “I have got all the recognition I deserve”. He died at the age of 90 in Calcutta. Rabindranath Tagore dedicated his only book on science, ‘Visva–Parichay,’ to Bose in 1937.
