Ultrathin silicon structures can tune mid-IR light in billionths of a second
Light in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) portion of the electromagnetic spectrum plays a key role in modern sensing. Because molecules interact with this kind of light in specific ways, researchers use technologies like mid-IR spectroscopy to identify biological materials, drugs and pollutants. Mid-IR light can also serve as a carrier of information in free-space optical communications, where data are transmitted through the air without using cables or fibers. Better control of mid-IR light could therefore lead to more sensitive detectors and faster communications.

Continuous video of black hole radio observations challenges shock wave theory
For years, scientists have relied primarily on radio imaging from techniques like very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) to study jets from the active galactic nuclei of supermassive black holes. This allows for the detection of broad, unresolved features, called components, moving at what appear to be faster-than-light speeds. However, traditional imaging has poor resolution and treats each observation as a separate snapshot in time, limiting information about how the features move.

Quote of the day by Sandra Bullock offers a mature definition of achievement. Success is not a flawless gift wrapped in admiration and applause; it can be complicated, demanding and occasionally uncomfortable. The prickly package may contain opportunities alongside pressure, recognition alongside criticism and freedom alongside responsibility. What matters is understanding what comes with the achievement and consciously deciding whether it is worth embracing. For people chasing ambitious goals, that lesson can change the way they view difficult moments. Instead of asking why success is not easier, they can ask whether the challenges are helping them build a life they genuinely value. Sometimes the thorns are not evidence that the dream is wrongthey are simply part of what makes meaningful achievement real.

DK Shivakumar To Be PM In 2029 Or Beyond? Can He Follow Deve Gowda's Path? | NDTV Loves Books!
How did DK Shivakumar go from a young Congress politician to one of the party's most important crisis managers and now Karnataka's Chief Minister? In this episode of NDTV Loves Books, veteran journalist Rasheed Kidwai speaks to Gargi Rawat about his book D.K. Shivakumar: Congress's Crisis Manager, Karnataka's Kingmaker. Kidwai traces Shivakumar's political journey, from his early years in student politics and his association with Rajiv Gandhi, to the high-stakes political battles that earned him a reputation as a troubleshooter and a fiercely loyal Congress leader. The conversation examines Shivakumar's relationships with the Gandhi family, his patience during the Karnataka chief ministerial tussle, his political risk-taking, his religious identity within the Congress, and the question of whether his influence can extend beyond Karnataka. But the biggest test may now be governance. With Bengaluru's infrastructure, development and upcoming political battles putting pressure on him, can Shivakumar convert his political instincts into delivery? And ultimately: Can the Rock of Karnataka become the rock of the Congress party?

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 10 (IANS) A veteran police officer, foreign expert and leaders across the political spectrum on Thursday criticised the new map issued by the United Nations after it depicted Arunachal Pradesh and Aksai Chin as separate regions positioned between the respective claim lines of India and China, warning that such things won't be tolerated. While appealing the Centre to lodge a protest at the UN against the incident, they also asked the global organisation o take note that China has illegally occupied Aksai Chin. Speaking to IANS, former Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police (DGP) S.P. Vaid said: India should raise the issue again at the UN and file a protest. These are our territories. The entirety of Jammu and Kashmir belongs to India. Aksai Chin is also part of India and has been illegally occupied by China, UN should take a note of this. Foreign Affairs Expert K.P. Fabian also said that it's appropriate for India to protest against the issued map. BJP spokesperson Pratul Shah Deo termed incident, extremely objectionable. This is not a mistake. There are some kind of insane people who sometimes show Aksai Chin and Arunachal Pradesh as separate regions and also depict Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, which is a part of India, as a part of that (Pakistan's) country...all these three are integral parts of India. Portraying them separately won't be tolerated, he asserted, while adding that the Ministry of External Affairs have flagged the anomalies in the new world map. Congress MP Pramod Tiwari told IANS: China has its eyes on Arunachal Pradesh and a large part of Ladakh, including Aksai Chin. The map released by the UN is erroneous, and it undermines our sovereignty. We do not accept it. Moreover, he appealed to the Indian government to strongly oppose the move, otherwise it would come across as if the government is scared of China. Echoing similar view, Samajwadi Party Maharashtra President Abu Azmi also opposed the depiction of Arunachal Pradesh as a separate region from India. This is a grave injustice to the country. Arunachal Pradesh is an integral part of India...depicting it as a separate region is extremely wrong...I appeal Prime Minister Narendra Modi to leave issues related to Hindus and Muslims and instead try to save our land, he told IANS.

'Khedawala's conduct was personal', says Gujarat Cong leader on 'Vande Mataram' row
Digital Desk | Gandhinagar, Sep 10 (IANS) Gujarat Congress Legislative Party leader Tushar Chaudhary said on Thursday that Congress had no instruction or official position asking MLA Imran Khedawala to sit during the rendition of 'Vande Mataram' in the State Assembly, calling the incident a result of some misunderstanding on the part of the legislator. Speaking to IANS, Chaudhary said the fact that no other Congress MLA sat during the rendition made it clear that Khedawala's action was not the party's position. There was no such stand of the Congress party. If it had been the party's stand, all of us who are Congress MLAs would have sat down. But apart from Imran bhai, no one else sat. We gave full respect to the singing of Vande Mataram, he added. He said Khedawala had himself expressed regret over the incident and accepted that a mistake had occurred. Chaudhary was also asked about Khedawala's explanation that he had remained standing during the traditional rendition but sat down when additional lines were being sung. He said the additional portion was the likely point at which Khedawala sat down, adding that traditionally only two stanzas had been sung since 1937. Since 1937, these two stanzas have been sung. The government has now passed a law in 2026 in Parliament providing for the singing of the complete song. Today, we have 182 MLAs in Gujarat Assembly, and I can say with confidence that more than half of them do not know the complete Vande Mataram. I myself do not know the complete song and I accept that, Chaudhary added. He noted that generations of legislators had grown up hearing and singing the same two stanzas, and therefore some members might not immediately be familiar with the additional portion. It is possible that Imran bhai thought it had ended and therefore sat down, or there may have been something else. Whatever happened, only Imran bhai can explain it. I cannot say what was in his mind, he said. Chaudhary reiterated that the Congress had not issued any direction for Khedawala to take such a position. The party (Congress) had given no order. There was no stand of the Congress party that Imran bhai should do this, he said. On Government spokesperson Jitu Vaghani's allegation that Khedawala's position represented the stand of the entire Congress, Chaudhary rejected the claim and said the party had a clearly defined position on the rendition of 'Vande Mataram' at its own programmes. Our party's clear stand is that at our party conventions and programmes, we will sing those stanzas that have been sung since 1937. That is our clear stand, the Congress Legislative Party leader said. He added that this position applied specifically to Congress party programmes and not to the functioning of legislative bodies or government events. We will not do this in the state Assembly, Lok Sabha or Rajya Sabha, nor at any government programme. But at our party programmes, this is our stand, he said. The clarification comes a day after the 'Vande Mataram' row triggered a political confrontation in the Gujarat Assembly. The government side has submitted a representation to Assembly Speaker Shankar Chaudhary over Khedawala's conduct, with the Speaker expected to consider the matter during the second day of the Monsoon session.

Punjab BJP chief Dhillon's convoy attacked by AAP workers
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Sep 10 (IANS) The convoy of Punjab Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) President Kewal Singh Dhillon was allegedly attacked by workers of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Thursday, but he and other senior party leaders escaped unhurt. The attack took place when Dhillon was on his way to Toor Banjara village in Dirba in Sangrur district to offer condolences to the family of Gulzar Singh, who had allegedly died by suicide after being allegedly distressed by the state government. He was accompanied in the vehicle by BJP National Vice-President Manpreet Singh Badal, former State Presidents Sunil Jakhar and Ashwani Sharma. Dhillon said in a statement that the tenure of the Aam Aadmi Party had turned into a rule of hooliganism, where no one was safe. He noted that today AAP workers stopped and attacked his vehicle. This was not an attack on me, but an attack on democracy, Dhillon was quoted as saying. He said he was going with senior leaders of BJP to raise his voice for justice for Gulzar Singh's family, but on the way AAP workers, allegedly acting at the behest of their masters in Delhi, surrounded his vehicle. He added that even more shocking was the fact that the police administration stood just 100 metres ahead and watched the entire incident as a mute spectator. The (AAP) government is attempting to silence not only the voice of the people but also that of the Opposition. The Aam Aadmi Party has resorted to politics of 'saam, daam, dand, bhed'. The State BJP Chief said that the Aam Aadmi Party had crossed all limits of oppression and that its end was now near. The self-respecting people of Punjab are ready to give a befitting reply to this high-handedness. He said the BJP would not be intimidated by such attacks by the AAP government and would firmly confront every act of high-handedness by the Punjab government. During their return journey to Chandigarh, the route of Dhillon and the accompanying BJP leaders was also blocked by AAP workers. However, Dhillon and the other BJP leaders got out of their vehicles, proceeded towards the road blocked by the AAP workers, and crossed the route on foot along with the convoy, the statement added.

'I Played The Ball, Not The Bowler': Salil Arora Recalls No-look Six Off Bumrah In IPL 2026
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Punjab batter Salil Arora made headlines when he smashed a 10-ball 30 against Mumbai Indians in one of the matches during his debut Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season for Sunrisers Hyderabad, where he hit a spectacular no-look six off India pace icon Jasprit Bumrah. Arora played a strong hand in the death overs in SRH's clash against five-time winners MI, as he helped his team chase down 244 at the Wankhede Stadium. Heinrich Klaasen led the chase with his unbeaten 30-ball 65, but Salil also made a strong impact coming in at No.6 in the death overs with his 30-run outing, which included three sixes and two fours. He hit one of those maximums to Bumrah, a no-look hit straight down the ground to one of the best modern-day cricketers in the world. Speaking exclusively to IANS, Arora recalled his memorable knock, emphasising that his focus was not on the bowler, but on the ball rather. When I went to bat, there were a lot of big names in front of me. Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah and Suryakumar Yadav among others. So our senior players and coaches were just telling me, 'don't think that there are big players in front of you'. So when Bumrah came to bowl to me, I didn't think he was coming in. I played the ball, not the bowler, and backed my batting, Salil told IANS. Arora, who is currently playing for Ludhiana Lions in the Sher-E-Punjab T20 League, had a stellar outing in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2025-26, wherein he scored 358 runs, including an unbeaten 125 off 45 balls against Jharkhand. That helped him earn an IPL deal with SRH as he was picked for Rs 1.50 crore by the 2016 champions. Arora reflected on the advice he received from the SRH leadership group and sharing the dressing room with the likes of Pat Cummins, Heinrich Klaasen, Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan.
