Kamarajar Port has become India’s second major port to achieve an 18-metre draft capability, marking a significant milestone in strengthening the country’s maritime infrastructure and enhancing its global trade competitiveness. The enhanced draft enables the port to accommodate larger cargo vessels with higher load capacities, improving operational efficiency and reducing logistics costs. The development is expected to increase cargo handling capacity, attract more mainline vessels and strengthen India's position in global shipping and maritime trade. The upgraded infrastructure will facilitate faster turnaround of ships, improve supply chain efficiency and support…

Researchers have developed a new technique to dynamically tune the optical properties of metals, opening a promising pathway for the development of programmable nanophotonic devices. The breakthrough enables precise control over the interaction of light with metallic nanostructures, paving the way for advanced optical technologies. The study demonstrates that the optical response of metals, traditionally considered fixed, can be modified in a controlled manner. This capability could facilitate the design of reconfigurable nanophotonic components that can be programmed to perform different functions without requiring physical changes to the device. The…

Astronomers have discovered that faint activity from supermassive black holes is far more widespread in nearby galaxies than previously understood, according to a new high-resolution radio study. The findings provide important insights into the prevalence of low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their role in shaping the evolution of galaxies.   The research, based on sensitive, high-resolution radio observations, detected weak radio emissions from the central regions of a large sample of nearby galaxies. These emissions indicate ongoing, low-level accretion of matter onto supermassive black holes, even in galaxies that…
