Professor Jamal Nazrul Islam

Professor Jamal Nazrul Islam
Jamal Nazrul Islam (24 February 1939 – 16 March 2013) was a Bangladeshi scientific physicist and cosmologist. He was a teacher at University of Chittagong, filled in as an individual from the warning board at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology and individual from the syndicate at Chittagong University of Engineering and Technology until his passing . He additionally filled in as the executive of the Research Center for Mathematical and Physical Sciences at the University of Chittagong, Chittagong, Bangladesh. He was granted Ekushey Padak in 2000 by the Government of Bangladesh. Islam was conceived on 24 February 1939 in Jhenaidah, East Bengal. His dad, Khan Bahadur Sirajul Islam, was a sub-judge in British India. Due to his dad's activity, Islam spent his initial school a very long time in Calcutta. He learned at Chittagong Collegiate School and College until class ix and after that he went to Lawrence College, Murree in West Pakistan to pass the Senior Cambridge and Higher Senior Cambridge exams. He got a BSc degree from St. Xavier's College at the University of Calcutta. In 1959, he got his Honors in Functional Mathematics and Theoretical Physics from Cambridge University. He finished his Masters in 1960. An understudy of the Trinity College, he completed the Mathematical Tripos. Islam acquired his PhD in connected arithmetic and hypothetical material science from Trinity College, Cambridge in 1968, trailed by a DSc in 1982.

Islam worked in the Institute of Theoretical Astronomy (later amalgamated to Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge) from 1967 until 1971. Later he filled in as a scientist in California Institute of Technology and University of Washington. Amid 1973-1974 he filled in as the personnel of Applied Mathematics of King's College London. In 1978 he at that point joined the personnel of City University London until the point that he came back to Chittagong in 1984. In 2006, he was made Professor Emeritus at the University of Chittagong.

His examination regions incorporate Applied Mathematics, Theoretical Physics, Mathematical Physics, hypothesis of Gravitation, General Relativity, Mathematical Cosmology and Quantum Field Theory. Islam created/coauthored/altered more than 50 logical articles, books and some famous articles distributed in different logical diaries. Other than this he has likewise composed books in Bengali. Especially imperative are Black Hole, distributed by the Bangla Academy, "The Mother Tongue, Scientific Research and different Articles" and "Workmanship, Literature and Society". The last two are gatherings.

In 1997, Islam was welcome to the International Symposium on Mathematical Physics in memory of S. Chandrasekhar with an extraordinary session on Abdus Salam masterminded by Calcutta Mathematical Society in Kolkata-India. Educator Narayan Chandra Ghosh, a mathematician of India, was executive of the prominent symposium. Islam kicked the bucket on 16 March 2013 in Chittagong, Bangladesh.

Dr. Abul Hussam (Scientist)

Dr. Abul Hussam (Scientist) Dr. Abul Hussam is the innovator of the Sono arsenic channel. He is a science Professor at George Mason University (GMU) in Fairfax, Virginia and an individual from warning board at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology.  Dr. Abul Hussam was conceived in Kushtia, and brought up in Bangladesh, Hussam moved to the United States in 1978 for graduate investigations. Later he got a doctorate in expository science and turned into a naturalized native of USA. The Centreville, Virginia inhabitant has spent quite a bit of this profession endeavoring to devise an answer for the issue of arsenic pollution of groundwater in Eastern India and Bangladesh.  Hussam began taking a shot at this issue since 1993. His last advancement is a straightforward, upkeep free framework that utilizations sand, charcoal, bits of block and shards of a sort of cast press. The channel expels relatively every hint of arsenic from well water. The wells conveyed crisp g...

Kazi Nazrul Islam

Kazi Nazrul Islam Kazi Nazrul Islam (24 May 1899 – 29 August 1976) was a Bengali artist, author, performer, and progressive. He is the national writer of Bangladesh. Famously known as Nazrul, he created a substantial assemblage of verse and music with topics that included religious dedication and profound defiance to one party rule and mistreatment. Nazrul's activism for political and social equity earned him the title of "Radical Poet". His arrangements frame the cutting edge kind of Nazrul Sangeet (Music of Nazrul). Notwithstanding being respected in Bangladesh, he is similarly celebrated and worshipped in India, particularly in the Bengali-talking conditions of West Bengal and Tripura. Conceived in a Bengali Muslim Kazi family, Nazrul Islam got religious instruction and as a young fellow filled in as a muezzin at a nearby mosque. He found out about verse, dramatization, and writing while at the same time working with the country showy gathering Letor Dal. He jo...
