National Science Day 2020: <\/strong>Every year National Science Day is celebrated on February 28th<\/strong><\/em> to honour the discovery of “Raman Effect.” This day is celebrated to commemorate the discovery of Raman Effect by great Indian Physicist Sir C. V Raman. It is on this day C. V Raman made an important discovery in the subject of Physics and won the noble prize for the same.<\/p>\n The government of India felicitates scientists who have contributed to the field of science every year.\u00a0 This year, the National Science Day 2020 theme is going to be “Women in Science<\/strong>“. The Science Day 2020 will be celebrated on Feb 28th at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi. President Ram Nath Kovind will give prizes to Women Scientists on this day for their unprecedented contributions in the science field.<\/p>\n Raman found that a fraction of incident light is scattered when a light beam traverses through a dust-free, transparent sample of a chemical compound. While most of the scattered light has same wavelength, a part of it has different wavelength than the incident light. This feature is known as Raman Effect which was named after the renowned scientist Sir C.V Raman, the brain behind this discovery.<\/p>\nWhat is Raman Effect?<\/h3>\n
