New Delhi [India], May 19 (ANI/NewsVoir): Quantum computing has the potential to prevent the onslaught of the next pandemic, Dr Omkar Rai, India's leading technology expert, has said.
Machine learning helps pick out stars in a crowd
Indian Astronomers have developed a new method based on Machine Learning that can identify cluster stars– assembly of stars physically related through common origin, with much greater certainty. The method can be used on clusters of all ages, distances, and densities. The method has been used to identify hundreds of additional stars for six different clusters up to 18000 light-years away and uncover peculiar stars.
Studying stars and how they evolve is the cornerstone of astronomy. But understanding them is difficult since they are observed at different ages. A star cluster is, therefore, a great place to study stars. All stars in a star cluster have approximately the same age and chemistry, so any differences seen can be attributed to the peculiarities in individual stars with certainty. As the clusters are part of the Milky Way, there are many stars between us and the cluster, so it isn’t easy to identify and select the stars o

Hester Biosciences jumped 14.1% to Rs 2820 after the company announced that it has tied up with the Government of Gujarat and with Omnibrx for manufacturing COVID vaccine.A triparty consortium has been formed between Hester Biosciences, Gujarat Biotechnology Research Centre, Department of Science & Technology, Government of Gujarat and Omnibrx to explore the prospects of manufacturing the Covid vaccine through technology from Bharat Biotech.
Government of Gujarat is the lead partner in the triparty consortium. The discussions are currently on-going with Bharat Biotech towards reviewing the infrastructure at Hester, the technology adaption process and the regulatory compliances. Based on the outcome of the review, the next course of action will be determined.
