What gravitational waves haven't told us yet | Dr. Sanjit Mitra | TEDxVITPune
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
A scientist and professor, Dr. Sanjit Mitra has done considerable research in ‘Efficient analysis algorithms for Gravitational Waves and Cosmology’. His talk gives us an insight into the unexplored applications of gravitational waves- ideas we probably weren’t aware of! Dr. Sanjit Mitra has completed his B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Physics from University of Calcutta and received Ph.D. in Physics for his notable research in ‘Efficient analysis algorithms for Gravitational Waves & Cosmology’ from the University of Pune. His areas of interest include- Gravitational Waves, Cosmic Micro-wave background and Computational Astrophysics and Cosmology. He has been presented with the NASA group Achievement Award for contribution to Planck Data Analysis and Early Release Compact Source Catalog thrice! He also is the recipient of the LIGO Thesis prize. He currently works as an associate professor at Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx

New finding you don’t know before, Einstein proving method for hypothesis “deflection of light by the Sun” via eclipse isn’t scientific and deeply wrong. (The Universe and Dr.Einstein, Lincoln Barnett, London 1949, page 78-79).
Chance to test general relativity in 2017 eclipse in USA, with the astronomical scientific method. It is easy and not costly, just by sextant to measure the altitude of stars and look at the 2017 Nautical Almanac to find deviation of the star. In this event of 2017 eclipse, the bright star Regulus meet Einstein prediction “.. for the stars observed being the closest to the Sun, their deviation was about 1.75 seconds of an arc.” -
