A little boy growing up in Calcutta (now Kolkata) is brilliant in mathematics. In school, he is forever remembered as the only student to ever score 110out of 100 in maths! The boy, Satyendranath Bose, would go on to proposetheories that would change the fi eld of physics forever.

In 1924, Satyendranath Bose wrote a scientifi c paper that impressed the mostfamous scientist in the world-Albert Einstein. This paper was translatedby Einstein into German and published for the world to read.

SatyendranathBose's fi ndings were groundbreaking in the statistical foundations of quantummechanics. He carried out statistical calculations for the kind of particlesthat were named after him-the boson.

Einstein extended his work andpredicted the lowest energy state, called the Bose-Einstein Condensate. It wasexperimentally achieved in the twentieth century, seventy years later!This is the story of an astonishing mind that loved to learn, whether it wasscience, literature, or music.

It is also about a man who was admired by thegreatest scientists of all time. Satyendranth Bose's fi ndings in the area ofphysics made him immortal.

This is his amazing story. .
