Fundamentalism

An India-UK physics team led by Professor Sougato Bose from UCL has proposed a ground-breaking experiment to determine if gravity follows quantum mechanics, like other fundamental forces. Using a table-top setup, they aim to measure gravitational interactions between two nanodiamonds. The study, requiring cutting-edge technology, could take 10-15 y...

Vice-President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Saturday said dharma is the most fundamental concept of Indian culture, guiding all aspects of life and that inequities have no place in a society governed by dharma.

The killing of Hezbollah's powerful leader Hassan Nasrallah a month ago has marked a fundamental shift for the Iran-backed Lebanese movement and revived calls for it to surrender its vast weapons arsenal.

The first stunning images from the European Space Agency's Euclid telescope reveal a mosaic of over 14 million galaxies, marking just 1% of its cosmic atlas. Captured over two weeks, this vast collection aims to enhance our understanding of dark matter and dark energy, contributing to the largest and most accurate map of the universe yet. The teles...

Abortion rights are arguably the single-most important issue in the US ahead of the presidential election on November 5. It affects 50% of the population and is a matter of an individual's fundamental liberty, which is protected by the Constitution.

The curriculum integrates fundamental courses in science and engineering with specialised topics, including textile technology, sustainability, nanotechnology, smart textiles, and technical textiles.

The row over animal fat allegedly being used to make the famed Tirupati laddoos reached the Supreme Court on Friday with a lawyer filing a petition alleging that the act violates fundamental Hindu religious customs.

India has served a formal notice to Pakistan seeking a review of the Indus Water Treaty, arguing that "fundamental and unforeseen" changes in the circumstances require a reassessment of the pact.

This article explores the significance of recognising the symptoms and signs of common mental disorders, which is fundamental in the efforts to prevent suicide.

A new milestone in atomic physics has been reached with the development of the thorium-229 nuclear clock. This advanced clock offers a precision level that could potentially reveal whether the fundamental constants of physics, such as the speed of light and gravitational constant, change over time. Detected by Chuankun Zhang and his team at JILA, t...

Artificial intelligence is advancing the field of cosmology by enabling astronomers to determine five fundamental cosmological parameters with remarkable precision. Researchers from the Flatiron Institute's Center for Computational Astrophysics (CCA) in New York City have used AI to analyse extensive data from over 100,000 galaxies, observed throug...

Bangladesh is carrying out "fundamental, philosophical" reforms to bring back the country on the path of growth after living through years of entrenched corruption under the now ousted Awami League government.

A pregnant woman's bodily autonomy and right of self-determination are an intrinsic part of her fundamental rights enshrined in the Constitution, the Delhi High Court has observed while allowing a woman to terminate her 22-week pregnancy from a trans

The HR manager tried to explain that deducting seven days' salary for a single day's absence was not "fair practice under the law or fundamental rights."

The Supreme Court on Thursday said the fundamental right to equality guarantees "factual and not formal equality", and if different persons are not similarly situated, a classification is permissible.
