🏛️ SC issues notice over TN Law Officer's plea

The Supreme Court issued notice on a plea by a Tamil Nadu Law Officer aiming to expunge adverse remarks made by the Madras High Court. The High Court noted the State appointed officers based on political allegiance, not merit, on April 1, 2026.

🔬 Magnetic fields show heat signatures in graphene flow

A new kinetic simulation study examined how magnetic fields affect charge and heat transport in a graphene Corbino disk. This research was conducted by modeling a homogeneous graphene Corbino disk with inner and outer radii in a 1:5 ratio. The simulations were run using the Boltzmann transport equation and a dual-relaxation-time Callaway model. The findings reveal three signatures distinguishing hydrodynamic from diffusive electron transport under these conditions. These distinct signatures could offer a new way to identify collective electron motion. 🔬
