...Vijay Jain ’11 has found a medium in which he can combine his two loves, chemistry and physics—he researches the effect of magnets on chemicals on the nano scale, looking to see how physical forces can influence chemical reactivity...
Chemistry and physics professor Adam E. Cohen ’01, who heads the lab where Jain works, said that the project was inspired by a phenomenon on a larger scale—birds’ ability to navigate using the magnetic field of the earth. While it is unclear how the birds detect the magnetic field, some scientists have suggested that a biochemical process in their bodies is affected by these forces...
...Jain, who is a chemistry and physics concentrator, is experimenting on the level of individual electrons. He has been attempting to use magnetic nanoparticles to catalyze chemical reactions, thereby increasing the rate at which the reaction occurs. He said that this area of research allowed him to combine disciplines without obvious connections, such as organic chemistry and quantum mechanics...
With the Crimson and the Bearcats tied at 3-3, all eyes turned to the decisive No. 4 singles match. Felton won the first set for Harvard at 6-4. But Arnav Jain bounced back, winning the second set 6-3, and Felton could not recover his momentum, falling in a gritty final...
...Three years ago, a big release meant releasing somewhere between 100 to 200 prints at a fraction of the cost. With films having smaller shelf lives now, companies are trying to capture cash flows in the first few days after their release, says KPMG's entertainment-practice head Rajesh Jain...
