Dark Matter

  ~Anvi Patil(X th A Abhinav Vidyalay) In the universe, there is about 25% of dark matter and 70% of dark energy but only 5% of it is visible. What is Dark Matter? It is a non-luminous material, which holds two galaxies. This cannot be called a black hole because it does not bend light. Then the question arrives, as it is non-luminous, how did we detect it? As it is not visible, scientists have found indirect methods to find more about it. One such method is by using the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope . Gamma rays are released when two particles of dark matter collide, Fermi telescope can be used to detect this collision. This topic was discovered by Fritz Zwicky in the 1930s, he discovered that galaxies were rotating at a faster rate than usual. A dark region seen in the foreground of a star field. This dark region could be a dark cloud of gases like hydrogen, left over from the formation of our galaxy Dark matter is called ‘dark’ not because it is ‘black’ but because it does not

The World T20 Cricket -Written by- Harsh M (Xth A, Abhinav Vidyalaya) Edited by Harsh M, Soham P Fact checked by Navneet Iyer The origin of the T20 was from an idea given by Stuart Robertson a member of the English Cricket Board (ECB). Before that, there were only tests and fifty over format cricket matches which made the audience bored of it. The English cricket board were having a shortage of sponsorships so that's why T20 cricket was helpful in boosting the popularity of the sport and sponsorships too. It was first played in an English county. Now I am going to tell you about the first official T20 cricket match that took place. The first official T20 match was played on 13 June 2003 between the English counties which was a successful start to T20 matches in cricket.

Let's Run With Our "Strings Attached"!

  Let's Run With Our "Strings Attached"! ~ By Navneet Iyer (Std X , Abhinav Vidyalay) If you are into fitness and love to exercise, then you will have a workout playlist full of high beat songs which help you get in the zone. I bet you that not one of those songs in your playlist will be of the Carnatic genre. Violinist Kumaresh R and veena artist Jayanthi Kumaresh are here to change that with their new album, Run with SA (Strings Attached).  Carnatic music is a genre of music that is usually made up of slow beats and is soft to our ears. It is not suitable for listening when we do intense exercises or running.

They have mixed Carnatic ragas with modern electronic beats to create songs for fitness buffs who love Carnatic music.   They had this idea struck their wonderful minds while walking in a garden when they sa
