    The Tamil people had some very different customs because of their place of residence and for other reasons. What occupies an indispensable place in them is faith and the worship associated with it. Rather than saying that all this arose at the time of man's birth, it is the experiences of life that give rise to man's faith and worship. When beliefs have persisted for ages, they form a tradition. When all these traditions come together, it forms the ground in the name of culture. During the Sangam age, religious development was only significant. Religion was a way of life, but it did not grow into an institution and dominate society. The wisemen thought of this world, the hereafter, existing life, rebirth, heaven, hell, impermanence, salvation, and the fruits of action. On that day, Gods like Shiva, Thirumal, Murugan, Balaraman, Kotravai, and Thirumagal were introduced. People understood that they were gods, worshipped them with love, and lived. Thus, this article summarizes the worship of the people of Kurinji and their beliefs

    Diabetes is a metabolic disease that affects the ability of the body to process blood glucose, otherwise known as blood sugar. Diabetes occurs when the body produces minimal or no insulin. The diabetes patients check their glycaemic index after each meal and intake medicine to control glycaemic index. Traditionally, glycaemic index estimates the glucometer by acquiring blood sample. In this paper, we propose a noninvasive method to estimate glycaemic index from the pancreas. The magnetic signal from the pancreas acquires with Giant Magneto Resistance (GMR) sensor for glycaemic index estimation. The GMR acquired pancreatic magnetic signal process with Multi Synchro Squeezing Transform (MSST) for feature extraction. The MSST analysis shows significant changes in instantaneous frequency of the pancreas biomagnetic signal before and after meal consumption. The signal statistical parameters help to predict glycaemic index via regression modelling. The proposed method estimates glycaemic index with 88% accuracy

    NONLINEAR OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF METHANE SULPHONYL MORPHOLINE (MSM) SINGLE CRYSTALS GROWN BY CONVENTIONAL AND SANAKARANARAYANAN-RAMASAMY METHOD

    The growth and properties of Methane Sulphonyl Morpholine (MSM) organic single crystal, is reported. MSM crystals were grown by Conventional and Sankaranarayanan-Ramasamy (SR) method. The grown crystals have been characterized for their structural, optical, mechanical, dielectric, laser damage threshold, Photo acoustic, thermal and NLO properties. The results of Conventional and SR method have been compared. It has been observed that the SR method grown crystal have enhanced properties throughout the studies and this observation revealed improved quality of the crystals that give a positive approach towards NLO application

    An investigation of the correlation between the photovoltaic, magnetic and optical properties of CoCr2O4 due to the doping effect of rare-earth La3+ions

    In the new approach, undoped and (0.1,0.3, and 0.5) La3+doped CoCr2O4 samples were prepared using microwave combustion methods. The Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) are used to characterize the material's surface morphology and for phase identification and crystallinity. The samples were also studied with a UV–visible, diffuse reflectance spectrum (DRS) and a (VSM) Vibrating Sample Magnetometer. Spherical particles in agglomeration are visible in the TEM images. The average crystal size is about 15 - 43 nm was observed from the X-ray diffraction pattern results, and it was also confirmed that a cubic spinel structure existed. In addition to providing insight into the divalent and trivalent metal cation distributions at the A and B sites of the chromite lattice, XRD data also revealed divalent and trivalent metal cations distributions. Increased La content results in a decrease in estimated band gap energy. An increasing trend with increasing in La concentration resulting from cation rearrangement. Because La3+replaces some Cr ions in octahedral sites of cobalt chromite, there is a variation in its magnetic parameters
