is also acknowledged.We are grateful to @IITKanpur and @ANRFIndia (formerly SERB) for providing funds to build this spectrometer. Funding from BRNS and @isro
We report the mass spectrum of helium droplets and formic acid embedded in helium droplets, as well as the mass-selective infrared spectrum of the formic acid monomer at ultracold temperatures.

Containing scientific excitement of @ForceConference 2024 in a static frame. Awesome backdrop of beautiful Vembanad lake and 85 participants and speakers make this photo a memorable one. Interdisciplinarity unifies multiple disciplines for higher order questions and complex STI challenges.
The Indian flag at the IITK ground looked even more majestic today! Couldn’t help but record this video.

I am delighted to announce that we have completed building India's first helium nanodroplet spectrometer in our lab at the Department of @Chemistry_IITK. This state-of-the-art spectrometer is one of the select few worldwide.@Director_IITK @serbonline
I sincerely thank the @Director_IITK, @IITKanpur and @serbonline for their invaluable support. I acknowledge the dedication of my PhD students and postdocs, who have been tirelessly working to turn our ambitions into reality.
