Who were known as the quantum trio of Indian science?

The Quantum Trio of Indian Science refers to C. V. Raman, Satyendra Nath Bose, and Meghnad Saha—three pioneering physicists whose work shaped modern physics.

• C. V. Raman discovered the Raman Effect (1928), explaining how light scatters when passing through matter. He won the Nobel Prize in Physics (1930).
• Satyendra Nath Bose developed Bose–Einstein statistics with Albert Einstein, leading to the discovery of bosons, a fundamental class of particles.
• Meghnad Saha formulated the Saha Ionization Equation, essential for understanding stellar atmospheres and astrophysics.

Together, they placed India at the forefront of global scientific research during the early 20th century. Their discoveries connected quantum theory, optics, and astrophysics - fields that continue to influence space research and material science today. Their legacy inspires future generations of scientists and demonstrates India’s rich contribution to theoretical and experimental physics long before independence.
