C V Raman: the confident physicist who booked his Nobel trip early
Original: C V Raman: the physicist with a 'Himalayan ego' who went to Stockholm convinced he’d win a Nobel prize
A profile revisits the Indian physicist C V Raman, remembered for his towering self-belief, who travelled to Stockholm convinced he would win the Nobel Prize in Physics for his 1928 discovery of the Raman effect. He was proved right, becoming the first Asian science Nobel laureate in 1930. The story highlights how his legendary ego and certainty remain defining parts of his legacy.
Why now: Renewed interest in Raman's story, likely tied to an anniversary or a new profile of the physicist.
