Ravindra N. Sudan. Ravindra Nath Sudan (also called Ravi Sudan; June 8, 1931 – January 22, 2009) was an Indian-American electrical engineer and physicist who specialized in plasma physics. He was known for independently discovering the whistler instability in 1963, an instability which causes audible low-frequency radio waves to be emitted in the magnetosphere in the form of whistler waves. He also pioneered the study of the generation and propagation of intense ion beams, and contributed to theories of plasma instabilities and plasma turbulence.

Early life and career 
Sudan studied at Punjab University (Bachelor's degree in 1948) and at the India Institute of Science, where he received his diploma in 1952. In 1955, he received his doctorate in electrical engineering from Imperial College London, where he was a Tata Fellow. He then worked as an engineer at the British Thomson-Houston Company until 1957 and then at Imperial Chemical Industries.

From 1958, he was a scientist at Cornell University (in Simpson Linke's electrical engineering laboratory). His studies of power cut-off devices there led him to plasma physics. In 1959, he became assistant professor there and 1968 professor of electrical engineering and applied physics. He was IBM Professor of Engineering there from 1975 and from 1975 to 1985, the director of the Laboratory for Plasma Studies. He retired as Professor Emeritus in 2001.

In 1984, he founded the Cornell Theory Center with Kenneth G. Wilson and was its deputy director from 1985 to 1987. In 1970–71, he headed the theoretical plasma physics department at the US Naval Research Laboratory. From 1970 to 1973, he was a visiting scientist at the International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste and in 1975 at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. In 1983, he was a Senior Research Fellow of the Fusion Research Institute at the University of Texas at Austin.

Honors and awards 
In 1968, Sudan was elected a fellow of the American Physical Society. In 1989, he received the James Clerk Maxwell Prize for Plasma Physics. In 1994, he received the gold medal from the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences.

International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture. The International Journal of Machine Tools and Manufacture is a peer-reviewed scientific journal dedicated to report the latest advancements in the fundamental understanding of mechanics of processes and machines applied to the manufacture of engineering parts made of metals, composites, ceramics and other structural/functional materials.

History
The journal was founded in 1960 in order to publish papers presented at and stimulated by the spin-off interest arising from the annual International Machine Tool Design & Research Conferences, held alternatively at the University of Birmingham and the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. 

Originally, it was titled, International Journal of Machine Tool Design and Research. Professor S.A. Tobias, as expert in machine tool dynamics at the University of Birmingham, was the founder of the journal and its first editor-in-chief.

Professor T.A. Dean, an expert in metal forming processes, at the University of Birmingham, took over this journal in 1986, when Professor S. A. Tobias died. On taking over, Professor Dean decided to reflect current developments in manufacturing technology by changing the focus of its aims and scope and renamed it International Journal of Machine Tools & Manufacture. Initially the journal was published by Pergamon Press and in 1991 was bought by Elsevier.

In 2018, following Professor Dean's retirement, Professor Dragos Axinte of University of Nottingham, an expert in machining technology, became editor-in-chief.

Indexing
The journal is abstracted and indexed in Engineering Index, Cambridge Scientific Abstracts, Applied Mechanics Reviews, Current Contents, COMPENDEX, Scopus, INSPEC.

According to the Elsevier Journal Insights, the journal has a 2021 impact factor of 10.331, a 5-year impact factor of 9.67, and a CiteScore of 17.0 with 98% percentile.

Cowlesite. Cowlesite is a mineral named after American mineralogist John Cowles. W.S. Wise and Rudy W. Tschernich first described it in material from roadcuts along Neer Road, Goble, Oregon, United States. The description also incorporated data from Superior, Arizona. It most often occurs as small colorless to white spheres in basalt, and is often associated with other zeolites.

Particularly Important Task. Particularly Important Task () is a 1980 Soviet drama film directed by Yevgeny Matveev.

The film tells about the employees of a large aircraft factory, who even in the evacuation did not stop the production of aircraft.

Plot
In 1940, Aviation Factory No. 18 in Voronezh is tasked with rapidly producing the Il-2 attack aircraft. After completing the first plane, Chief Engineer Kirillov departs for Crimea with his wife, leaving their young son in a village with his grandmother. When World War II breaks out, Kirillov rushes back, only to find that the factory, which never ceased production, has been ordered to evacuate its staff and equipment beyond the Volga. As Director Shadurov moves to set up the new factory site, Kirillov and his colleague Lunina oversee the evacuation. When Lunina is killed by enemy forces, Kirillov is falsely detained but is eventually freed by Shadurov, returning to the plant where dedicated workers, including women and children, labor tirelessly to resume production in the barren steppes.

Despite enormous challenges, the factory ramps up production to meet Stalin’s urgent demands, increasing output from one to three Il-2s daily. After Shadurov dies at his post, Kirillov takes his place as director. During the handover of the aircraft to pilots, Kirillov’s wife Masha decides to join the fight as an air gunner, leaving with pilot Gureyev to the front, where they both ultimately perish in combat. Kirillov, burdened by loss but determined, oversees the factory's continued success, contributing to the Soviet victory. In a final, bittersweet moment, he is honored in Moscow and later finds his son in the village, symbolizing hope amid wartime sacrifice.
