The last three decades have seen enormous progress in our ability to produce new nuclei. Driven by the first construction of powerful heavy-ion and light-ion accelerators and more recently, with the advent of rare isotope beams-also called radioactive ion beams (RIBs), the field of low energy nuclear physics is now vibrant with new possibilities. On one hand, the community now understands the nucleus and its central role in the creation of elements in the universe with more confidence, while on the other, new and surprising discoveries of nuclear halo, new magic numbers and regions of deformation, to name a few, entice us to probe for more. RIBs with their promise of making accessible hitherto unexplored regions of the nuclear chart and enhanced intensity for already synthesized nuclei has clearly emerged as the frontier of low energy nuclear physics. Apart from nuclear physics and astrophysics, RIBs open up new areas in materials research and biology, and provide an alternative route for medical isotope production. Further, the accelerator technology needed for producing these beams has led to the development of particle therapy machines for treatment of cancer and ion beam applications in industry. This article reviews the present scenario of physics and technology of RIBs and discusses VECC's efforts and contribution in this field and future plans vis-a-vis the upcoming ANURIB project.Keywords

Common mental health problems seen among the college students are depression, suicide, anxiety disorder, eating disorder, substance use etc. which may rise in young adulthood. This study was done to assess depression anxiety stress (DAS) among the college students in selected area of Goa. The objectives of the study were a) To assess Depression Anxiety stress (DAS) among the college students based on Depression Anxiety Stress Scale – 42 (DASS- 42). b) To associate the level of Depression, Anxiety and Stress (DASS) score with selected demographic variables of the college students. A quantitative approach was used with descriptive research design. Convenient sampling technique was used. Sample size was 85. The investigator used Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS)-42 tool to assess Depression Anxiety Stress (D, A, S) among students. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The results revealed that 47(55.3%) had normal level of Depression, 20 (23.5%) had moderate level of Depression yet 2 (2.4%) suffered from severe depression, Majority of the subjects 24 (28.2%) has moderate Anxiety, 15 (17.6%) has severe Anxiety and 6 (7%) has very severe Anxiety. Majority of the subjects 12 (14.1%) has moderate Stress, 2 (2.4%) had severe and none had very severe Stress. The finding of the study showed varied levels of depression, anxiety and stress among the college students. So, screening and creating more awareness and intervention strategies may be needed for the better mental health of the students.Keywords
