A
Diffraction
B
Scattering
C
Polarization
D
Interference
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Academy of Sciences, has resolved to award the Nobel Prize in Physics for 1930 to Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman – for his work on the scattering of light and for the discovery of the effect named after him. The diffusion of light is an optical phenomenon, which has been known for a long time.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman was an Indian physicist famous for contributions to the physics of light for which he won the Nobel prize in physics in 1930 for his discovery of the Raman effect.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lord Rutherford was instrumental in some of Raman’s most pivotal moments in life. He nominated Raman for the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930, presented him the Hughes Medal as President of the Royal Society in 1930, and recommended him for the position of Director at IISc in 1932.

Detailed explanation-4: -At this institute, Sir C. V. Raman discovered in 1928 that when a beam of coloured light entered a liquid, a fraction of the light scattered by that liquid was of a different color. Raman showed that the nature of this scattered light was dependent on the type of sample present.

Detailed explanation-5: -Compound distribution in tablets. Blend uniformity. High throughput screening. API concentration. Powder content and purity. Raw material verification. Polymorphic forms. Crystallinity. More items
