Il y a 4 jours · Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar (born October 19, 1910, Lahore, India [now in Pakistan]—died August 21, 1995, Chicago, Illinois, U.S.) was an Indian-born American astrophysicist who, with William A. Fowler, won the 1983 Nobel Prize for Physics for key discoveries that led to the currently accepted theory on the later evolutionary stages ...

Il y a 1 jour · It has been 94 years since an Indian won a Nobel Prize in the sciences—Physics, Chemistry, or Medicine—while working in India. V. Raman’s Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930 remains the only accolade of its kind for India. Three additional Indian-origin scientists— Hargovind Khorana in Medicine (1968), Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar in Physics ...

Il y a 4 jours · This term is neglected in the standard Chandrasekhar's treatment where only slower moving particles contribute to the decelerating drag. Here, we demonstrate that dynamical friction produced by the fast moving particles has a significant effect on the evolution of a massive binary within a dark matter spike.
Il y a 4 jours · In 1931, Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar calculated, using special relativity, that a non-rotating body of electron-degenerate matter above a certain limiting mass (now called the Chandrasekhar limit at 1.4 M ☉) has no stable solutions. [23]
