The item was about the interview of the S. Chandrasekhar. In the interview, he mentioned that he did not consider himself a glamorous mathematician. He emphasized the importance of providing opportunities to young people and not manipulating them. He also discussed research issues in Indian universities and the importance of research as a prime qualification for university faculty, rather than simply being a teaching body..
Indian Institute of AstrophysicsThis item was about the discovery that was made by the Nobel physicists S Chandrasekhar and William A. Flower. It outlines the award was presented to Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar and Flower for their distinguished work in astrophysics. The research involved the theoretical studies of the physical processes important to the structure and evolution of the stars by S Chandrashekar and the theoretical and experimental studies of the nuclear reactions of matter in the formation of chemical elements in the universe by William A. Flower. The prize was shared equally between the two of them. The article also mentions that the announcement of the award was made on S Chandrashekar's birthday, which is considered as a birthday gift to him for his Nobel work.
Indian Institute of AstrophysicsThis item was about the investigation conducted by Society, they have found a possible relationship between C V Raman and S Chandrasekhar. According to their findings, S Chandrasekhar, who recently won the Nobel Prize, was a nephew of Sir C V Raman. The investigation also revealed that every member of Sir Raman's family has made some contribution to society in different ways.
Indian Institute of AstrophysicsThis item was about the research for the nobel prize of the year 1983. The Nobel prize was awarded to Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar and Flower for their work in astrophysics. S Chandrashekar's theoretical studies on the physical processes that are important for the structure and evolution of stars, and William A. Flower's theoretical and experimental studies on the nuclear reactions of matter in the formation of chemical elements in the universe, were both recognized. The prize was shared equally between the two of them.
Indian Institute of AstrophysicsThis item was about the work history, life style, and research work of nobel prize winner S chandrashekar. John Tierney covered an inspiring story about S Chandrashekar, who won the Nobel Prize in 1983 for astrophysics. The article highlights that after surviving a series of heart attacks and undergoing open-heart surgery, Chandrashekar continued to work on his study of black holes with great passion and dedication. At the age of 71, when most scientists retire, he worked 12 hours a day to complete his project. Tierney's article emphasizes the simplicity and dedication of Chandrashekar towards his work, despite all the obstacles he faced.
Indian Institute of AstrophysicsThis item was about the death of the nobel astronaut S. Chandrasekhar.On August 21, 1985, the world mourned the loss of Nobel laureate and astronaut S. Chandrasekhar. He passed away at the age of 86 while preparing for a lecture, a testament to his lifelong dedication to his work. Chandrasekhar began his career by earning an honors degree in physics at Presidency College Madras before pursuing his doctorate at Cambridge University. In 1983, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for his groundbreaking work in astrophysics, which he shared with William A. Fowler.
Indian Institute of AstrophysicsThis item was about the Nobel physicist S Chandrasekhar. It outlines about the Chandrasekhar's daily routine involves a regular schedule of studying, reading, and contemplating problems.
