Google celebrates the 107th Birth Anniversary of S. Chandrasekhar with animated doodle embarking his theory of 1.4M.
Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, an Indian lad at the age 19, independently discovered and improved upon the accuracy of the calculation in the year 1929- 1930. The astrophysicist, whose theory of the limit which defines (maximum mass of a stable white dwarf star) later named on his name "The Chandrasekhar Limit". Astrophysicist Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar was the first who have won a Nobel Prize for his theory of the evolution of stars,
'The Chandrasekhar limit' defines the mass limit above which electron degeneracy pressure inside the core which is sufficient to balance the star's gravitational self-attraction. The white dwarf with exceeding the limit mass of 1.4M explodes to collapse such as neutron star or black hole. Those with the ceremony under the limit stays stable as white dwarfs. All known white dwarfs in the universe have been found to conform to this limit.
S. Chandrasekhar is the first laureate to have won a Nobel Prize in Physics for his for his theory of the evolution of stars awarded in the year 1983.
Born bought up and educated in India form the then Madras, S. Chandrasekhar later moved to the US in the year 1936.
Google Doodle honours the 107th Birth Anniversary of the young Indian origin scientist today with the animated doodle which features S. Chandrasekhar research on "The Chandrasekhar Limit" 1.44M. -Window To News
