Extractions: Chapter 17, pages 541-542. As we have seen, gravity seeks to pull a star in on itself. Although this tendency can be resisted by thermal pressure, the energy which a star can extract from nuclear reactions is a limited resource which seems to be able to stave off the inevitable collapse for only a limited time. For instance, when hydrogen is exhausted, leaving a helium ash, the stellar core loses some of its heat and pressure support, so gravity makes it shrink until it is hot enough to fuse helium into carbon. Thereafter, and indeed fairly promptly, the helium is all converted to carbon - an `ash' of a different sort - so you would logically expect another round of heat loss and contraction. In this way, one after another, you might expect all of the various elements to be formed and exhausted in turn as the process continues. What, then, could

Extractions: Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar October 19 August 21 ) was an Indian American physicist astrophysicist and mathematician . He was born in Lahore British India (now Pakistan ). He attended the Presidency college in Chennai (then, Madras), where he graduated with a degree in physics. He was known to the world as simply "Chandra". It was not just at mathematics that Chandra excelled. As a youth, he had also mastered German, devoured everything from Shakespeare to Hardy , and could read up to 100 pages in an hour 'quite easily'. Chandrasekhar was the nephew of Nobel-prize winning physicist C. V. Raman He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in for his studies on the physical processes important to the structure and evolution of stars , though he was upset that the citation mentioned only his earliest work, seeing this as a denigration of a lifetime's achievement. His lifetime's achievement may be glimpsed in the footnotes to his Nobel lecture http://nobelprize.org/physics/laureates/1983/chandrasekhar-lecture.html

Extractions: When great science minds collide, the insults traded and the bile spilt has been both personal and scandalous. But all too often, the victor's reputation is scrubbed clean by the passage of history. William Hartston rakes up some of the muck that has always been part and parcel of the nature of scientific practice, but that few of us know about. But when Leibniz, a German civil servant, published his work in 1684 and didnt even mention the name of the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics, who had helped him in letters on more than one occasion, blood boiled in the lounges of learned societies and on podiums of lecture halls across Europe, and a schism in science opened up that would hold back British science and thinking, and would not heal for some 140 years.

Extractions: I: White Dwarfs This is the final state for stars that star out with less than 8 solar masses on the main sequence. Following production of helium or carbon in the core, and ejection of a sizable fraction of the main-sequence mass into a planetary nebula, the star shrinks. It can no longer sustain high internal temperatures and pressures, since it has no further energy sources. So it shrinks under its own weight. Electron degeneracy pressure stops the collapse. Once the electrons are pressed as close as they can go, they exert a pressure regardless of the temperature of the star. So it can support itself against further collapse indefinitely. Such an electron degenerate star is called a white dwarf Characteristics of white dwarfs Radius ~0.01 times the current radius of the sun, around 10 km, or about the diameter of the earth. Density ~ 10 times the density of water; a pint of this stuff would weigh 500 tons. Mass - white dwarfs cannot be more massive than 1.4 times the mass of the sunelectron degeneracy pressure can't support more. This maximum mass is called the Chandrasekhar limit , after Nobel-winning astrophysicist Subramanyan Chandrasekhar.

His early education, till twelve was at home by his parents and by private tuition. In 1918, his father was transferred to Madras where the family was permanently established at that time. In Madras, He attended the Hindu High School, Triplicane, during the years 1922-25. His university education (1925-30) was at the Presidency College. He took bachelor's degree, B.Sc. (Hon.), in physics in June 1930. He took my Ph.D. degree at Cambridge in the summer of 1933. During last two years (1928-30) at the Presidency College in Madras, He formed a friendship with Lalitha Doraiswamy, one year junior.
