Abstract. The name of Professor Meghnad Saha would always remain associated with the theory of thermal ionization and its application to the interpretation of stellar spectra in terms of the physical conditions prevailing in the stellar atmospheres. The theory had all the simplicity and inevitableness which usually characterize a fundamental ...
6 de oct. de 2023 · Meghnad Saha, born on 6 October 1893, has even been called the “Darwin of astronomy” by the international press. Born into a ‘lower’ caste family, he went on to become a polymath, politician, and pioneer scientist who made several seminal contributions to the world of physics. Some even consider his legacy as close to Newton’s.

4 de abr. de 2017 · A Forgotten Star. A discovery by Indian scientist and statesman Meghnad Saha revealed the nature of stars. While astronomers had been sorting stars by spectra since the mid-1800s, in 1920 Indian polymath Meghnad Saha was the first to recognize that a star’s spectrum indicated its temperature. Like species, sciences evolve.
Ecuación de Saha. La ecuación de ionización de Saha, también conocida como ecuación de Saha-Langmuir, es una expresión que relaciona el estado de ionización de un elemento con la temperatura y la presión. Fue obtenida por vez primera en 1920 por el astrofísico indio Meghnad Saha (1893–1956) y más tarde (1923) por Irving Langmuir.
