Q. Nobel laureate Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, is related to which of the following branches of science?
Answer: Astrophysics
Notes: Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar was an Indian-American astrophysicist who made significant contributions to the study of stellar evolution and the structure of stars. He is best known for his work on the theoretical upper limit for the mass of a white dwarf star, which is known as the Chandrasekhar limit. His research showed that a white dwarf star with a mass greater than the Chandrasekhar limit would collapse to form a neutron star or black hole. This discovery helped to explain the behavior of many types of stars and expanded our understanding of the structure and evolution of the universe. Chandrasekhar was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1983 for his work.
