Meghnad Saha FRS (6 October 1893 – 16 February 1956) was an Indian astrophysicist who helped devise the theory of thermal ionisation. His Saha ionisation equation allowed astronomers to accurately relate the spectral classes of stars to their actual temperatures.

5. Apr. 2024 · Meghnad N. Saha (born Oct. 6, 1893, Seoratali, near Dacca, India—died Feb. 16, 1956, New Delhi) was an Indian astrophysicist noted for his development in 1920 of the thermal ionization equation, which, in the form perfected by the British astrophysicist Edward A. Milne, has remained fundamental in all work on stellar atmospheres.

1. Aug. 2016 · Meghnad Saha (1893–1956) was an Indian physicist who did much of his work in the last decades of British colonial rule. In the 1920s he made important contributions to the theory of thermal ionization and its application to stellar spectra. He would continue to be a leader in modern physics in colonial and postcolonial India and to ...
A biography of Meghnad Saha, the Indian physicist who developed the theory of thermal ionization and the Saha equations. The book covers his scientific achievements, his role in building scientific institutions, and his political activities in India.
Saha is justly regarded as one of the founders of theoretical astrophysics. Examination of his life and work is a rewarding exercise from various points of view: development of modern astronomy; Western science and the non-West; and political and social activism of a leading scientist and educator.
4. Apr. 2017 · A discovery by Indian scientist and statesman Meghnad Saha revealed the nature of stars. bySam Kean. 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.
