@PhysInHistory This story is not correct. Actually there were several students in the class. There was, however, one class in which Chandra taught only Lee and Yang. Due to a blizzard the others stayed away. See my Empire of the Stars, pp. 214-215. arthurimiller.com/books/empire-o…

In the 1940s, Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar was committed to his teaching role at the University of Chicago, despite being based at the Yerkes Observatory. Each week, he traveled 80 miles to teach a special course attended by only two students. The students were Tsung-Dao Lee and Chen-Ning Yang. They proved their mentor's faith was well-placed when they both won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1957, years before Chandrasekhar received the same honor in 1983. Remarkably, this course went down in history as the only one where every attendee received a Nobel Prize, underscoring the extraordinary impact of Chandrasekhar's dedication and teaching. 📷 AIP Emilio Segrè Visual Archives, Physics Today Collection

The legendary Indian math genius Srinivasa Ramanujan was born 138 years ago today. His familiar image is a passport photo discovered by another Indian scientist who idolised him, the great astrophysicist Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar (Chandra to friends.)

Arthur I Miller is raising funds for the rerun of SYNCHRONICITY on #Crowdfunder! A gripping piece of science theatre that delves into psychology, physics and alchemy ... Even a tenner would help. Help the play come on in October! crowdfunder.co.uk/p/synchronicity
