STOCKHOLM, 19/10/1983: STAR GAZERS: The 1983 Nobel Prize for Physics has been awarded to two American astrophysicists for their explorations of what happens as stars age, consume their nuclear fuel, form new elements and finally collapse. Professor Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar (left) of the University of Chicago was cited for his "studies of the physical processes of importance to the structure and evolution of stars". Born in Lahore, the 73 year old scientist moved to the United States in 1936 and became a U.S. citizen in 1953. Dr. William Fowler (right) was cited by the Nobel Committee in Stockholm for his "extensive work on the experimental study of nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest, as well as carried out theoretical calculations." Fowler, 72, is a professor of physics at the California Institute of Technolgy in Pasadena.Photo: Agency Photo: THE HINDU ARCHIVES
