Meghnad N. Saha, (born Oct. 6, 1893, Seoratali, near Dacca, India—died Feb. 16, 1956, New Delhi), 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 ...

DR MEGHANDA SAHA was the fifth child of Jagannath Saha, a small shopkeeper, and Bhubaneswari Debi. The family lived in modest circumstances, and Saha was able to go to primary school through the kindness of a local partron. He entered the Government Collegiate School on a scholarship when he was eleven, but was soon expelled for participating in a political demonstration; he then attended a private school and, in 1911, enrolled in the Calcutta Presidency College. He received the M.A. in applied mathematics in 1915 and, in the following year, was appointed lecturer in mathematics on the all Indian faculty of the University College of Science, which had just been founded by Sir Astosh Mukherjee.
A personality conflict with the chairman of the mathematics department soon led Saha to transfer to the department of physics, where he taught and did research.
He received the D.Sc. in 1918. In the meantime, he had become interested in astrophysics, and had begun a systematic study of twenty-five years of the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Since he was also teaching thermodynamics on the graduate level (although he had not previously studied the subject in depth), he often considered the relationship between thermodynamics and astrophysics. Thus, when he read J. Eggert’s paper “Über den Dissoziationzustand der Fixsterngase”, published in Physilalische Zeitschrift in 1919, Saha was prepared to begin the work on thermal ionization that won him a permanent place in the history of science.
