Jayant Vishnu Narlikar is a highly respected Indian astrophysicist known for his collaboration with Sir Fred Hoyle in developing the Hoyle-Narlikar theory. This theory combines Einstein’s theory of relativity with Mach’s principle. Narlikar is currently an emeritus professor at the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA) and has made significant contributions to the field of astrophysics. His research primarily revolves around conformal gravity theory, which suggests that the inertial mass of a particle is affected by the masses of all other particles, with a coupling constant that varies based on the cosmic epoch.
