ICTP in 2006. The Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) is a research center for physical and mathematical sciences, located in Trieste, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Italy. The center operates under a tripartite agreement between the Italian Government, UNESCO, and the International Atomic Energy Agency.
Abdus Salam provided his support to establish the institute and gave the founding directorship of the institute to his pupil student, Riazuddin. [ 3 ] Abdus Salam and Riazuddin founded the first "Theoretical Physics Group (TPG)" in 1968 that gave birth to Pakistan's school of theoretical physics. [ 3 ]
The institution was founded by Nobel laureate in physics Abdus Salam in 1988, originally as the Edward A. Bouchet-ICTP Institute. The name honors Edward Bouchet, widely recognized as the first person of African descent to receive a Ph.D. in physics in the United States. [1] [2] The name was changed in 1998 to honor Salam, [1] who died in 1996. [3]

The National Centre for Physics [nb 1] is a federally funded research institute and national laboratory co-located near Quaid-i-Azam University in Pakistan [1] [2]. Founded in 1999, [1] the site is dedicated for understanding and advancement of the physical sciences and mathematical logic – the site is located in Islamabad in Pakistan.
The Abdus Salam Chair in Physics, named after the Pakistani theoretical physicist and Nobel laureate Abdus Salam is an honorary chair in physics at the university. Starting out as a semi-autonomous institute, it became operational in March 2000 with the efforts of Ishfaq Ahmad, a lifelong friend of Salam.
Together with Abdus Salam, Riccardo Giacconi, George Coyne, and Francis Everitt, they founded the International Center for Relativistic Astrophysics (ICRA) in 1985. [2] Physics Today. The International Center of Relativistic Astrophysics is located in the Department of Physics building at the main Campus of the University of Rome "Sapienza".
