  2. Five-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-dimensional_space

    In their 1938 paper, Einstein and Bergmann were among the first to introduce the modern viewpoint that a four-dimensional theory, which coincides with Einstein–Maxwell theory at long distances, is derived from a five-dimensional theory with complete symmetry in all five dimensions. They suggested that electromagnetism resulted from a ...

  3. Annus mirabilis papers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annus_Mirabilis_papers

    The Einsteinhaus on the Kramgasse in Bern, Einstein's residence at the time. Most of the papers were written in his apartment on the first floor above the street level. At the time the papers were written, Einstein did not have easy access to a complete set of scientific reference materials, although he did regularly read and contribute reviews to Annalen der Physik.

  4. Solutions of the Einstein field equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solutions_of_the_Einstein...

    The Einstein tensor is built up from the metric tensor and its partial derivatives; thus, given the stress–energy tensor, the Einstein field equations are a system of ten partial differential equations in which the metric tensor can be solved for.

  5. Harmonic coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_coordinates

    The basic regularity theorem concerning the metric in harmonic coordinates is that if the components of the metric are in the Hölder space C k, α when expressed in some coordinate chart, regardless of the smoothnness of the chart itself, then the transition function from that coordinate chart to any harmonic coordinate chart will be in the ...

  6. Quantization of the electromagnetic field - Wikipedia

    Since harmonic oscillator energies are equidistant, the n-fold excited state | ; can be looked upon as a single state containing n particles (sometimes called vibrons) all of energy hν. These particles are bosons. For obvious reason the excitation operator † is called a creation operator.

  7. List of scientific publications by Albert Einstein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_scientific...

    Einstein's scientific publications are listed below in four tables: journal articles, book chapters, books and authorized translations. Each publication is indexed in the first column by its number in the Schilpp bibliography (Albert Einstein: Philosopher–Scientist, pp. 694–730) and by its article number in Einstein's Collected Papers.

  8. Linearized gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linearized_gravity

    The Einstein field equation (EFE) describing the geometry of spacetime is given as = where is the Ricci tensor, is the Ricci scalar, is the energy–momentum tensor, = / is the Einstein gravitational constant, and is the spacetime metric tensor that represents the solutions of the equation.

  9. Neutral third - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_third

    This ratio is the mathematical mediant of the major third 5/4 and the minor third 6/5, and as such, has the property that if harmonic notes of frequency f and (11/9) f are played together, the beat frequency of the 5th harmonic of the lower pitch against the 4th of the upper, i.e. | (/) | = (/), is the same as the beat frequency of the 6th ...
