The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to Albert Einstein: Albert Einstein – German-born theoretical physicist. He developed the theory of relativity, one of the two pillars of modern physics (alongside quantum mechanics). [1] [2]: 274 Einstein's work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science.
Olinto De Pretto (26 April 1857 – 16 March 1921) was an Italian industrialist and geologist from Schio, Vicenza.It is claimed by an [additional citation(s) needed] Italian mathematician, Umberto Bartocci, [1] [2] that De Pretto may have been the first person to derive the energy–mass-equivalence =, generally attributed to Albert Einstein.
The blueshift of a falling photon can be found by assuming it has an equivalent mass based on its frequency E = hf (where h is the Planck constant) along with E = mc 2, a result of special relativity. Such simple derivations ignore the fact that in general relativity the experiment compares clock rates, rather than energies.
The Einstein-de Haas experiment is the only experiment concived, realized and published by Albert Einstein himself. A complete original version of the Einstein-de Haas experimental equipment was donated by Geertruida de Haas-Lorentz , wife of de Haas and daughter of Lorentz, to the Ampère Museum in Lyon France in 1961 where it is currently on ...
"E=MC 2" is a 1986 single by the English band Big Audio Dynamite, released as the second single from their debut studio album, This Is Big Audio Dynamite (1985). The song was the band's first Top 40 hit on the UK Singles Chart , peaking at number 11.
Einstein's secretary Helen Dukas added, "Dr. Einstein didn't mean only the Catholic church, but all churches." [ 74 ] When the convert mentioned that family members had been gassed by the Nazis, Einstein replied that "he also felt guilty—adding that the whole Church, beginning with the Vatican, should feel guilt."
Mass near the M87* black hole is converted into a very energetic astrophysical jet, stretching five thousand light years. In physics, mass–energy equivalence is the relationship between mass and energy in a system's rest frame, where the two quantities differ only by a multiplicative constant and the units of measurement.
The Albert Einstein font was used to reenact the 1932 letter exchange between Einstein and Sigmund Freud (published in 1933 under the title "Why War"). In 2017, at the 85th anniversary of the exchange, Harald Geisler presented the project on Kickstarter in collaboration with the Sigmund Freud Museum (Vienna) and the Albert Einstein Archives. [53]
