Einstein himself considered the introduction of the cosmological constant in his 1917 paper founding cosmology as a "blunder". [3] The theory of general relativity predicted an expanding or contracting universe, but Einstein wanted a static universe which is an unchanging three-dimensional sphere, like the surface of a three-dimensional ball in four dimensions.
A hallmark of Albert Einstein's career was his use of visualized thought experiments (German: Gedankenexperiment [1]) as a fundamental tool for understanding physical issues and for elucidating his concepts to others. Einstein's thought experiments took diverse forms. In his youth, he mentally chased beams of light.
[A 56] [6] Albert von Brunn interpreted the book as a pamphlet "of such deplorable impotence as occurring elsewhere only in politics" and "a fallback into the 16th and 17th centuries" and concluded “it can only be hoped that German science will not again be embarrassed by such sad scribblings”, [A 56] and Einstein said, in response to the ...
“The road to success and the road to failure are almost exactly the same.” — Colin R. Davis “Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another stepping stone to ...
"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up." ... To keep your balance, you must keep moving." – Albert Einstein "Life shrinks or ...
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 ...
Arthur Hjalmar Sasse (January 20, 1899 – October 3, 1991) was an American UPI photographer. In 1948, his pictures were exhibited at a show at the Bronx Zoo. [1]He is best known for his photo of Albert Einstein sticking his tongue out.
Albert Einstein and Hendrik Lorentz in 1921 in Leiden. This timeline describes the major developments, both experimental and theoretical, of: Einstein’s special theory of relativity (SR), its predecessors like the theories of luminiferous aether, its early competitors, i.e.: Ritz’s ballistic theory of light,
