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 .
David Smith is an amateur mathematician and retired print technician from Bridlington, England, [1] who is best known for his discoveries related to aperiodic monotiles that helped to solve the einstein problem. [2] [3]
In physics, the special theory of relativity, or special relativity for short, is a scientific theory of the relationship between space and time.In Albert Einstein's 1905 paper, On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies, the theory is presented as being based on just two postulates: [p 1] [1] [2]
Norton lists several problems with Einstein's recounting, both historical and scientific: [7] 1. At 16 years old and a student at the Gymnasium in Aarau, Einstein would have had the thought experiment in late 1895 to early 1896.

Roughly speaking, the principle states that a person in a free ...
