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.
Because Einstein published all four of these papers in a single year, 1905 is called his annus mirabilis (miraculous year). The first paper explained the photoelectric effect , which established the energy of the light quanta E = h f {\displaystyle E=hf} , and was the only specific discovery mentioned in the citation awarding Einstein the 1921 ...
The Digital Einstein Papers [18] is an open-access site for The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein. The site presents volumes 1–16 and will add subsequent volumes in the series roughly two years after original book publication.
The content of his presentation and of the proofs of the paper later published on the presentation are at the heart of the dispute among historians (see below). 25 November: In his last lecture, Einstein submitted the correct field equations. The published paper (Einstein 1915d) appeared on 2 December and did not mention Hilbert
Special relativity was described by Albert Einstein in a paper published on 26 September 1905 titled "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies". [ p 1 ] Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism appeared to be incompatible with Newtonian mechanics , and the Michelson–Morley experiment failed to detect the Earth's motion against the hypothesized ...
Albert Einstein presented the theories of special relativity and general relativity in publications that either contained no formal references to previous literature, or referred only to a small number of his predecessors for fundamental results on which he based his theories, most notably to the work of Henri Poincaré and Hendrik Lorentz for special relativity, and to the work of David ...
Fine article. However: In 1905 Einstein published 21 (!) reviews on thermodynamic topics in "Beiblätter zu den Annalen der Physik". For a list of those articles, see The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein, Volume 2. I think those scientific publications should at least be mentioned in the article. --D.H 16:58, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
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.
