Albert Einstein, whose theories on space time and matter helped unravel(解开) the secrets of the atom and of the universe, was chosen as "Person of the Century" by Time Magazine on Sunday. A man whose very name is synonymous with scientific genius, Einstein has come to represent more than...
By 1905 , Einstein had worked in the patent office for three years . During that time , he developed new scientific theories . He soon felt confident enough in his ideas to share them. Einstein sent papers explaining his ideas to the leading German sci...

Quite apart from his great deterministic and continuous theories of special and general relativity, Einstein was one of the most important creators (both discoverer and inventor) of the indeterministic and discrete theory of quantum mechanics. In his 1905 paper on the light-quantum hypothesis and ph...
Albert Einstein is arguably the most influential scientist of the 20th century. His general theory of relativity changed our understanding of space and time, becoming one of the two pillars of modern physics – the other being quantum mechanics. The Germ
The Theory of Relativity is two interlinked theories on space, time, and gravity published by Albert Einstein. He published Special Relativity in 1905 and General Relativity in 1916. Special Relativity Special Relativity is called such because it covers special cases, including super-fast speeds, hug...
Albert Einstein, the brilliant physicist and Nobel laureate, revolutionized our understanding of the universe with his theory of relativity and became a symbol of genius that continues to inspire minds worldwide.

Late in Einstein's life, he engaged in a series of private debates with physicistNiels Bohrabout thevalidity of quantum theory. Bohr's theories held the day, and Einstein later incorporated quantum theory into his own calculations. Albert Einstein and Leo Szilard reenact the signing of their le...
Einstein's Theories Here, working alone in his spare time, he wrote three articles that appeared in 1905, all of them showing tremendous insight. His work on the photoelectric effect and Brownian motion would have been enough to ensure a place among the world`s top physicists, but the most...
