1 day ago · Beyond relativity, Einstein made significant contributions to quantum mechanics and statistical physics. His equation E=mc², which relates energy (E) to mass (m) and the speed of light (c), remains one of the most recognizable symbols in science. Einstein's insights into the photoelectric effect also laid the foundation for the development of ...
Jun 22, 2024 · Some of the work of Albert Einstein in special relativity is built on the earlier work by Hendrik Lorentz and Henri Poincaré. The theory became essentially complete in 1907, with Hermann Minkowski 's papers on spacetime.
