lbert Einstein (pronounced
/ˈælbərt ˈaɪnstaɪn/;
German: [ˈalbɐt ˈaɪ̯nʃtaɪ̯n] ( listen); 14 March 1879–18 April 1955) was a
theoretical physicist who is widely regarded as one of the most influential scientists of all time, and the "greatest physicist ever", according to a 1999 poll of leading physicists
[3]. His many contributions to physics include the
special and
general theories of relativity, the founding of
relativistic cosmology, the first
post-Newtonian expansion, explaining the
perihelion advance of Mercury, prediction of the
deflection of light by gravity and
gravitational lensing, the first
fluctuation dissipation theorem which explained the
Brownian movement of molecules, the
photon theory and
wave-particle duality, the
quantum theory of atomic motion in solids, the
zero-point energy concept, the semiclassical version of the
Schrödinger equation, and the quantum theory of a monatomic gas which predicted
Bose–Einstein condensation.
Einstein is best known for his theories of special relativity and general relativity. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics “for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect.”[4]
Einstein published more than 300 scientific and over 150 non-scientific works.[5] He is often regarded as the father of modern physics.[6]
