Question

achivements of albert Einstein

Answer 1

1905 was his most fruitful year, the result of the publication of four scientific articles on the photoelectric effect, Brownian motion, the theory of special relativity and the mass-energy equivalence (E = mc²). The prize was worth the Nobel Prize in Physics of the year 1921, the second, the degree of doctor and the last two would consecrate him, over time, as the greatest scientist of the 20th century.


In 1907, he began his work in the extension and generalization of the theory of relativity to all coordinate systems. Starting in 1919, he began to be internationally recognized, obtaining prizes from various scientific societies, such as the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921.


During World War I, he publicly condemned Germany's participation in it. At the end of the war, he continued his pacifist and Zionist activities, which provoked numerous attacks by German anti-Zionist and right-wing groups. In 1933 he left for the United States. There he obtained work at the Institute for Higher Studies in Princeton, New Jersey. In 1939 with other physicists they sent a letter to President Franklin D. Roosevelt asking him to create a research program on chain reactions. In 1945, when the bomb was known to exist, Einstein wrote to the president again to convince him not to use the nuclear weapon.
