The Correspondence of Michael Faraday, 5
By: James, F. (ed.)
Published by: The Institution of Engineering and Technology

Michael Faraday (1791-1867) was one of the most important men of science in nineteenth century Britain. His discoveries of electro-magnetic rotations (1821) and electro-magnetic induction (1831) laid the foundations of the modern electrical industry. His discovery of the magneto-optical effect and diamagnetism (1845) led him to formulate the field theory of electro-magnetism, which forms one of the cornerstones of modern physics.These and a whole host of other fundamental discoveries in physics and chemistry, together with his lecturing at the Royal Institution, his work for the state (including Trinity House), his religious beliefs and his lack of mathematical ability, make Faraday one of the most fascinating scientific figures ever. more...

Der jugendliche Einstein und Aarau
By: Hunziker, Herbert (ed.)
Published by: Springer

Es darf als gesichert gelten, dass Einstein bereits 1895-1896, whrend er sich an der Aargauischen Kantonsschule auf die Maturittsprfung vorbereitete, erste Ideen zur Relativittstheorie entwickelte. Die Publikation befasst sich eingehend mit der Aarauer Zeit des spter zu Weltruhm gelangten Physikers und bespricht die grundlegenden Ideen seiner Arbeiten von 1905, die diesen Weltruhm begrndeten. Aus dem Inhalt: - Kommentierte Originalabdrucke dreier vom siebzehnjhrigen Einstein verfasster Maturittsprfungsarbeiten - Spezielle Relativittstheorie: Eine bung im berwinden von Denkgewohnheiten -  ber die Herkunft der Speziellen Relativittstheorie - Einsteins Analyse der Brownschen Bewegung - Einstein und die Begrndung der Quantentheorie - Relativittstheorie und der Friedhof der Sterne Beitragsautoren: Domenico Giulini, Herbert Hunziker, Walter Pfeifer, Heinrich Staehelin, Norbert Straumann more...

Die Weltlinie
By: Maalampi, Jukka; Stern, M. (trans.)
Published by: Springer

Das Buch ist eine unterhaltsame und formelfreie Darstellung der modernen Physik vom 19. Jahrhundert bis zur Gegenwart. Das Leben Albert Einsteins und seine wissenschaftlichen Leistungen ziehen sich als roter Faden durch den Text. Der Autor erlAutert zentrale Begriffe und Ergebnisse der modernen Physik in populArwissenschaftlicher Form aus der historischen Perspektive. Der Leser erfAhrt auf amA1/4sante Weise, wie sich die moderne Physik entwickelt hat. Wir begegnen PoincarA(c), Lorentz und Hilbert, Boltzmann und Bohr, Minkowski, Planck, de Broglie, Hubble und Weyl, Gamow, Hahn und Meitner, Kapiza und Landau, Fermi und vielen anderen berA1/4hmten Wissenschaftlern. Was hatte Eddington gegen Chandrasekhar und was hatte Einstein gegen Schwarze LAcher? Warum sollten Raumtouristen, Traumtouristen und Weltraumtraumtouristen nicht am Loch Ness, sondern auf der sicheren Seite eines Schwarzen Loches Urlaub machen? Warum wetterte Pauli gegen Einstein? Stimmt die Sache mit der Atombombenformel? Vermatschte Materie, Urknall und kosmische Hintergrundstrahlung, Gravitationswellen und Doppelpulsare, die kosmologische Konstante und die Expansion des Universums sind weitere Themen, die den Leser in Atem halten und kein geistiges Vakuum aufkommen lassen. more...

Einstein
By: Isaacson, Walter
Published by: SIMON & SCHUSTER

How did his mind work? What made him a genius? Isaacson's biography shows how his scientific imagination sprang from the rebellious nature of his personality. His fascinating story is a testament to the connection between creativity and freedom. Based on newly released personal letters of Einstein, this book explores how an imaginative, impertinent patent clerk -- a struggling father in a difficult marriage who couldn't get a teaching job or a doctorate -- became the mind reader of the creator of the cosmos, the locksmith of the mysteries of the atom and the universe. His success came from questioning conventional wisdom and marveling at mysteries that struck others as mundane. This led him to embrace a morality and politics based on respect for free minds, free spirits, and free individuals. These traits are just as vital for this new century of globalization, in which our success will depend on our creativity, as they were for the beginning of the last century, when Einstein helped usher in the modern age. more...
