1952réf. 720911952. Rare original black and white silver gelatin photograph of Albert Einstein. Signed "A Einstein 52." Full-length group portrait showing Albert Einstein standing with Hadassah National President Rebecca Beldner Shulman and others at his Princeton home in June of 1952 during a celebration marking the commencement of building of the Hadassah-Hebrew University Medical Center in Jerusalem. The photograph measures 8 inches by 9.5 inches. Double matted and framed. The entire piece measures 19 inches by 20.5 inches. An exceptional piece. Albert Einstein developed the general theory of relativity one of the two pillars of modern physics alongside quantum mechanics. Einstein's work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science. Einstein is best known in popular culture for his mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc2 which has been dubbed "the world's most famous equation". He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics for his "services to theoretical physics" in particular his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect a pivotal step in the evolution of quantum theory David Bodanis. unknown

1927réf. 1663Berlin: Verlag der Akademie der Wiss 1927. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION OFFPRINT ISSUE IN ORIGINAL PAPER WRAPS VERY GOOD CONDITION. "Einstein and Grommer's work treats the particle as a singularity in the field and attemptss to obtain the equations of motion by imposing conditions on the exterior field in the neighborhood of the singularity" Stachel Einstein from 'B' to'Z' pp. 507. Weil 155. In 1927 Einstein's research "concentrated on a new approach to the problem of the motion of particles in a general field theory" Mehra The Golden Age of Theoretical Physics 997. He presented his work conducted with Jakob Grommer in this report. Einstein and Grommer here show that 'in the case of a pure gravitational field the mechanical behavior of singularities can be derived' a result which in Einstein's opinion 'opened the possibility to obtain on the basis of the field equations a theory of matter characterized as discontinuities in space' ibid 997; Einstein and Grommer 1927. "After Einstein had tried for years to obtain a theory of material particles in a generalized field theory by describing these objects with the help of continuous functions Einstein and Grommer now proposed 'to consider elementary particles as singular points or singular world lines respectively' motivated by the observation 'that both the equations of the pure gravitational field and the equations augmented by Maxwell's electromagnetic field possess simple spherically-symmetric solutions which contain a singularity' ibid. Finally they arrived at the result: In the approximation of the gravitational field obtained by solving linearized equations the equation of motion for a singularity is completely determined - at least in the case of equilibrium - and corresponds to the law of a geodetic line" ibid.

1920réf. 1433Berlin: Julius Springer 1920. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS OF EINSTEIN'S LEIDEN LECTURE EXPLAINING AT LENGTH HIS THEORY OF THE ETHER ALONG WITH THOSE OF LORENTZ & MAXWELL. Very good condition. "Einstein's lecture at the University of Leiden on the occasion of his appointment as a visiting professor summarized his current views on the ether and retrospectively looked at the development of his opinions on the physical properties of space" Calaprice The Einstein Almanac 86. In this lecture Einstein recanted his earlier denial of the ether writing: "Recapitulating we may say that according to the general theory of relativity space is endowed with physical qualities; in this sense therefore there exists an ether. According to the general theory of relativity space without ether is unthinkable; for in such space there not only would be no propagation of light but also no possibility of existence for standards of space and time measuring-rods and clocks nor therefore any space-time intervals in the physical sense. But this ether may not be thought of as endowed with the quality characteristic of ponderable media as consisting of parts which may be tracked through time. The idea of motion may not be applied to it" Einstein Ather 1920. In this lecture Einstein also sought "to reconcile his theory of relativity with his mentor's Lorentz's cherished concept of the aether. Einstein stressed that special relativity took away the last mechanical property of Lorentz's aether: immobility. However he continued that special relativity does not necessarily rule out the aether because the latter can be used to give physical reality to acceleration and rotation. This concept was fully elaborated within general relativity in which physical properties which are partially determined by matter are attributed to space but no substance or state of motion can be attributed to that "aether" aether = curved space-time" Wikipedia.
