Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Albert Einstein (1879-1955) Perhaps the most celebrated names in the field of physics, Albert Einstein is synonymous with everything Science and genius. Born in Germany in 1879 to Jewish parents, Einstein moved to Switzerland in 1895. In 1900, he graduated from Zurich's Federal Polytechnic School, and received his PhD from the University of Zurich in 1905. By the time the Nazis came to power in his home country, Germany in 1940, Einstein had regained his German citizenship because of his earlier work in the Prussian Academy of Sciences and the Humboldt University of Berlin. He openly denounced the Nazi ideologies and moved to the United States of America, becoming an American citizen in 1940, and living there until his death in 1955. Albert Einstein became a renowned physicist and scientist who made massive contributions to the field of physics. He developed the theory of relativity, the photoelectric effect, and the formula for a mass-velocity relationship, which states that energy is mass multiplied with the speed of light squared, and is depicted by the most famous equation of all time: E = mc2. Einstein received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921 in recognition of his 'services to theoretical physics'. Einstein was a great lover of music and poetry, and maintained that if not a physicist, he would have been a musician. He worked right till the very end of his life, maintaining that he would prefer to go to his death on his own accord and wouldn't want to unnecessarily prolong life. Einstein died on 17 April, 1955 of an abdominal aneurysm.
