Einstein -the birth of a genius

The 54-page file jointly written by engineer Michelle Beasus shows the foundation of Einstein's famous relativity.

A 54 -page manuscript written by Einstein and Swiss engineer Michelle Beso was co -authored at the auction at the auction on November 23, 2021 with a record of US $ 13 million.

According to Christie's auction house, this manuscript set a new record of the most expensive autograph scientific documents in history. The identity of the buyer has not been disclosed, but Christie's pointed out that the auction attracted the interest of buyers from all over the world.

The manuscript was written by Einstein and Beasus from June 1913 to early 1914. At that time, the two of them repeatedly tested the basic equations of relativity.

According to Christie's introduction, 26 pages in the manuscript were written for Einstein; 24 pages were written for Beso; and 3 pages were written by the two. Many pages also have border notes, such as "Stimulation!" (Recording this sentence is German, meaning "Success!") Einstein painted ink next to one of his equations.

Christie's pointed out that the difference in this manuscript is its rarity, because Einstein rarely retains his draft of his writing and communication; on the other hand, Besso retains him and Einstein for his descendants. Many jobs. Thanks to Beisuo, because this manuscript is one of the only drafts that show the broadest theory of general relativity.

Even Einstein's works are still very expensive. In May 2021, Einstein wrote a letter to a competitor, including his famous E = MC2 equation, which was sold for $ 1.2 million at the auction. In 2017, Einstein wrote two brief notes written to a hotel waiter in Tokyo, one of which described his happiness equations-sold for $ 1.5 million.

Albert Einstein (March 14, 1879-April 18, 1955) is a theoretical physicist born in Germany and is considered one of the greatest physicists ever. Einstein is famous for his theory of development, but he has also made important contributions to the development of quantum mechanics theory. The theory of relativity and quantum mechanics have become the two pillars of modern physics. His quality equivalent formula E = MC2 comes from the theory of relativity and is called "the most famous Formula in the world". His work is also known for his influence on scientific philosophy. In 1921, Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics because he discovered the law of photoelectric effects ", which is a key step in the development of quantum theory. His intellectual achievements and originality make people mention" Einstein "this When the word is the word, you will think of the word "genius".

In 1905, this year seemed to be his miracle year. Einstein published four pioneering papers in this year. These papers outlined the theory of photoelectric effects, explained the Brown movement, introduced the theory of narrow sense, and also Prove quality equivalent. Einstein believes that the law of classic mechanics can no longer be coordinated with the law of electromagnetic field, which has prompted him to propose a special theory. Later, he expanded special relativity to the gravitational field; in 1916, he published a paper on general relativity, introducing his gravitational theory. In 1917, he established a cosmic structure model with a broad sense of relativity. After that, he continued to deal with the issue of statistical mechanics and quantum theory, which led to his interpretation of particle theory and molecular movement. He also studied the theory of the theory of light and the quantum theory of radiation, which laid the foundation for the photon theory of light.

In his career in his career, he spent a lot of time in two unsuccessful work. First of all, although he made great contributions to quantum mechanics, he opposed the development of quantum mechanics and opposed nature "not playing dice". Secondly, he tried to design a unified field theory and summarized his geometric gravitational theory as electromagnetics. Therefore, he became more and more isolated in the mainstream of modern physics.

Einstein was born in Germany, moved to Switzerland in 1895, and abandoned German citizenship the following year. In 1897, at the age of 17, he entered the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich to study mathematics and physical teaching diploma courses in 1900. In 1901, he obtained Swiss citizenship and maintained this identity for life. In 1903, he obtained a long -term position at the Swiss Patent Office in Berne. In 1905, he was awarded a doctorate by the University of Zurich. In 1914, Einstein moved to Berlin and joined the Prussian Academy of Sciences and the University of Berlin. In 1917, Einstein became the director of the Institute of Caesar William Physics; he also became a German citizen again, and this time he was Prussia citizen.
