brief introduction to overcoming difficulties

Einstein's photos (2 photos) Albert Einstein, one of the top ten outstanding physicists in the world, is the pioneer, master and founder of modern physics, and also a famous thinker and philosopher. Einstein graduated from the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich in 19 and became a Swiss citizen. In 195, he received a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Zurich. He once worked in Berne Patent Office, and served as a university professor at Zurich University of Technology and Prague Germany. In 1913, he returned to Germany, served as the director of the Institute of Physics of Emperor William in Berlin and a professor at Humboldt University in Berlin, and was elected as an academician of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. In 1933, persecuted by Nazi regime, he moved to the United States and became a professor at Princeton Institute for Advanced Studies, engaged in theoretical physics research, and became an American citizen in 194. There is a familiar adage: "Everything is relative." But Einstein's theory is not a repetition of this philosophical cliche, but an accurate mathematical expression method. In this method, the scientific measurement is relative. Obviously, the subjective feeling of time and space depends on the observer himself. When Einstein was a child, one day the Kaiser army passed through the streets of Munich, and curious people flocked to the window to cheer. The children yearned for the soldiers' shiny helmets and neat steps, but Einstein hid in fear. He despised and feared these "monsters in war" and asked his mother to take him to the country where he would never become such a monster. In middle school, Einstein gave up his German citizenship, but he didn't apply for Italian citizenship. He wanted to be a world citizen without any attachment ... After the World War II, Einstein tried to build his dream of world peace on the basis of reality and made a series of "peace" speeches in the "enemy country". His thoughts and actions caused him to be killed: a Russian aristocratic female assassin with imperialist ambitions secretly pointed the gun at him; Albert Einstein's name also appeared on the blacklist of German right-wing assassins; Hitler offered a reward of twenty thousand marks for his head. In order to keep himself in harmony with the world, Einstein had to move from Italy to the Netherlands, and from the Netherlands to the United States, and he became an American citizen. He believes that in this country of America, people of all classes can survive in a barely passable friendship. (Excerpted from Einstein's Reflection, No.5-6, Academic Monthly of Applied Writing, 1985) The late 19th century was a period of great changes in physics. Starting from experimental facts, Einstein re-examined the basic concepts of physics and made a fundamental breakthrough in theory. Some of his achievements greatly promoted the development of astronomy. His general theory of relativity has a great influence on astrophysics, especially theoretical astrophysics. Albert Einstein

Einstein's special theory of relativity successfully reveals the relationship between energy and mass, adheres to the determinism position of the quantum theory interpretation of "God rolls the dice" (vector sum of particle vibration and translation), and solves the long-standing problem of star energy source. In recent years, more and more high-energy physical phenomena have been discovered, and special relativity has become a basic theoretical tool to explain this phenomenon. His general theory of relativity also solved a mystery in astronomy for many years-the precession of Mercury's perihelion (which Newton's gravity theory can't explain), and deduced the phenomenon of light bending that was later verified, which became the theoretical basis of many astronomical concepts later. On October 4th, 29, the Nobel Foundation selected Einstein, the winner of the 1921 physics prize, as one of the three most respected winners in the history of the Nobel Prize for more than 1 years. (The other two are Martin Luther King, winner of the 1964 Peace Prize, and Mother Teresa, winner of the 1979 Peace Prize. )

On November 18th, 1881, Einstein's sister Maya was born in Munich. In 1884, Einstein became fascinated with the pocket compass. In 1885, Einstein began to learn the violin. In 1886, Einstein, 5 years old, and his 3-year-old sister < P > Tan were studying in Munich Public School. Study Jewish canon at home. In 1888, Einstein entered Louis Polder High School. Continue to receive religious education at school and accept the bar mitzvah ceremony. Friedman is the instructor. In 1889, under the guidance of medical college student Talme, he read popular scientific books and philosophical works. In 1891, I taught myself Euclidean geometry, and I felt enthusiastic about it. At the same time, I began to teach myself advanced mathematics. Einstein began to doubt Euclid's hypothesis. In 1892, I began to read the works of Immanuel Kant. In 1894, the Einstein family moved to Italy. In 1895, I finished calculus by myself. In the same year, Einstein failed in the entrance examination of Swiss Institute of Technology (German acronym ETH). In 1896, he was awarded the diploma of Arau Middle School. On October 29th, Einstein moved to Zurich and studied at Swiss Institute of Technology. Einstein

On October 19th, 1899, Einstein formally applied for Swiss citizenship. Einstein graduated from swiss federal institute of technology zurich in August 19; In December, he finished his thesis "Inference from Capillary Phenomenon", which was published in the Journal of Physics in Leipzig the following year and incorporated into Swiss nationality. On March 21, 191, he obtained Swiss nationality. In May-July of this year, I finished my thesis on the thermodynamic theory of potential difference. On June 16th, 192, he was employed by the Patent Office in Bern, Switzerland. In 193, he married mileva Malik, a college classmate. They had their first child before they got married. In September, 194, he changed from a probationer in the Patent Office to a formal third-class technician. In March 195, quantum theory was published, and the light quantum hypothesis was put forward, which solved the problem of photoelectric effect. In April, he presented his thesis "A New Method for Determining Molecular Size" to the University of Zurich, and obtained his doctorate. In May, he completed the paper "On Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies", independently and completely put forward the principle of relativity in a narrow sense, and initiated a new era of physics. In April 196, he was promoted to the second-class technician of the Patent Office. In November, I finished the paper on the specific heat of solids, which is the first paper on the quantum theory of solids.

Einstein in Life (8 photos) In 197, he was promoted to be a first-class technician in the Patent Office. In October 198, he also served as an extra lecturer at the University of Berne.

In April 1914, Einstein accepted the invitation of the German scientific community and moved to Berlin. In August, World War I broke out. Although he lived in the birthplace of war and was surrounded by war advocates, he resolutely showed his anti-war attitude. In September, Einstein participated in the launching of the anti-war group "New Motherland Alliance". Although this organization was declared illegal and a large number of members were arrested and persecuted and went underground, Einstein still resolutely participated in the secret activities of this organization. In October, under the manipulation and instigation of militarists, the scientific and cultural circles in Germany issued the "Declaration of Civilized World", defending the war of aggression launched by Germany and advocating that Germany is above everything else, and the whole world should accept the "true German spirit". Ninety-three people signed the Declaration, all of whom were prestigious scientists, artists and priests in Germany at that time. Even nernst, Roentgen, ostwald and Planck signed it. When asked for Einstein's autograph, he flatly refused, but at the same time, he resolutely signed his name on the anti-war "Letter to Europeans". This move shocked the whole world. In November 1915, the complete form of gravity equation of general relativity was put forward, and the motion of Mercury's perihelion was successfully explained. Einstein

in March, 1916, he finished his concluding thesis "The Basis of General Relativity". In May, the hypothesis that the universe is finite and unbounded was put forward. In August, he completed Quantum Theory of Radiation, summarized the development of quantum theory and put forward the theory of stimulated radiation. In 1917, after the victory of the Soviet socialist revolution led by Lenin, Einstein enthusiastically supported this great revolution, praised it as a great social experiment that would be decisive for the whole world, and said, "I respect Lenin because he is a person who has the spirit of complete self-sacrifice and devoted himself wholeheartedly to realizing social justice. I don't think his method is practical, but one thing is certain: people like him are defenders and reconstructors of human conscience. " In 1921, Einstein won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on photoelectric effect, which promoted the development of quantum mechanics. Visit Prague and Vienna in January.
