Let there be more light!
t S t S n N n been finally awarded. From 1910 to 1921, Einstein was nominated 62 times (see table), most of them for the Theory of Relativity (Special4 or General1), but always without success. Light’s nature has fascinated the curiosity of many great scientists. One of them was Albert Einstein, who was able to predict its trajectories across the space-time continuum deformed by gravity. This d...
متن کاملAdvanced information on the Nobel Prize in Physics 2001
At the beginning of the twentieth century, the quantum nature of thermal electromagnetic radiation was a subject of intense interest. This was sparked by Max Planck’s discovery that the spectral distribution of light emerging from a thermal body could be explained only if the radiators emitting the energy occurred in discrete energy states. This induced Albert Einstein to conclude in 1905 that ...
متن کاملIs Karl Landsteiner the Einstein of the biomedical sciences?
If Albert Einstein is the acclaimed peerless genius among the physical scientists of this century, who can claim the equivalent title among the biomedical scientists? The research contributions of 24 Nobelists in medicine (contemporaries of Einstein) who received the Nobel prize between 1912 and 1966 were analyzed. When assessed on three criteria, (a) influence in multiple disciplines, (b) revo...
متن کاملA Collaborative Mechanism for Crowdsourcing Prediction Problems
Machine Learning competitions such as the Netflix Prize have proven reasonably successful as a method of “crowdsourcing” prediction tasks. But these competitions have a number of weaknesses, particularly in the incentive structure they create for the participants. We propose a new approach, called a Crowdsourced Learning Mechanism, in which participants collaboratively “learn” a hypothesis for ...
متن کاملHigher rank Einstein solvmanifolds
In this paper we study the structure of standard Einstein solvmanifolds of arbitrary rank. Also the validity of a variational method for finding standard Einstein solvmanifolds is proved.
