A mainly photographic record of the life of Albert Einstein is followed by a survey of the advances made in nuclear physics since his time. Stresses the importance of funding to keep pace with modern...
Explains Einstein’s theory of relativity using animation to illustrate the basic concepts. Discusses the philosophical framework behind Einstein’s ideas - the theory that physical reality is independent...
Surveys some of the important concepts in relativity by providing an introduction to the topics of relative velocity, addition of velocities, the constancy of the velocity of light, time dilation, muon...
Examines Einstein’s theoretical prediction that light from a star could be bent when passing close to the sun, and recounts the quantitative confirmation of this prediction during the 1919 eclipse of the...
Einstein used the theory of relativity in conjunction with the universal constancy of the speed of light to unify space and time in a way that provided new descriptions and insights to physical phenomena....
To Newton it was only an isolated fact that the effects of gravity could be mimicked in an accelerating frame but to Einstein this principle of equivalence was the clue to a new theory of space time and...
Deals with time dilation and length contraction in special relativity. The topic is then discussed by way of COSMIC and CERN muon decay and the twin paradox.
One of the predictions of Einstein’s theory of general relativity is that objects that ‘black holes’ may exist in the universe and that through discoveries and techniques of observation one may be able...
