Einstein Refrigerator
It is an absorption refrigerator which makes use of heat for running/fueling a cooling system. The Einstein Refrigerator was patented on
11th November, 1930. The main objective was to make improvements to the home refrigeration technology.
The Special Theory of Relativity
This theory was developed by Albert Einstein in his attempt to reconcile the laws of electromagnetic field with those of classical
mechanics. In 1905, Einstein presented the special theory of relativity in a paper titled ‘On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies’.
General Theory of Relativity
The research that was conducted on the Theory of Relativity was amongst the major accomplishments by Albert Einstein. The postulate
presented by Einstein was the first in the series of explanations about ‘The General Theory of Relativity’.
Photoelectric Effect
In one of his papers on the subject of photoelectric effect, Einstein stated that light is made up of particles. In this paper he also stated
that these light particles (photons) contain energy.
Einstein’s Take on Brownian Motion
In 1827, Robert Brown, a botanist from England had observed a random, agitated movement of pollen grains that were suspended in
water.
Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC)
The Bose-Einstein condensate was predicted by Albert Einstein in 1924. The Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) is an entity formed as a result
of coalescing of separate atoms when they are cooled to a temperature of – 459.67 °F i.e. – 273.15 °C
