Einsteins Discoveries

• Theory of Relativity
• Statistical Mechanics
• Quantum Theory
• Habilitation Thesis
• Tensor Calculus

4
Explanation of Discoveries

• Theory of Relativity-describes the motion of
  particles moving at close to the speed of light
• Statistical Mechanics-models a system in terms of
  the average behavior of the large numbers of
  atoms and molecules making up the system

5
More Explanations

• Quantum Theory-the branch of mathematical physics
  treating atomic and subatomic systems and their
  interaction with radiation in terms of observable
  quantities
• Habilitation Thesis-the extra post-doctoral
  qualification needed to lecture at a German
  university

6
One More Explanation

• Tensors-are "multidimensional boxes of numbers".
  So, for example, a 0-tensor is a scalar, a
  1-tensor is a vector, a 2-tensor is a matrix, etc
