1931148499Burbank CA: Warner Brothers 1931. Vintage photograph of Albert Einstein and his wife Elsa on a Warner Brothers film set February 3 1931. <br/><br/>In early 1931 Einstein and his wife visited several studios and sets to see European directors at work. Here Einstein his wife sitting at his left and cinematographer J. Peverell Marley sit in at a screening for the 1931 French language version of "The Big House" in France titled "Revolte dans la prison." As this is a prison film a number of actors in the photo are wearing prison jackets. <br/><br/>Jacques Feyder was the original director of the French version and Pal Fejos and George W. Hill are credited for it as well.<br/><br/>8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus with light creasing at the corners. <br/><br/>Complete collation details available on request. Warner Brothers unknown books
19314675JHollywood 1931. An unusually large image 11†x 14†taken on January 8 1931 when Einstein and his wife visited Hollywood. The image shows Albert Einstein and Film Mogul Carl Laemmle Senior Founder of Universal Pictures. The photograph is a striking informal image of these two noted Jewish leaders and fellow German emigres chatting on a studio sound stage at Universal City with Mrs. Einstein visible in the background. The photograph is inscribed and signed by Albert Einstein to the head of Universal’s publicity department John LeRoy Johnston who had sent this photograph of Einstein with his boss Laemmle to Einstein to sign. Einstein has written in white ink: “Fur Kohn Johnston - Albert Einsteinâ€. Tipped to the verso is a typed note written in German from Johnston on his printed Universal Pictures stationery to Professor Einstein asking him to inscribe the photograph. Many photograph portraits of Einstein are rather stuffy affairs and a number look like police lineups when he appeared in public and met famous people and dignitaries. This is a striking image of the two men conversing. A historic and excellent photograph and the finest piece from his visit to Hollywood to ever appear on the market. unknown books

1932180272Easton Pennsylvania: Mack Printing Company 1932. Einstein revises his "biggest blunder" First edition journal issue of the paper in which Einstein rejected his 1917 cosmological constant and acknowledged the expansion of the universe. Drawing on Hubble's law Einstein and de Sitter proposed that the constant should be set equal to zero thereby offering a new model of the universe. "In 1917 Einstein had shown how to construct a universe that was static by introducing a 'cosmological constant' into his equations. This matched well with the idea current before Hubble's 1924 measurement of the distances to the nebulae of a small and static 'universe' that was confined to the stars of the Milky Way galaxy. Einstein's idea of a static universe suspended between gravity pulling inward and the cosmological constant making the universe expand was ruled out by Hubble's data" Kirshner pp. 9-12. In Einstein and de Sitter's revised model "the galaxies receded forever but the recession rate declines to zero as time approaches infinity. Some sources indicate that this is the first attempt to describe our universe rather than a mathematical abstraction of universes possible under general relativity. Shortly after Einstein formally renounced his cosmological constant and according to George Gamow called it 'the biggest blunder of my life'" Wenner. Einstein and de Sitter 1872-1934 were close collaborators in the 1920s at Leiden where de Sitter was chair of astronomy and Einstein was a visiting professor. De Sitter is also known for the concepts of De Sitter space and the De Sitter universe. Large octavo. Original brown wrappers covers printed in black.

19451437New York: The New York Times 1945. 1st Edition. First edition of the August 14th 1945 issue of the New York Times complete with "Certificate of Authentication" by the Historic Newspaper Archives. The certificate is #379910; it is signed and includes the seal of the archive. Einstein's article appears in Calaprice's Einstein Almanac No. 244. The certificate will accompany the paper. <br /> <br /> Most assume that Einstein received the Nobel Prize for his theory of relativity and his famous equation E=mc2. However it was for neither. In 1921 Einstein won the Nobel Prize for discovering the photoelectric effect in 1905. This principle states that when sunlight shines on a metal it emits electrons from the surface of the material. The energy from sunlight photons then transfers to the atoms' electrons and knocks them loose. This discovery was so significant that it has influenced the development of many types of technology from electron microscopes to modern solar cells as we know them today. <br /> <br /> ALSO INCLUDED: An article by Lewis headlined: "Atoms Not Occult Einstein Declares; Physicist Explains Nuclear and Solar Energy but Refuses to Discuss Use in Bomb" <br /> <br /> ALSO INCLUDED: New York Time's announces Japan's surrender in 3 line large headline "Japan Decides To Surrender The Tokyo Radio Announces As We Resume Heavy Attacks". CONDITION: Historic Newspaper Archives see above has placed the issue in archival plastic and then into an Archive snap close bag. see photo By any measure this complete issue appears in very good condition.

SCARCE OFFPRINT ISSUE OF AN IMPORTANT EINSTEIN PAPER OF STATISTICAL MECHANICS and a continuation of his remarkable 1905 and 1906 publications on Brownian Motion which not only led to the proof of the existence of the atom but also worked to determine the size of atoms and how many atoms there are in a mole or the molecular weight in grams of a gas.

Offprint from Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft 17 1915. 1 sheet p. 420. 228 x 156 mm. Original printed wrappers. Fine copy.</p> <p>First Edition Offprint Issue. In 1915 Einstein and Dutch physicist Wander Johannes de Haas conducted gyromagnetic experiments leading to the discovery of the Einstein-de Haas effect which corresponds to the mechanical rotation induced in a ferromagnetic cylinder suspended inside a coil when an impulse of electric current is sent through the coil. Einstein was very enthusiastic about the experimental results stating that he and de Haas had "given firm proof of the existence of Ampère's molecular currents" quoted in Pais Subtle is the Lord pp. 245-246. Einstein and de Haas published their results in a paper published earlier in 1915 see Weil 73; the present "Notiz" is a response to a communication from American physicist Samuel Jackson Barnett who had begun performing similar experiments in 1909 and obtained results complementing those of Einstein and de Haas.
