Einstein's words in the letters demonstrate his fraught relationship with quantum physics, or the theories that describe the world of the very small (atoms and the subatomic particles inside them).

Physics is stuck — and needs another Einstein to revolutionize it, physicist Avi Loeb says Harvard professor Avi Loeb says the potential for a great mind to revolutionize physics is greater than ...

Einstein became the world's most iconic scientist seemingly overnight. Here’s how the physicist rose to fame and what it tells us about how science unfolds in the public eye.

It referred instead to Einstein’s “services to theoretical physics and in particular…his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect”, which was his key contribution to quantum theory. Not that ...

In a newly discovered letter written by Albert Einstein, the renowned physicist suggested there could be a link between the migrations of birds and "unknown" physical processes.
