Albert Einstein 2015

Albert Einstein non appartiene a quel gruppo di studiosi che si chiudono nella «torre d’avorio» del loro lavoro di ricerca, immemori del mondo che li circonda. Al contrario, è sempre stato un osservatore acuto e critico delle tendenze e dei problemi del suo tempo. In questo senso, i discorsi, gli articoli, le lettere e gli appelli raccolti in questo volume rispecchiano non solo le posizioni scientifiche e filosofiche dell’autore, ma anche gli atteggiamenti politico-sociali. Un documento straordinario che ci restituisce nella sua interezza e profondità il pensiero di uno dei più grandi scienziati del nostro tempo.

2015 marks the 60th anniversary of Albert Einstein’s death, and the subsequent disappearance of his brain. After his brain was stolen by the doctor trusted to perform his autopsy, the priceless specimen was examined by scientists whose goal was to try and determine what made this seemingly normal man change the face of science and define the word genius. This documentary will follow the path of Einstein’s physical brain and all the places it traveled, while simultaneously telling the story of Einstein the man.

Originaltext und ausführlicher historischer Kommentar von Claus Kiefer
Die Arbeit von Einstein, Podolsky und Rosen (EPR) aus dem Jahr 1935 gehört zu den Klassikern der modernen Physik. In ihr wird zum ersten Mal die zentrale Eigenschaft der Quantentheorie thematisiert: die Verschränkung. Im allgemeinen sind Systeme in der Natur miteinander verschränkt, das heißt, sie besitzen nur einen gemeinsamen, nicht aufteilbaren, Zustand.
