Albert Einstein’s “annus mirabilis” 1905: In 1905, while working as a patent clerk in Switzerland, Albert Einstein published a series of five papers that would shake the scientific world at its very foundations. Einstein would win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for one of these papers and two others would lay the basis for his theory of relativity and the famous equation E=mc2. Brian Finn, a retired physics teacher from Wellesley High School, will describe these discoveries in two presentations on March 25th and March 31st.
