Albert Einstein (1879–1955), one of the foremost scientists and public figures of the 20th century, revolutionized our views of time and space, matter and light, gravitation and the universe.
The Einstein Papers Project is engaged in one of the most ambitious scholarly publishing ventures undertaken in the history of science. The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein provides the first complete picture of Einstein’s massive written legacy.
With the publication of its most recent Volume 16, The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein series now covers Einstein's life and work up to his 50th birthday. It presents, as annotated full text, 600 writings by Einstein and 4,000 letters written by and to him. An additional 4,500 documents appear in abstract.
A unique resource: You can access our database of 90,000+ records of all known Einstein manuscripts and correspondence and also search the full text of 2,000 digitized items.
While the Archives updates their site, this link provides temporary access to the database.
DiscoTech, short for "discover Caltech", hosted by Caltech's Admissions group, took place three weeks into Spring Term on April 19th. Designed to welcome admitted students to their possible future home, DiscoTech provides an opportunity for Caltech to showcase how curiosity, creativity, resiliency, and collaboration come to life every day and lead to new discoveries. About 550+ admitted students and guests were on campus that day.
Part of the DiscoTech program includes breakout sessions where prospective first year students and their families can explore labs and projects on campus. The Einstein Papers Project was selected as a site for one of the breakouts. Pictured here, Prof. Diana Buchwald, EPP Director, is seen giving a talk about Einstein and our work at the EPP.
