  Einstein (unit) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An einstein is a unit used in irradiance and in photochemistry.
One einstein is one mole of photons, regardless of their frequency.
The einstein is used in studies of photosynthesis since the light requirement for the production of a given quantity of oxygen is a fixed number of photons (about nine einsteins per mole of oxygen formed), regardless of the frequency of the light.

 The Reality Program: Chapter 7
Retrospective appreciations of Einstein's 1905 paper on "special" relativity have sometimes described it as the product of "pure thought."[2] That is, it seemed as though Einstein had considered certain paradoxes that had been puzzling physicists, had given the matter some thought, and had written down a new model of the universe.
Einstein's Nobel Prize was awarded in 1921 for another of his little papers of 1905 -- a paper which solidified the quantum interpretation of the odd step-like behavior of light which had been noted by Planck in 1900.
Einstein thereby began the "dualistic" interpretation of light, whereby it was sometimes best compared to a wave, and sometimes to a particle -- a concept which became the basis for most of the quantum mechanical interpretations which followed.

 Natural Length Contraction Mechanism Due to Kinetic Energy
Einstein's theory of relativity predicts length contraction, but does not explain how matter can be physically contracted or why this phenomenon is not reversible when the mass in the moving frame is accelerated back to the original frame.
Einstein did not realize that simple logic and the principle of mass-energy conservation leads to a modification of the reference units in the moving frame that compensates exactly for the real physical changes taking place when masses are accelerated.
Einstein's principle of invariance is an error, because we cannot claim a real invariance in physics when the atoms in different frames have a different Bohr radius, a different electron mass and also emit different frequencies.

 Unit 56
Albert Einstein analyzed this problem and concluded that Maxwell was right and Newton's laws were an approximation that holds in the limit of velocities small compared to the speed of light.
Einstein resolved this apparent paradox by considering space and time as one entity, which we will call spacetime and by using a different interval rule to find the displacement between two events.
In SI units, m is in kilograms, c in meters per second and E is in Joules.

As a second fundamental hypothesis, Einstein assumed that the speed of light remained constant in all frames of reference, as required by Maxwell's theory.
In this theory the interactions of bodies, which heretofore had been ascribed to gravitational forces, are explained as the influence of bodies on the geometry of space-time (four-dimensional space, a mathematical abstraction, having the three dimensions from Euclidean space and time as the fourth dimension).
The general theory of relativity accounted for the previously unexplained deviations in the orbital motion of the planets as calculated by Newtonian mechanics, and predicted the bending of starlight in the vicinity of a massive body such as the sun.

Therefore, the more a unit of mass curves space toward itself the greater will be its inertia in falling toward another unit of mass with space likewise curved toward its own mass.
Now, through Einstein's relativity, one can approach an explanation of what weight really is. But, on still closer examination, even Einstein fails to provide a complete answer.
Einstein's general relativity explains that space curves toward the center of mass in proportion to that mass.

 Zeno of Elea [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
If it is composed of indivisible units, these must have magnitude, and we are faced with the contradiction of a magnitude which cannot be divided.
In that case it is a continuous divisible unit.
Now each of these parts may again be regarded as one, and as such is an indivisible unit; and again each part may be regarded as many, in which case it falls into further parts; and this alternating process may go on for ever.
