Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find out more about Einstein?

Institute for Advanced Study: FAQs: FAQs
There are many excellent sources of information about Albert Einstein’s work and his extraordinary influence. The American Institute of Physics publishes a catalogue of the extensive collection of Einstein photographs it holds in its New York Library. Online information on Einstein's years in Princeton is available from the Historical Society of Princeton.

What is the Einstein Coat?

KnitList > Frequently Asked Questions
The Einstein Coat is a pattern from Sally Melville's Knitting Experience. It is a coat knit with bulky weight yarn in garter stitch in, as she puts it, "many directions". It's a lovely, simple pattern that produces a great coat. It also has sizes for toddlers to adult men (with some modifications on length and collars for men and women). There's also a baby version called Baby Albert in dk weight yarn.

What's that German at the end of "Einstein's Daughter"?

nields nook faq
The German which David Nields speaks over the end of "Einstein's Daughter" is from a poem by the German Romantic Goethe entitled "Der Erlkönig". Taken from the first stanza, it roughly translates to:

What is the Einstein Easy Bank (EEB)?

Think of the EEB as a checking account. You make a deposit into your bank and each time you roam, use directory assistance, or send a single text message, money is taken from the bank.

Can I get a refund when I leave Einstein Wireless?

A refund will be granted via a check from the office upon your request. You must make a refund request within 60 days of stopping service. Service must be disconnected for a minimum of 2 weeks before the check is sent out.

What is the Einstein Rosen Pudolsky Bridge?

faq
The Einstein-Rosen-Podolsky Bridge (more commonly known as the Einstein-Rosen Bridge) is a tunnel connecting two universes. It was developed by physicists Albert Einstein and Nathan Rosen. They came up with the idea that if an object had strong enough **gravity, it could warp space, creating a tear that would link parallel universes. The only known object in the universe with that kind of force is a **black hole.

Didn't Einstein say that there is no such thing as empty space?

Everything Forever - FAQ Page
Einstein had good reasons for making it clear to everyone that objects within our universe do not simply travel about in a three dimensional empty field of space. Previous to Einstein this was how scientists and others viewed the universe, as objects moving in a spatial void of nothing, partly as a result of Newton's laws of motion, and Einstein wished to repair this misconception.

Why does Einstein have MSTP-specific courses and what is different about them?

MSTP @ AECOM - FAQ_AECOM
The MSTP-specific courses serve several functions and the primary purpose depends on the specific course. The Physiology and the Disease Mechanisms courses teach material that is required for first year medical students but at a more advanced level similar to a graduate school courses. These courses focus on the scientific basis and research issues of the material that is covered.

Which of Einstein's theories is the project trying to test?

Frequently Asked Questions about Gravity Probe B
The Gravity Probe B Relativity Experiment (GP-B) is a joint NASA/Stanford University orbiting astrophysics experiment to test two predictions of Einstein's theory of General Relativity: the geodetic and frame-dragging effects, the second of which has never been experimentally observed. The relativistic sensors for this experiment are four identical, ultra-precise mechanical, electrostatically-suspended vacuum gyroscopes (ESVG) carefully isolated from Newtonian torques.

Well, will you agree that Albert Einstein developed the theory of relativity?

Kitzmiller v. Dover: Day 7, PM: Barbara Forrest
There is a difference -- a theory is well-established science. It is something that's far beyond the stage of initial research. When you propose an idea in science that is in its preliminary stages of research, what you have is a hypothesis. And by the time you call something a theory in science, it is far beyond that stage. It means that it is a very well-confirmed scientific explanation.

Does the Institute have Einstein's papers?

Institute for Advanced Study: FAQs: FAQs
In his will, Einstein left his papers and estate to The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. A project to publish the Einstein Papers has been underway for some years, with the assistance of both the Institute for Advanced Study and Princeton University. The home page for the Einstein Papers Project is now located at the California Institute of Technology. Commercial use of Einstein's image is licensed through the Roger Richman Agency (310) 276-7000, which acts as the U.S.

Where did Madman first appear and who is this Frank Einstein person anyway?

Frank Einstein first appeared almost simultaneously in Creatures Of The Id and Grafik Muzik, I then put a costume on him for the first three-issue series MADMAN and it took off from there.

What causes light to slow down in a bose-einstein condensate?

New Page 1
Light slows down in a Bose-Einstein condensate if it is tuned to the right frequency: the atoms in the condensate respond all together to that light, absorbing it and re-emitting it, slowing it down. This happens to a lesser extent when light passes through glass or any other transparent medium: the light is shifted and Light is always massless - it has energy, but all experiments show that to a very high precision, it has no mass.

Can Einstein MSTP students do their Ph.D. thesis research at other institutions?

MSTP @ AECOM - FAQ_AECOM
Einstein MSTP students must choose a Ph.D. thesis mentor who is a faculty member at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Researchers at Einstein affiliated hospitals have Einstein faculty appointments and are available as Ph.D. mentors. Einstein does not participate in the NIH-Graduate Partnership Program.
