Sir Albert Einstein
Einstein received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics 'for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the Photoelectric Effect'.
He developed the theory of General Relativity, effecting a revolution in physics. For this achievement, Einstein is often regarded as the father of modern physics and one of the most prolific intellects in human history.
Einstein realized the inadequacies of Newtonian Mechanics and his Special Theory of Relativity stemmed from an attempt to reconcile the laws of mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field.
He deal with classical problems of statistical mechanics and problems in which they were merged with quantum theory: this led to an explanation of the Brownian Movement of Molecules.
He investigated the thermal properties of light with a low radiation density and his observations laid the foundation of the Photon Theory of Light.
He contributed to statistical mechanics by his development of the quantum theory of a monatomic gas and he has also accomplished valuable work in connection with atomic transition probabilities and relativistic cosmology.
