popular figures. His high-minded concepts are more than most adults can handle‚ yet his popularity seems to rise with each passing year. His continuing importance to the world of physics is staggering given the recent advancements in the world of quantum physics. Yet Einstein the man is a much a different person than Einstein the scientist. It is Einstein the man that we see here‚ in this wonderful book by Maree Ferguson Delano. Delano‚ who also wrote The Photogbiography of Thomas Alva Edison‚ returns

made intuitive sense. And then quantum mechanics came‚ the absolutely baffling branch of physics exploring the very smallest types of matter. The study of quantum mechanics led to some truly astounding conclusions. For instance‚ scientists found that electrons behave both as waves and as particles‚ and the mere act of observing them changes the way they behave. Revelations like this one simply defied logic‚ prompting Einstein to declare "the more success the quantum theory has‚ the sillier it looks

Bohr completed his atomic model he then won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his model. Bohr got right back to work after he won the Nobel Prize and started to research atomic nuclei and learning more about them and also settled some differences in quantum physics. While he was doing this Bohr went back to his homeland over in Europe during the time World War II started. After Germany was taking over Europe he was able to flee to Sweden

In 1928‚ Raman spectroscopy was introduced by Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman an Indian Physicist‚ together with K. S. Krishnan. For this tremendous contribution in Physics‚ Sir C. V. Raman got Nobel prize in 1930. Write something about Raman signal‚ where does it come from? What are the implications of Raman? Raman is the inelastic scattering of light. The meaning of inelastic scattering is observable from the figure below. When an electron is excited by photons of applied light‚ it jumps from
