It Was a Very Good Year

Asking the right questions is crucial to scientific work, but this is an
aspect that is woefully neglected when students are introduced to
science.



Albert Einstein submitted six papers to Annalen der Physik during
1905-each of them of crucial importance to physics and to all of
science. In this issue JCE celebrates the centennial of Einstein's annus
mirabilis-miraculous year-with papers about Einstein himself, E = mc2
(article 1, 2), Brownian motion, relativistic effects on the properties
of heavy main-group elements, and quantum dots (article 1, 2).
Einstein Revisited, by Leonard Fine, nicely documents the content of
Einstein's six papers and their implications for chemistry and other
sciences as well as for physics. In a single year Einstein's work
supported the idea that both energy and matter occur in quanta.
