 Albert Einstein



Albert Einstein (14 March 1879 - 18 April 1955) was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the theory of relativity, one of the two main pillars of modern physics (alongside quantum mechanics). His works are also known for their influence on the philosophy of science. Einstein's best-known equation is the mass-energy equivalence formula, which has been dubbed "the most famous equation in the world." Einstein received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 "for his services to theoretical physics, and in particular for his discoveries of the law of the photoelectric effect", which was an important step in the development of quantum theory.

 


Early in his career, Einstein argued that Newtonian mechanics was no longer able to reconcile the laws of classical mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field. This prompted him to develop his special theory of relativity while working at the Swiss Patent Office in Bern (1902–1909). However, he later realized that the principle of relativity could also be extended to the gravitational field, and he published a paper on general relativity in 1916 with his theory of gravity.

Einstein continued to research the problems of statistical mechanics and quantum theory, leading to his explaining the theory of particles and molecular motion. Einstein also investigated the thermal content of light which laid the foundation for the photon theory of light. In 1917, he applied the theory of general relativity to model the structure of the universe

Einstein published more than 300 scientific papers and more than 150 non-scientific papers. His intellectual achievements and originality made the word "Einstein" synonymous with "genius". According to Eugene Wigner, "Einstein's understanding was deeper than Jancsi von Neumann's. His mind was sharper and more original than von Neumann's. And that was a very extraordinary thought."

 EXAMPLE OF DESCRIPTION TEXT - HISTORICAL PLACES

Here is an example of a descriptive text, historical building.


Borobudur Temple


Borobudur is a Buddhist temple located in Borobudur, Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. This temple is located approximately 100 km southwest of Semarang, 86 km west of Surakarta, and 40 km northwest of Yogyakarta. This stupa-shaped temple was founded by Mahayana Buddhists around the year 800 AD during the reign of the Syailendra dynasty. Borobudur is the largest Buddhist temple or temple in the world, as well as one of the largest Buddhist monuments in the world

This monument consists of six square terraces on which there are three circular courtyards, the walls are decorated with 2,672 relief panels and originally there are 504 Buddha statues. Borobudur has the most complete and largest collection of Buddhist reliefs in the world. The largest main stupa lies in the center and crowns the building, surrounded by three circular rows of 72 hollow stupas in which a Buddha statue sitting cross-legged in a perfect lotus position with the Dharmachakra mudra (turning the wheel of dharma).

This monument is a model of the universe and was built as a holy place to glorify Buddha as well as function as a place of pilgrimage to guide mankind from the realm of worldly lust to enlightenment and wisdom according to Buddhist teachings. Pilgrims enter via the east side and begin the ritual at the base of the temple by walking in a clockwise circle around this sacred building, continuing up the next steps through the three levels of realm in Buddhist cosmology. The three levels are Kāmadhātu (the realm of lust), Rupadhatu (the realm of form), and Arupadhatu (the realm of intangibility). On the way the pilgrims walk through a series of aisles and stairs seeing no less than 1,460 exquisite relief panels engraved on the walls and balustrades.

According to historical evidence, Borobudur was abandoned in the 14th century as the influence of Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms in Java began to weaken and the influence of Islam began. The world began to realize the existence of this building since it was discovered in 1814 by Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, who at that time served as Governor General English over Java. Since then Borobudur has undergone a series of rescue and restoration efforts (repairs). The largest restoration project was held between 1975 and 1982 under the efforts of the Government of the Republic of Indonesia and UNESCO, then this historic site was included in the list of World Heritage Sites.

Borobudur is still used today as a place of religious pilgrimage; every year Buddhists who come from all over Indonesia and abroad gather at Borobudur to commemorate the Trisuci Waisak. In the world of tourism, Borobudur is the single most visited tourist attraction in Indonesia.
