German-born theoretical physicist (1879-1955), who developed the Theory of Relativity, one of the pillars of modern physics. Page with a formula, related to the famous Theory of Relativity, signed by Einstein below. Formula is written by another hand, probably one of Einstein´s students at Princeton, New Jersey, and - according to our own consultations with an expert in the area - is connected with the General Theory of Relativity, defining the way to calculate the acceleration acquired by a mass considering the interaction/attraction exerted by other surrounding masses. The first part of the equation would refer to the mass according to Newton´s physics, while the rest contain the corrections introduced by the Theory of Relativity. Boldly signed by Einstein below with the same pen. Card is 9 x 6 inches, some color fading over the borders, but overall in excellent condition.  ALSO INCLUDED is an unsigned photo of Einstein in front of a blackboard, a modern print, size is 8.25 x 10.6 inches, in excellent condition - a perfect photo to frame -  if desired - with this amazing autograph item.
