About this Item

Einstein Lemaitre, Rabi, and many others. EINSTEIN, A. & N. Rosen. "Two-Body Problem in General Relativity Theory", in: "The Physical Review", Vol. 49, Second Series. (X,971 pp), with the Einstein/Rosen on pp 404-405 in the volume. 1936. Lancaster, American Physical Society. The entire volume offered. Bound in an attractive, sturdy cloth. Near-fine condition. [++] And with LEMAITRE, George and M.S. Vallarta, "On the Geomagnetic Analysis of Cosmic Radiation", pp 719-726. [++]This is the response of Einstein and Rosen to Ludwik Silberstein's paper, "Two-Centers Solution of the Gravitational Field Equations, and the Need fir a Reformed Theory of Matter", which appears earlier in the volume (1 February) on pp 268-270, which was a critique and questioning of general relativity, finding he said a contradiction in the Two-Body problem. The Einstein/Rosen is the response and refutation of the Silberstein. [++] "Silberstein thought he had demonstrated that general relativity was problematic. He constructed, for the vacuum field equations for the two-body problem, an exact static solution with two singularity points that lie on the line connecting these two points. The singularities were located at the positions of the mass centers of the two material bodies. Silberstein concluded that this solution was inadmissible physically and contradicted experience. According to his equations the two bodies in his solution were at rest and were not accelerated towards each other; these were nonallowed results and therefore Silberstein thought that Einstein's field equations should be modified together with his general theory of relativity. 3 Before submitting his results as a paper to the Physical Review, Silberstein communicated them to Einstein. This prompted Einstein's remark, in his paper with Rosen in 1935, that matter particles could not be represented as singularities in the field (Einstein and Rosen 1935, 73)"--Galina Weinstein, "Two-Body Problem in General Relativity: A Heuristic Guide in Einstein s Work on the Einstein-Rosen Bridge and EPR Paradox".
