He was also occupied with quantum theory. He believed that quantum theory was an incomplete representation of real things. Together with Rosen and Boris Podolsky he invented the EPR paradox. I demonstrate that the two-body problem in general relativity was a heuristic guide in Einstein's and collaborators' 1935 work on the Einstein-Rosen bridge and EPR paradox."Also articles by notable physicists on radioactivity, electron mobility, quantum-mechanical measurement, and so on. …
