I don't subscribe to the magazine, and there doesn't seem to be much of substance in front of the paywall. Could you perhaps provide a summary of his argument?Originally Posted by mathman
The main point of the author was the development of E=mc^2. Before 1905 there were papers with E=3/4mc^2. The author described them in detail and speculated whether there was a problem at high energies with Einstein's formula.I don't subscribe to the magazine, and there doesn't seem to be much of substance in front of the paywall.
