- 1905 was Einstein's Year of Miracles; in that year, he published 5 outstanding papers .. And in one of them he said
- _... radiation energy consists of indivisible quanta of energy ...._
- E = hv
- _..that radiation must, therefore, possess a kind of molecular structure in energy, which of course contradicts Maxwell's theory._
- Wolfgang Pauli later said that this was
- _one of the landmarks in the development of theoretical physics._
