论爱因斯坦的博士论文

On Einstein's Doctoral Thesis

Norbert Straumann

摘要:

爱因斯坦的论文《分子轨道的新测定》是他1905年发表的五篇著名论文中的第二篇。虽然这是-由于其广泛的实际应用-最引用他的论文,这是不知道比其他四个。演讲的主要目的是展示爱因斯坦在他的论文中到底做了什么。作为一个重要的应用理论结果的粘度和扩散的解决方案,他得到了(消除计算错误后)一个很好的价值阿伏伽德罗数的数据,糖溶解在水中。这与他和普朗克从黑体辐射中得到的值是一致的。在完成“Doktorarbeit”两周后,爱因斯坦提交了他关于布朗运动的论文,其中他论文中的扩散公式起着至关重要的作用。

英文摘要:

Einstein's thesis ``A New Determination of Molecular Dimensions'' was the second of his five celebrated papers in 1905. Although it is -- thanks to its widespread practical applications -- the most quoted of his papers, it is less known than the other four. The main aim of the talk is to show what exactly Einstein did in his dissertation. As an important application of the theoretical results for the viscosity and diffusion of solutions, he got (after eliminating a calculational error) an excellent value for the Avogadro number from data for sugar dissolved in water. This was in agreement with the value he and Planck had obtained from the black-body radiation. Two weeks after he finished the `Doktorarbeit', Einstein submitted his paper on Brownian motion, in which the diffusion formula of his thesis plays a crucial role.
