Einstein’s Revolutionary Ideas

Einstein published four papers in 1905 that revolutionized our understanding of the fundamental concepts of space, time, mass, and energy. We draw attention here to an idea in one of the 1905 papers that revolutionizes our understanding of quantum mechanics, but its significance was never understood. We use it to derive classical interpretations of matrix and wave mechanics, resolve the “collapse” problem, and demonstrate that the standard model is deficient in its physical interpretation of Nature.
