dc.description.abstract | It is provided here the original German and an English translation of a passage from a 1924 essay by Max Planck that reports a prediction of the end of theoretical physics expressed to him by one of his esteemed physics professors, Philipp von Jolly, while Planck was attending the University of Munich as a student in 1878. The decades to come, which saw the revolutions of relativity and quantum mechanics, proved the prognostication to be misguided. | en_US |
