| Beskrivelse | Niels Bohr and Albert Einstein in the home of Paul Ehrenfest in Leiden, The Netherlands. |
| Bemærkning | Albert Einstein, (born March 14, 1879, Ulm, Württemberg, Germany—died April 18, 1955, Princeton, New Jersey, U.S.), German-born physicist who developed the special and general theories of relativity and won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1921 for his explanation of the photoelectric effect. Einstein is generally considered one of the most influential physicists of the 20th century.
Paul Ehrenfest (1888 - 1933) was an Austrian mathematician who made important contributions to statistical mechanics and quantum mechanics. Niels Bohr and Ehrenfest began to correspond in 1918, when they met in Leiden. Ehrenfest was unhappy at the disagreement between Bohr and Einstein over quantum mechanics. He brought them together at his home in Leiden in December 1925 in an attempt to have them reach an agreed position. They did not and Ehrenfest was very unhappy that he was forced to take sides with one of his two close friends. He said in 1927, that forced to make a choice, he would have to agree with Bohr.
