Einstein manuscripts: More than 110 new documents released
6 March 2019
Dozens of manuscripts belonging to Albert Einstein, many of them unseen in public before, have been unveiled by the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
More than 110 new documents are now on display at the university, marking the 140th anniversary of Einstein's birth.
The collection includes scientific work by the Nobel Prize winner that has never been published or researched.
It was donated by the Crown-Goodman Family Foundation and purchased from a private collector in North Carolina.
The manuscripts contain an appendix to Einstein's article on Unified Theory that had not been seen since 1930. He spent three decades attempting to unify the forces of nature into a single theory.
According to the university, the appendix was thought to be lost.
