Einstein manuscript found

Einstein manuscript found

Associated Press in Amsterdam

The original manuscript of a paper Albert Einstein published in 1925 has been found in the archives of Leiden University in the Netherlands.

The paper, Quantum Theory of the Monatomic Ideal Gas, is considered one of Einstein's last breakthroughs.

Carlo Beenakker of the University's Lorentz Institute for Theoretical Physics said a student working on his master's thesis had uncovered the delicate manuscript, written in German in Einstein's distinctive scrawl.

"You can even see Einstein's fingerprints in some places," he said. "We're going to keep it as a reminder of his visits here."
