Indian connection of Albert Einstein

As a lexicographer of Albert Einstein,^1–3 I have a specific comment on the feature by Rajasekharan Nair K, entitled ‘Albert Einstein and Jacob Chandy’.⁴

Apart from meeting with the poet Rabindranath Tagore in Berlin, Einstein also received correspondence from Satyendra Nath Bose (1894–1974).⁵ Their link is eponymised in physics with the terms, Bose–Einstein condensation, Bose–Einstein particles (Bosons) and Bose–Einstein statistics. For more details on this link, I suggest Nobelist Max Delbruck’s 1980 article which appeared in the Journal of Chemical Education.⁶
