Enschedé, Haarlem/NetherlandsOn the obverse of the 5 Lirot (Bank of Israel series III) banknote appears Albert Einstein (1879-1955), the German-born theoretical physicist, universally recognized as one of the greatest scientists of all time. He is best known for his theory of relativity and specifically mass-energy equivalence, E = mc2. Einstein received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect." Einstein's many contributions to physics include his special theory of relativity, which reconciled mechanics with electromagnetism, and his general theory of relativity, which extended the principle of relativity to non-uniform motion, creating a new theory of gravitation. His other contributions include relativistic cosmology, capillary action, critical opalescence, classical problems of statistical mechanics and their application to quantum theory, an explanation of the Brownian movement of molecules, atomic transition probabilities, the quantum theory of a monatomic gas, thermal properties of light with low radiation density (which laid the foundation for the photon theory), a theory of radiation including stimulated emission, the conception of a unified field theory, and the geometrization of physics. Time Magazine named him "Person of the 20th Century" in 1999. Einstein was a Zionist and served on the Board of Governors of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In his will, Einstein bequeathed literary rights to his writings, as well as the royalties from use of his image, to the Hebrew University, where many of his original documents are held in the Albert Einstein Archives. In 1952, after the death of Chaim Weizmann, Israel's first president, Einstein was asked to be the nation's second president, an offer he declined.Albert Einstein's contributions to nuclear science are reflected on the banknote's reverse, which depicts the nuclear research reactor at Nahal Soreq.Combine shipping
