  2. Mass–energy equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass–energy_equivalence

    [70] [71] American physical chemists Gilbert N. Lewis and Richard C. Tolman used two variations of the formula in 1909: m = ⁠ E / c 2 ⁠ and m 0 = ⁠ E 0 / c 2 ⁠, with E being the relativistic energy (the energy of an object when the object is moving), E 0 is the rest energy (the energy when not moving), m is the relativistic mass (the ...

    Olinto De Pretto (26 April 1857 – 16 March 1921) was an Italian industrialist and geologist from Schio, Vicenza.It is claimed by an [additional citation(s) needed] Italian mathematician, Umberto Bartocci, [1] [2] that De Pretto may have been the first person to derive the energy–mass-equivalence =, generally attributed to Albert Einstein.

    Why Does E=mc²? (And Why Should We Care?) is a 2009 book by the theoretical physicists Brian Cox and Jeff Forshaw . [ 1 ] This was the first full-scale book from Professors Cox and Forshaw.

  6. Energy–momentum relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy–momentum_relation

    If the body is at rest (v = 0), i.e. in its center-of-momentum frame (p = 0), we have E = E 0 and m = m 0; thus the energy–momentum relation and both forms of the mass–energy relation (mentioned above) all become the same. A more general form of relation holds for general relativity.

    for the kinetic energy of an electron. In elaboration of this he published a paper (received September 27, November 1905), in which Einstein showed that when a material body lost energy (either radiation or heat) of amount E, its mass decreased by the amount E/c 2. This led to the famous mass–energy equivalence formula: E = mc 2.
