Karl Schwarzschild (German: [kaʁl ˈʃvaʁtsʃɪlt] ⓘ; 9 October 1873 – 11 May 1916) was a German physicist and astronomer.. Schwarzschild provided the first exact solution to the Einstein field equations of general relativity, for the limited case of a single spherical non-rotating mass, which he accomplished in 1915, the same year that Einstein first introduced general relativity.

Ten years later one of the most famous astrophysicists of this century, Karl Schwarzschild, became director of the observatory. In only a few years of work (by 1916 he had died from a chronic illness) he had made fundamental contributions in astrophysics and to General Relativity Theory.

In general relativity, the Oppenheimer–Snyder model is a solution to the Einstein field equations based on the Schwarzschild metric describing the collapse of an object of extreme mass into a black hole. [1] It is named after physicists J. Robert Oppenheimer and Hartland Snyder, who published it in 1939. [2]
Thornton was born Agathe Schwarzschild on 20 November 1910. [2] Her father was the physicist Karl Schwarzschild (1873-1916), her mother was Else Schwarzschild née Rosenbach; and she had two younger brothers, the German-American physicist Martin Schwarzschild (1912-1997), and Alfred Schwarzschild (1914-1944).
Among the late Karl Lagerfeld’s personal convictions was that one’s health is an unseemly, impolite topic for conversation. The book reveals Jondeau to be a warrior also, having scrabbled his ...
The main-belt asteroid was named after physicist and astronomer Karl Schwarzschild (1873–1916), who had died earlier that year. He was director of the observatories in Göttingen and Potsdam , known for his work in photometry, geometrical optics, stellar statistics and theoretical astrophysics, most notably for producing the first exact ...
