Theodor Kaluza's 1921 paper, "Zum Unitätsproblem der Physik," which was sent to Albert Einstein, is primarily available through university libraries or academic databases like JSTOR and Google Scholar. An English translation and related correspondence between Kaluza and Einstein can be found in the book "Unified Field Theories of More than 4 Dimensions." For those without library access, physical or digital copies can also be purchased from online retailers such as Amazon and Barnes and Noble. This paper is significant for its contributions to the field of physics. Accessing it can enhance understanding of Kaluza's work and its impact on theoretical physics.

Where can I get a copy of the paper Theodor Franz Eduard Kaluza, sent to Albert Einstein.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I assume you are referring to Kaluza's 1921 paper "Zum Unitätsproblem der Physik" which Einstein refereed and finally recommended for publication. I'm not aware of an online version of the paper, at least not in english. An english translation of that paper, and letters to Kaluza from Einstein relating to that paper can be found here: "Unified Field Theories of More than 4 Dimensions" (Singapore: World Scientific, 1983), 427-33; 447-57
 


Dear Terry Giblin,

Thank you for your inquiry about Theodor Franz Eduard Kaluza's paper sent to Albert Einstein. Kaluza's paper, titled "Zum Unitätsproblem in der Physik" (On the Unity Problem in Physics), was published in 1921 in the journal Sitzungsberichte der Preussischen Akademie der Wissenschaften (Proceedings of the Prussian Academy of Sciences). A copy of this paper can be found in most university libraries or can be accessed online through academic databases.

If you do not have access to a university library, you can also find a copy of the paper on websites such as JSTOR or Google Scholar. Additionally, you can purchase a physical or digital copy of the paper from online bookstores such as Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

I hope this information helps. Best of luck in your research.
 
Moderator's note: Spin-off from another thread due to topic change. In the second link referenced, there is a claim about a physical interpretation of frame field. Consider a family of observers whose worldlines fill a region of spacetime. Each of them carries a clock and a set of mutually orthogonal rulers. Each observer points in the (timelike) direction defined by its worldline's tangent at any given event along it. What about the rulers each of them carries ? My interpretation: each...
