Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier was born #OTD in 1768. Among his many contributions was the idea, first presented in "Théorie analytique de la chaleur" (1822), that functions on a finite interval (subject to conditions described by Dirichlet) can be expressed as a sum of sine waves.

Passage in German. The translation is: Translation: ON A HEURISTIC POINT OF VIEW CONCERNING THE PRODUCTION AND TRANSFORMATION OF LIGHT by A. Einstein [Annalen der Physik 17 (1905): 132-148] There exists a profound formal difference between the theoretical conceptions physicists have formed about gases and other ponderable bodies, and Maxwell's theory of electromagnetic processes in so-called empty space. While we conceive of the state of a body as being completely determined by the positions and velocities of a very large but nevertheless finite number of atoms and electrons, we use continuous spatial functions to determine the electromagnetic state of a space, so that a finite number of quantities cannot be considered as sufficient for the complete description of the electromagnetic state of a space.

Albert Einstein, age 26, submitted his paper "Concerning an Heuristic Point of View Toward the Emission and Transformation of Light" to Annalen der Physik #OTD in 1905.

It explained the photoelectric effect by asserting the reality of quanta. 🧪 ⚛️ 🎢
