Dirac Equation

Oil on Canvas 2021- SOLD to a private collector - products and prints available.

The equation described the symmetry of atomic particle spins and thereby predicted the existence of antimatter, which was later proven. (If we are to eventually have a Star Trek like future, this is the doorway to it.)

Euler Formula - oil on canvas

Euler Formula

Oil on Canvas 2923

Another of La Traille’s artworks that presents a noted equation, highlighting the aesthetic beauty of its symbols. The celebrated formula of Leonhard Euler, establishes a relationship between trigonometric functions and the complex exponential function, extending the range of functions beyond what is allowed under the real numbers, The formula can simplify equations involving rotations and has applications in electrical engineering. All from an 18th century Swiss mathematician.
