    Brownian Motion

    An educational article explaining Brownian motion through the historical observation of randomly moving pollen particles and the mathematical framework developed by Einstein and others to model this phenomenon. The article traces how Robert Brown first observed the effect in the 1830s, Einstein's 1905 theory attributing it to molecular bombardment, and subsequent mathematical formalization, before introducing random walks as a discrete-time model to build intuition for understanding Brownian motion's marginal distribution.
