Einsteinian
Of curved spacetime
Einsteinian describes something relating to Albert Einstein or his theories, particularly his revolutionary work on relativity and the nature of space, time, and gravity.
The term often characterizes physics that departs from classical Newtonian mechanics: Einsteinian physics transformed our understanding of the universe.
It may also suggest genius-level intellect or paradigm-shifting insight: an Einsteinian leap of imagination.
