I have recently discovered a mathematical error in Albert Einstein��?s derivation of equation = 2 ( ) (Equation 28 in his paper, k and c are universal constants for ideal gas law and Stefan-Boltzmann law). Because of this mathematical error in the equation, his prediction of (0.420/T) for the order of magnitude of the radiation wavelengths is incorrect. I have derived the correct form of equation [28] given in his original 1904 paper, and calculated the new value for the order of magnitude of the radiation wavelengths as (0.263/T). This new value is based on the solution of the first order differential equation, (2k)= for the value of �?�?. The correct value of the order of magnitude of the radiation wavelengths is 0.263/T. Correcting this mathematical error indeed shows that Einstein��?s prediction for the order of magnitude of the radiation wavelengths is more accurate than he thought during his life time.
