所以，密立根的文章根本不像我们现在认为的那样，是对光的量子理论的实验验证。

So Millikan's paper is not at all, as we would now expect, an experimental proof of the quantum theory of light.

最终，密立根重新描述了关于他自己重要实验的复杂历史，使其符合了现在物理教科书中的简单故事。

In the end, Millikan re-imagined the complex personal history of his splendid experiment to fit the simple story told in so many of our physics textbooks.

最后一件讽刺的事情发生在1950年，82岁的密立根发表了他的自传，其中第九章的标题为“光子存在的实验验证—爱因斯坦光电方程”“the Experimental Proof of the Existence of the photon—einsteins Photoelectric Equation .”。

One final irony: in 1950, at age 82, Millikan published his Autobiography, with Chapter 9 entitled simply "the Experimental Proof of the Existence of the Photon — Einstein's Photoelectric Equation."
