Physicist Albert (8)

I believe the answer is:

einstein

(Other definitions for einstein that I've seen before include "Mathematical genius of nineties" , "19 [BRAINY] fellow" , "Albert -, Nobel prize scientist" , "Bavarian" , "Albert -, relativity physicist" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
