Auf den Koordinaten N50° 44.101 E007° 05.918 befindet sich das
Max-Planck-Institut für
Mathematik. Das ist für die Lösung des Caches janz ejal; es ist
aber näher als 2 km versteckt. Der Text zum Cache – außer
dieser Satz 
– ist leider nur in Englisch erhältlich. Der Endlokation ist
tagsüber extrem muggelich und das heben der Cache ist deswegen beim
Nacht empfohlen.
The coordinates N50° 44.101 E007° 05.918 are those of the
Max Planck Institute for
Mathematics in Bonn and are quite irrelevant for solving the
puzzle. The cache is hidden within 2 km of them, though. The final
location is extremely bemuggled by day, so it is recommended to go
find the cache at night.
Research
Ignore the first column for now. Notice that some of the cells
in the fourth column already contains something. This means that
what was discovered or invented has multiple values, and you are
searching for the specific one mentioned here.

Apply
Take the numbers you have found for the fourth column and
substitute them for the symbols from the first column used
here:
N50° log2 ((ι - ρθ·√-1) · 2-18) + (689 + μ)⁄1000
placeholder
E007° Var(ω) - (2α - 102)⁄103 + ρ
Help is close by if you are in doubt of the definitions of
log and
Var. If the
North coordinate is giving you trouble, you may want to look
here. The
North coordinate is a rational number
(i.e. you get an exact value), while the East coordinate is
transcendental.
Round the East coordinate to three decimal places using normal
rounding rules. Then use the online geochecker to validate your
solution and get a hint for the final location.
