Max Planck Introduces Quantum Theory Principles

Max Planck presented a groundbreaking theoretical derivation of his black-body radiation law to the German Physical Society in Berlin. His work proposed the idea that energy is quantized, challenging classical physics and laying foundational principles for quantum mechanics. This presentation marked a significant shift in the understanding of thermal radiation, introducing Planck's constant and promoting further scientific exploration into matter and energy interactions.
