Shows great promise. In July 1874, at the age of 16, he passed his school leaving examination with distinction but, having talents for a wide variety of subjects particularly music (he played piano and organ extremely well), he still did not have a clear idea of what he should to study at university. Before he began his studies at the University of Munich he discussed the possibility of a musical career with a musician who told him that if he had to ask the question he'd better study something else. He entered the University of Munich on 21 October 1874 and was taught physics by Philipp von Jolly and Wilhelm Beetz, and mathematics by Ludwig Seidel and Gustav Bauer. After taking mostly mathematics classes at the start of his course, he enquired about the prospects of research in physics from Philipp von Jolly, the professor of physics at Munich, and was told that physics was essentially a complete science with little prospect of further developments. Fortunately Planck decided to study physics despite the bleak future for research that was presented to him.

Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck Germanphysicist and 1918 Nobel laureate, who was the originator of the quantum theory. Introduction. Max Planck made many contributions to theoretical physics, but his fame rests primarily on his role as originator of the quantum theory, which won him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1918. This theory revolutionized our understanding of atomic and subatomic processes, just as Albert Einstein's theory of relativity revolutionized our understanding of space and time. Together they constitute the fundamental theories of 20th-century physics. Both have forced man to revise some of his most cherished philosophical beliefs, and both have led to industrial and military applications that affect every aspect of modern life. Early life. Planck recalled that his "original decision to devote myself to science was a direct result of the discovery . . . that the laws of human reasoning coincide with the laws governing the sequences of the impressions we receive from the world about us; that, therefore, pure reasoning can enable man to gain an insight into the mechanism of the [world]. . . ." He deliberately decided, in other words, to become a theoretical physicist at a time when theoretical physics was not yet recognized as a discipline in its own right. But he went further: he concluded that the existence of physical laws presupposes that the "outside world is something independent from man, something absolute, and the quest for the laws which apply to this absolute appeared . . . as the most sublime scientific pursuit in life."

Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck (1858 - 1947) Max Planck initiated the study of quantum mechanics when he announced in 1900 his theoretical research into radiation and absorbsion of a black body. Planck studied at the University of Munich and then at Berlin where his teachers included Helmholtz and Kirchhoff. He returned to Munich and received his doctorate at the age of 21. In 1885 Planck was appointed to a chair in Kiel and, after the death of Kirchhoff, Planck succeeded him in Berlin. While in Berlin Planck did his most brilliant work and delivered outstanding lectures. He studied thermodynamics in particular examining the distribution of energy according to wavelength. By combining the formulas of Wien and Rayleigh, Planck announced in 1900 a formula now known as Planck's radiation formula. Within two months he made a complete theoretical deduction of his formula renouncing classical physics and introducing the quanta of energy. At first he theory met resistance but due to the successful work of Niels Bohr in 1913 calculating positions of spectral lines using the theory, it became generally accepted. Planck took little part in the development of quantum theory, this being left to Paul Dirac and others. Planck took on administrative duties such as Secretary of the Mathematics and Natural Science Section of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. He received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1918.

Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck (23. dubna 1858 – 3. øíjna 1947) Nobelovu cenu získal v roce 1918 za objev elementárních kvant. Nìmecký fyzik Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck se narodil v roce 1858 v rodinì profesora obèanského práva. Planck studoval na univerzitì v Mnichovì matematiku a experimentální fyziku, pozdìji na univerzitì v Berlínì u H. L. F. Helmholtze a G. R. Kirchhoffa. V roce 1885 se stal mimoøádným profesorem na univerzitì v Kielu a v roce 1889 se stal vedoucím katedry teoretické fyziky na univerzitì v Berlínì. Max Planck vypracoval práci o podstatì energie, rozpracoval zákony prùbìhu chemických reakcí, disociace plynù a vlastnosti zøedìných roztokù. Od roku 1896 se soustøedil na výzkum tepelného záøení, který byl v roce 1900 korunován jeho životním úspìchem. Planck nazval nejmenší dávku energie vyzaøovanou tìlesem kvantem energie, které je úmìrné frekvenci záøení a konstantì, pozdìji pojmenované Planckovou. Objev byl zpoèátku pøijat s velkou nedùvìrou, nebo znamenal zásadní zmìnu v pøedstavách klasické fyziky o energii a poprvé se objevila myšlenka nespojitosti mezi vyzaøováním a pohlcováním energie. Teprve práce Alberta Einsteina, který na jeho základì vysvìtlil fotoelektrický efekt a dospìl k pojmu svìtelných kvant, a N. Bohra, který vytvoøil nový model atomu, daly zapravdu jeho teorii. Planckova konstanta se stala nedílnou souèástí všech základních vzorcù, které vyjadøují korpuskulární a vlnové vlastnosti mikroobjektù a zákony jejich pohybu.

Wilhelm Wien vond in 1893 een formule voor de energiedistributie van straling vanuit zwarte lichamen, die gold voor het violette eind van het spectrum en Lord Raleigh en James Jeans produceerden een formule voor het rode gebied, naar niemand kon een formule vinden die gold voor het hele spectrum. Zijn onderzoekingen brachten Planck er in 1900 toe de klassieke Newtoniaanse principes te verwerpen en een heel nieuw principe te introduceren, wat resulteerde in de kwantumtheorie. Hij publiceerde zijn bevindingen in de verhandeling

Max Karl Ernst Ludwig Planck was born in Kiel, Germany, on April 23, 1858, the son of Julius Wilhelm and Emma ( Patzig) Planck. His father was Professor of Constitutional Law in the University of Kiel , and later in Planck studied at the Universities of Munich and Berlin, where his teachers included Kirchhoff and Helmholtz, and received his doctorate of philosophy at Munich in 1879. He was Privatdozent in Munich from 1880 to 1885, then Associate Professor of Theoretical Physics at Kiel until 1889, in which year he succeeded Kirchhoff as Professor at Berlin University, where he remained until his retirement in 1926. Afterwards he became President of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society for the Promotion of Science, a post he held until 1937. The Prussian Academy of Sciences appointed him a member in 1894 and Permanent Secretary in 1912. Planck's earliest work was on the subject of thermodynamics, an interest he acquired from his studies under Kirchhoff, whom he greatly admired, and very considerably from reading R. Clausius' publications. He published papers on entropy, on thermoelectric ity and on the theory of dilute solutions. At the same time also the problems of radiation processes engaged his attention and he showed that these were to be considered as electromagnetic in nature. From these studies he was led to the problem of the distribution of energy in the spectrum of full radiation. Experimental observations on the wavelength distribution of the energy emitted by a black body as a function of temperature were at variance with the predictions of classical physics. Planck was able to deduce the relationship between the ener gy and the frequency of radiation. In a paper published in 1900, he announced his derivation of the relationship: this was based on the revolutionary idea that the energy emitted by a resonator could only take on discrete values or quanta. The energy for a resonator of frequency
