His work with black-bodies also led him to his (*) 1918 Nobel Prize winning conclusion, that energy could be released only in multiples of a certain constant.
While trying to make light-bulbs glow brighter, this man corrected the Rayleigh-Jeans law, and, in doing so, solved the problem of the ultraviolet catastrophe.
