This man extended Wien's law to low frequencies and disproved a prediction of the Rayleigh-Jeans law.
The Kolmogorov forward equation is equivalent to a probability density function formulated by this man and Adriaan Fokker. This man extended Wien's law to low frequencies and disproved a prediction of the Rayleigh-Jeans law. In addition to resolving the ultraviolet catastrophe, this man created a law that raises wavelength to the negative fifth power, his namesake law of radiation, which finds the energy of a blackbody. His constant multiplied by frequency yields the energy of a photon and has a reduced form of h over two pi. For 10 points, name this German recipient of the 1918 Nobel Prize in Physics who developed quantum theory.
