Max Planck (1858–1947) was a German theoretical physicist regarded as the founder of quantum theory. Born on April 23, 1858, in Kiel, Germany, he studied physics at the University of Berlin and earned his doctorate in 1879. In 1900, while investigating blackbody radiation, Planck proposed that energy is emitted in discrete units called quanta, introducing the concept of the Planck constant (h). This hypothesis resolved the ultraviolet catastrophe and laid the foundation for quantum mechanics, influencing the work of subsequent physicists including Einstein, Bohr, and Heisenberg. Planck held professorships at several German universities and served as president of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society (later the Max Planck Society) from 1930 to 1937. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1918 for his discovery of energy quanta. Planck remained active in physics until his death in 1947, despite the challenges of living through both World Wars in Germany.
