Nobel Prize in Physics 1902 Honoured Lorentz and Zeeman
Original: Nobel Prize in Physics 1902
The 1902 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded jointly to Hendrik Lorentz and Pieter Zeeman of the Netherlands for their research into the influence of magnetism upon radiation phenomena. The discovery of the Zeeman effect confirmed how magnetic fields affect light emitted by atoms, laying groundwork for later quantum theory and relativity research.
