Walther Gerlach was a prominent German physicist, born on August 1, 1889, in Biebrich, Germany. He is best known for his work on quantum theory, particularly the Stern–Gerlach experiment, which he conducted with Otto Stern in 1922. This pivotal experiment demonstrated the quantized nature of atomic magnetic moments and provided crucial empirical evidence supporting the quantum theory.
