AI overview
Gustav Ludwig Hertz was a German physicist who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1925 for discovering how electrons lose energy when colliding with atoms, a finding that helped prove the existence of energy levels within atoms. His work provided crucial experimental evidence supporting the new quantum theory of atomic structure that was being developed in the early 20th century.
