AI overview
Pieter Zeeman was a Dutch physicist who lived from 1865 to 1943 and discovered that magnetic fields affect the light emitted by atoms, a phenomenon now called the Zeeman effect. This discovery was important for understanding how atoms and light interact, and it earned him a share of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1902.
