Hertha Sponer (1895–1968) was a pioneering physicist from Germany whose research significantly advanced the early development of quantum mechanics and molecular spectroscopy. She focused on understanding the quantum behaviour of molecules, especially how electrons transition between energy levels in diatomic molecules—a critical step in applying quantum theory to real-world chemical systems. Sponer’s work helped clarifyContinue reading “#5 of our “Women of Quantum” series: Physicist, Professor Hertha Sponer”
