Pieter Zeeman (1865-1943) was a Dutch physicist best known for his discovery of the Zeeman Effect, which describes the splitting of spectral lines in the presence of a strong magnetic field. This phenomenon occurs because the energy levels of atomic electrons are affected by the magnetic field, resulting in the observed splitting of light into different frequencies.
