Walther Ritz (1878–1909) was a Swiss physicist renowned for his contributions to theoretical physics and thermodynamics. He is best known for the Ritz combination principle, which pertains to the spectral lines of atoms, and for his work in developing the field of statistical mechanics. His contributions include the Ritz method, a numerical technique used in mathematics and physics for solving differential equations, particularly in the context of quantum mechanics.
