Arnold Sommerfeld (1868–1951) was a German theoretical physicist known for his significant contributions to various fields in physics, particularly in atomic and quantum theory. He is best known for his developments in: 1. **Atomic Structure**: Sommerfeld extended Niels Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom by introducing elliptical orbits and additional quantum numbers. This improvement led to a better understanding of atomic spectra and fine structure.
