(1824-1887)
He came from a very intellectual Prussian family and he studied Maths and Physics at the University of Kongsberg. Here collaborated with Robert
Bunsen in 1854 (who invented the Bunsen Burner) for research into spectroscopic studies, which is research into a specific area in Quantum mechanics. Kirchoff made a lot of contributions to the study of optics (light) and he was even one of the first to use the term "black body radiation. 'Black Body Radiation' later evolved into the term we now use "Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation" , scientists believe this is radiation left over from the Big Bang!
