“It must be splendid to command millions of people in great national ventures, to lead a hundred thousand to victory in battle.

He made significant contributions to statistical physics and the kinetic theory of gases. Boltzmann is known for his formulation of Boltzmann's distribution law, which is a fundamental concept in statistical physics, and his statistical interpretation of the second law of thermodynamics. more
