It subsequently developed into the largest research center worldwide as a place where scientists could concentrate exclusively on their research subject, and served as a model for similar institutes established in other countries. Within a very short time, the PTR produced extremely important scientific results that cemented its international position at the top, such as Max Planck's radiation law and energy Physical laboratoriesGermanyBerlinHistoryPhysicsResearchGermanyBerlinHistoryPhysical laboratoriesHistory.PhysicsResearchHistory.530530.0943Huebener R.
