Estelle Sabine

Estelle Sabine was a 19th-century French mathematician and physicist known for her work on acoustics and the study of sound reflection and absorption. She contributed to understanding how sound behaves in different environments, which has applications in architecture and audio technology. Her research helped clarify how materials and surfaces influence sound quality, making her a notable figure in the early development of acoustical science despite the challenges faced by women in science during her time.
