Bohr went on to make enormous contributions to physics and, like Rutherford, to train a new generation of physicists. But his atomic model remains the best known work of a very long career ...

The Bohr model seemed to work pretty well for atoms with only one electron. But apart from hydrogen, ... Heilbron, J.L., Rutherford–Bohr atom, American Journal of Physics 49, ...

In 1912, Bohr was working for the Nobel laureate J.J. Thompson in England when he was introduced to Ernest Rutherford, whose discovery of the nucleus and development of an atomic model had earned ...

Niels Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom—first published 100 years ago and commemorated in a special issue of Nature—is simple, elegant, revolutionary, and wrong. Well, "wrong" isn't exactly ...

In late 1911, Bohr met Rutherford, who told him of quantum developments discussed at a recent conference in Brussels. ... In Bohr’s model of the hydrogen atom, one electron, ...

Bohr eventually tweaked Rutherford’s model by explaining that the electrons orbiting a positively charged nucleus can jump between energy levels, which stabilizes the atoms. 6.

Here, an illustration of Rutherford's particle scattering device used in his gold foil experiment. (Image credit: BSIP/UIG Via Getty Images) Marsden and Geiger conducted the experiments primarily ...

Even though Rutherford had proven the existence of the nucleus, some issues still remained unanswered, for example how electrons fitted into this new model. In 1913, Niels Bohr revised Rutherford ...

Bohr went on to make enormous contributions to physics and, like Rutherford, to train a new generation of physicists. But his atomic model remains the best known work of a very long career ...

Over the years other investigators refined Bohr's theory, but his bold application of new ideas paved the way for the development of quantum mechanics. Bohr went on to make enormous contributions to ...
