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, ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Bohr’s atomic model was utterly revolutionary when it was presented in 1913 but, although it is still taught in schools, it became obsolete decades ago. However, its creator also developed a ...

The Rutherford Building – originally called the Physics Laboratory – was opened in 1900. Its creator was Arthur Schuster, ... Henry Moseley's physical explanation of the different properties of ...
