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.

In 1913, Niels Bohr revised Rutherford's model by suggesting that the electrons ... However, there was still a difference between the atomic number of the atom and the atomic mass.

Acceptance of this model grew after it was modified with quantum theory by Niels Bohr. For his work with radiation and the atomic nucleus, Rutherford received the 1908 Nobel Prize in chemistry.

This atomic model has changed over time ... Most of the mass of an atom is found in the nucleus. 1913 Bohr In-depth work on Rutherford's model showed it had limitations. The electrons should ...

This "Rutherford model" would form the basis of modern atomic physics and paved the way for the quantum theory later developed by Niels Bohr. In 1917, Rutherford made another monumental ...
