In 1912 Bohr joined Rutherford. He realized that Rutherford's model wasn't quite right. By all rules of classical physics, it should be very unstable. For one thing, the orbiting electrons should ...

In 1913, Niels Bohr revised Rutherford's model by suggesting that the electrons orbited the nucleus in different energy levels or at specific distances from the nucleus. By doing this, he was able ...

In several ways the ‘”Rutherford model of the atom” did not work, but in 1913, when Bohr was 28, he applied to it the strange new concepts of the quantum theory, which bewildered most ...

On the basis of Rutherford's theories, Bohr published his model of atomic structure in 1913, introducing the theory of electrons traveling in orbits around the atom's nucleus, the chemical ...

This "Rutherford model" would form the basis of modern atomic physics and paved the way for the quantum theory later ...
