  2. Bohr model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr_model

    The Bohr model of the hydrogen atom (Z = 1) or a hydrogen-like ion (Z > 1), where the negatively charged electron confined to an atomic shell encircles a small, positively charged atomic nucleus and where an electron jumps between orbits, is accompanied by an emitted or absorbed amount of electromagnetic energy (hν). [1]

  3. Bohr–Sommerfeld model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr–Sommerfeld_model

    The Bohr–Sommerfeld model (also known as the Sommerfeld model or Bohr–Sommerfeld theory) was an extension of the Bohr model to allow elliptical orbits of electrons around an atomic nucleus. Bohr–Sommerfeld theory is named after Danish physicist Niels Bohr and German physicist Arnold Sommerfeld .

  4. Niels Bohr - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Bohr

    Niels Henrik David Bohr (7 October 1885 – 18 November 1962) was a Danish theoretical physicist who made foundational contributions to understanding atomic structure and quantum theory, for which he received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922. Bohr was also a philosopher and a promoter of scientific research.

  5. History of the periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_periodic_table

    The Bohr model was developed beginning 1913, and championed the idea of electron configurations that determine chemical properties. Bohr proposed that elements in the same group behaved similarly because they have similar electron configurations, and that noble gases had filled valence shells; [102] this forms the basis of the modern octet rule ...

  6. Old quantum theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_quantum_theory

    In the Bohr model, this restriction imposed on circular orbits was enough to determine the energy levels. In three dimensions, a rigid rotator can be described by two angles — θ {\displaystyle \theta } and ϕ {\displaystyle \phi } , where θ {\displaystyle \theta } is the inclination relative to an arbitrarily chosen z -axis while ϕ ...

  7. Hantaro Nagaoka - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hantaro_Nagaoka

    Nagaoka's model was widely discussed by prominent scientists of the day, but a detailed study by George Schott showed the model could not correctly predict atomic spectra. [4]: 38 Nagaoka himself abandoned his proposed model in 1908. Rutherford and Niels Bohr would present the more viable Bohr model in 1913.

    Aage Niels Bohr (Danish: [ˈɔːwə ˈne̝ls ˈpoɐ̯ˀ] ⓘ; 19 June 1922 – 8 September 2009) was a Danish nuclear physicist who shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1975 with Ben Roy Mottelson and James Rainwater "for the discovery of the connection between collective motion and particle motion in atomic nuclei and the development of the theory of the structure of the atomic nucleus based ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_physics

    The Standard Model, based on the Yang–Mills theory [79] groups the electroweak interaction theory and quantum chromodynamics into a structure denoted by the gauge group SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1). The formulation of the unification of the electromagnetic and weak interactions in the standard model is due to Abdus Salam , Steven Weinberg and ...
