Niels Bohr

Niels Bohr was one of the foremost scientists of modern physics, best known for his substantial contributions to quantum theory and his Nobel Prize-winning research on the structure of atoms. Bohr’s greatest contribution to modern physics was the atomic model.

  • The Bohr model shows the atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons.
  • Bohr was the first to discover that electrons travel in separate orbits around the nucleus. The number of electrons in the outer orbit determines the properties of an element.
  • The chemical element bohrium (Bh), No. 107 on the periodic table of elements, is named.
  • The Nobel Prize in Physics 1922 was awarded to Niels Henrik David Bohr for his services in the investigation of the structure of atoms and the radiation emanating from them.
