Using his model, Bohr was able to calculate the spectral lines — the lines in the continuous spectrum of light — that the hydrogen atoms would absorb. The Bohr model seemed to work pretty well ...

When the laser pulse slammed into the neon atoms in that experiment, it made them explode, stripping away each atom's 10 electrons within 100 femtoseconds (1 femtosecond is 10 −15 seconds).

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 much ...

NCERT has explained how Bohr’s model was too simple to account for the following points- It fails to account for the finer details (doublet, that is two closely spaced lines) of the hydrogen ...

While the speed of light might be different ... equation came onto the scene. Just as the Bohr model failed to reproduce the hydrogen atom's energy levels properly, so did the Schrödinger ...

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 ...

To this end, a German named Arnold Sommerfeld provided a generalisation of Bohr's model - a correction - to let it explain the Zeeman effect in ionized helium (which is a hydrogen atom with one ...

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 ...
