Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I ...

The shortcomings of the Bohr model. The Bohr model seemed to work pretty well for atoms with only one electron. But apart from hydrogen, all other atoms in the periodic table have more, some many ...

Bohr’s Model of an Atom: Students get to know the Bohr’s Model of an Atom. Find out what are its limitations and the postulates it is based on.

“Wallis couldn’t have possibly known [the trend] would show up in the hydrogen atom because no-one knew about the hydrogen atom then,” Friedmann says. She adds that, while the formula could have been ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Niels Bohr's new atomic model in 1913 was path-breaking for physics because it imposed new limits on the way atoms could react with each other. It was also path-breaking for the transition it ...

One hundred years after Niels Bohr published his model of the atom, a special issue of Nature explores its legacy — and how much there is still to learn about atomic structure.
