Ernest Rutherford, 1e Baron Rutherford of Nelson ( Brightwater, 30 augustus 1871 – Cambridge (Verenigd Koninkrijk), 19 oktober 1937) was een Nieuw-Zeelands - Britse natuur- en scheikundige. Hij wordt ook wel de vader van de kernfysica genoemd. Hij pionierde de baantheorie van het atoom door de ontdekking van de verstrooiing van Rutherford .
Vor 2 Tagen · Ernest Rutherford was a New Zealand physicist who came to be regarded as the father of nuclear physics. He is often considered to be the greatest experimentalist since Michael Faraday and is credited with having discovered the concept of radioactive half-life, the radioactive element radon , and even differentiated and named alpha and beta radiation.
Vor 2 Tagen · Between 1902 and 1903 physicists Ernest Rutherford and Frederick Soddy together proposed that each type of radioactive element decays at a unique and unvarying rate. This is the concept of the radioactive half-life. If their theory were correct, it made every such element a potential clock for measuring geologic time: the conversion of one element into another by decay would act like sand ...
Vor einem Tag · Ernest Rutherford. Harriet Brooks (July 2, 1876 – April 17, 1933 [1]) was the first Canadian female nuclear physicist. She is most famous for her research in radioactivity. She discovered atomic recoil, and transmutation of elements in radioactive decay. Ernest Rutherford, who guided her graduate work, regarded her as comparable to Marie ...
Vor 5 Tagen · Niels Bohr and Ernest Rutherford proposed the Rutherford–Bohr model, often simply called the Bohr model, where electrons occupy orbits around the nucleus like the planets around the sun. This explained the features of the emission spectrum of hydrogen.
Vor 4 Tagen · In 1913, Niels Bohr, along with Ernest Rutherford, presented a model of the atom, suggesting it to be a dense nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons. Though this "Bohr model" of the atom is...
