The Bohr model is a neat but quite imperfect depiction of the inner workings of an atom before things got too muddled up by quantum principles.

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.

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 ...

When Bohr arrived, several men in the laboratory were working on implications of the nuclear model of the atom that Rutherford had introduced in 1911.

But instead of solving the Bohr-model problem, Hagen applied the “variational principle” – a technique usually reserved for approximating quantum-mechanical systems that cannot be solved analytically ...

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.

Nearly a century after Danish physicist Niels Bohr offered his planet-like model of the hydrogen atom, a Rice University-led team of physicists has created giant, millimeter-sized atoms that ...

It is 100 years since Niels Bohr developed the model of the atom that paved the way for many other inventions such as the transistor and the Laser ...

Picture an atom, and you may imagine spherical electrons orbiting a nucleus packed with particles like neutrons. Only certain orbits - quantum levels - are possible. It's a simplistic model, yet ...
