-
his hypothesis was that matter is made of individual particles called atoms
called 'father of modern science' -
his hypothesis was that matter was made up of sphyrical solid masses i n motion
-
he built one of the first gas discharge tubes (cathode ray tube).
-
Johann Hittort invented the cathode ray after J. Pluckers discoveries
-
using a CRT he realized that nearby chemicals glowed. More experiments found very penetrating rays coming from the CRT that were not deflected by a magnetic field. He named them "X-rays".
-
the first x-ray was made from roentgens earlier discoveries
-
described the atom as a ball of positice charge containing a number of electrons
-
used his 'gold foil' experiment to determine that the nucleous of the atom is very denceand had a positice charge. Thus discovering the proton
-
explained the atomic structure of the atom as 'sucessive orbital shells of electrons'
model is known as the bohr planetary model -
he and de broglie identified the electron cloud model as the probable location of moving electrons
-
figured out that you could split the atom
-
discovered a particle within the nucleous that has a mass similar to that of a proton
thus he is credited with discovering the neutron -
used cockroft and waltons theory to make the atomic bomb which was dropped on august 6 in japan
-
Using a CRT he observed that nearby chemicals glowed. Further experiments found very penetrating rays coming from the CRT that were not deflected by a magnetic field. He named them "X-rays".
