-
Niels Henrick David Bohr was born in Copenhagen, Denmark.
-
Bohr begins working with Ernest Rutherford, the researcher credited with the discovery of the atomic nucleus and the father of Nuclear Physics.
-
Bohr creates a viable model of atomic structure by expanding on Rutherford's discovery of the atomic nucleus with aspects of Planck's Quantum Theory.
-
Bohr is awarded the Nobel Prize for creating the first viable model of the atomic structure. This helps create the foundation for the study of quantum mechanics, subatomic particles, and other revolutionary studies in physics.
-
Bohr introduces concepts from "Quantum Theoretical Re-Interpretation of Kinematic and Mechanical Relations", a paper written by Werner Karl Heisenberg, to further refine his model of the atomic structure.
-
Bohr dies of congestive heart failure in Copenhagen, Denmark.
