In Brightwater, a town 20 kilometers southwest of Nelson in Tasman district in the South Island of New Zealand
-
Invented by Alexander Graham Bell, the telephone revolutionized communication all around the world.
-
Also invented by Alexander Graham Bell. This event was another that sparked ideas in scientists
-
Experiementing with the known distance in which electromagnetic waves can be seen, Rutherford broke the previous record. (It was not listed how be achieved such a feat)
-
Discovered by Wilhelm Roentgen, this discovery would have changed the world of science. This event helped Rutherford in discovering other types of radiation
-
Goes to England to get his post graduate degree at the Cavedish Labratory, at the University of Cambridge
-
By studying the absorbtion of Radioactivity through thin sheets of metal foil. Rutherford discovered Beta Rays or Beta Radiation.
-
During the same experiement, Rutherford also discovered Alpha Rays , or Alpha radiation
-
Rutherford finds that radiation emitted by Radium had a very distinctly high penetrating power that had a point of difference from beta rays and alpha rays. Rutherford named this. "Gamma Rays"
-
Rutherford was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his Radiation testing
-
Rutherford joined hands with Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden to carry out Geiger–Marsden experiment which was to find and demonstrate the actual nuclear nature of atoms. This experiment was the inspiration of Rutherfords atomic theory
-
After conducting his experiemnt, Rutherford's Atomic model contained new features of relatively high central charge concentrated into a very small volume in comparison to the rest of the atom and with this central volume also contaning the bulk of the atomic mass of the atom
-
In 1932 Rutherford's atomic theory was prooved by James Chadwick who went on to recieve the Nobel Price in physics
