www.sisd.net1. The nucleus of the atom is a dense mass of positively charged particles. 2. The electrons orbit the nucleus 3. A problem raised was: Why are the negatively charged particles not attracted by the positively charged nucleus 4. Rutherford stated that the atom was like a mini solar system and that the electrons orbited the nucleus in a wide orbit.

www.lcps.orgHISTORY OF THE ATOM Cathode Ray Tube •The cathode ray tube (CRT) is a vacuum tube containing a gas at (low pressure) with an electron emitter and a fluorescent screen used to view images. It has a means to accelerate and deflect the electron beam onto the fluorescent screen to create the images .
The History of - Energy
www.energy.govThe word atom comes from the Greek word,atomos, meaning indivis-ible. Scientists in the 18th and 19th centuries revised the concept based on their experiments. By 1900, physicists knew the atom contains large quantities of energy. British physicist Ernest Rutherford was called the father of nuclear science because of his contribution to

The second fundamental atomic particle, the proton, was “identified by Rutherford in 1919.” The Danish physicist Neils Bohr combined Rutherford’s atomic concepts with Max Planck’s quantum theory to produce the first modern model of the atom. In 1913, Bohr demonstrated

www.nrc.govMay 01, 2008 · history:: * In 1979, at the Three Mile Island near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, the cooling system of a nuclear reactor failed. Radiation escaped, forcing tens of thousands of people to run away. Fortunately the problem was solved minutes before a total meltdown would have occurred, and there were no deaths.
