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 ...

A nearly 400 year-old formula for pi has been spotted in a quantum-mechanics formula for the energy states of the hydrogen atom, according to researchers in the US. Derived by English mathematician ...

Nearly a century after Danish physicist Niels Bohr offered his planet-like model of the hydrogen atom, physicists have created giant, millimeter-sized atoms that resemble it more closely than any ...

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 ...

HOUSTON, July 2 (UPI) -- Nearly a century after Danish physicist Niels Bohr created the first model of the atom, U.S.-led physicists say they've created millimeter-sized atoms. Bohr's theoretical ...

Quantum studies took a massive leap in the middle of the 20th century, with a host of European scientists successfully attempting to unlock the mysteries of the atom. In these endeavours, Danish ...

In nanotechnology, control is key. Control over the arrangements and distances between nanoparticles can allow tailored interaction strengths so that properties can be harnessed in devices such as ...
