Rutherford and the Birth of Nuclear Physics

Ғылым және технология

In 1911, Ernest Rutherford interpreted the earlier experimental results of his students, Geiger and Marsden, as showing that at the centre of the atom there was a small, dense nucleus with a positive electric charge. This insight was to fundamentally change our understanding of the structure of the physical world and led to the birth of nuclear physics.

    That was a truly inspiring talk. It took me back to my research days and made me wish I could have had the chance to have worked with the great man and his team.

    Atom must be an identifier for some configuration of electrons, neutrons and protons, to avoid breaking the law of non-contradiction : nothing is it's opposite.

    I would have liked to see the lecturer. Indeed, this is a bit like paint drying, though Rutherford SHOULD be studied. It is too bad because the lecture is a bit like novacaine right between the eyes. And the poor guy is really trying to fill us in, but talk about a "half-lilfe", I feel I've spent it here. Good enough.

    You should check out docudramas, they embellish history but they’ll entertain you more than a presentation!
