  2. Franck–Hertz experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franck–Hertz_experiment

    Ordinary light sources like incandescent light bulbs emit light at all wavelengths. Bohr had calculated the wavelengths emitted by hydrogen very accurately. [20] The fundamental assumption of the Bohr model concerns the possible binding energies of an electron to the nucleus of an atom.

  3. Copenhagen interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copenhagen_interpretation

    According to Bohr's complementarity principle, light is neither a wave nor a stream of particles. A particular experiment can demonstrate particle behavior (passing through a definite slit) or wave behavior (interference), but not both at the same time. [72] The same experiment has been performed for light, electrons, atoms, and molecules.

  4. James Franck - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Franck

    His original intention was to continue his research into the fluorescence of vapours and liquids, but under Bohr's influence they began to take an interest in biological aspects of these reactions, particularly photosynthesis, the process by which plants use light to convert carbon dioxide and water into more organic compounds. Biological ...

  5. Niels Bohr - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niels_Bohr

    Bohr was also a philosopher and a promoter of scientific research. Bohr developed the Bohr model of the atom, in which he proposed that energy levels of electrons are discrete and that the electrons revolve in stable orbits around the atomic nucleus but can jump from one energy level (or orbit) to another. Although the Bohr model has been ...

  6. Emerson effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emerson_effect

    The Emerson effect is the increase in the rate of photosynthesis after chloroplasts are exposed to light of wavelength less than 680 nm (deep red spectrum) and more than 680 nm (far red spectrum). When simultaneously exposed to light of both wavelengths, the rate of photosynthesis is higher than the sum of the red light and far red light ...

  7. Photosynthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

    By studying purple sulfur bacteria and green bacteria, he was the first to demonstrate that photosynthesis is a light-dependent redox reaction in which hydrogen reduces (donates its atoms as electrons and protons to) carbon dioxide. Robert Emerson discovered two light reactions by testing plant productivity using different wavelengths of light ...

  8. Timeline of quantum mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_quantum_mechanics

    Niels Bohr obtains theoretically the value of the electron's magnetic dipole moment μ B as a consequence of his atom model; Johannes Stark and Antonino Lo Surdo independently discover the shifting and splitting of the spectral lines of atoms and molecules due to the presence of the light source in an external static electric field.

  9. Evolution of photosynthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_photosynthesis

    The evolution of photosynthesis refers to the origin and subsequent evolution of photosynthesis, the process by which light energy is used to assemble sugars from carbon dioxide and a hydrogen and electron source such as water. It is believed that the pigments used for photosynthesis initially were used for protection from the harmful effects ...
