  2. Delta ray - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_ray

    This picture shows the four particles that are detectable in a cloud chamber : proton, electron, muon (probably) and alpha. Delta rays are seen associated with the proton track. A delta ray is characterized by very fast electrons produced in quantity by alpha particles or other fast energetic charged particles knocking orbiting electrons out of ...

  3. Arthur Erich Haas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Erich_Haas

    Arthur Erich Haas (April 30, 1884, in Brno – February 20, 1941, in Chicago) was an Austrian physicist, noted for a 1910 paper [1] he submitted in support of his habilitation as Privatdocent at the University of Vienna that outlined a treatment of the hydrogen atom involving quantization of electronic orbitals, thus anticipating the Bohr model (1913) by three years.

  4. Bohr–Sommerfeld model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr–Sommerfeld_model

    This allowed the orbits of the electron to be ellipses instead of circles, and introduced the concept of quantum degeneracy. The theory would have correctly explained the Zeeman effect, except for the issue of electron spin. Sommerfeld's model was much closer to the modern quantum mechanical picture than Bohr's.

  5. Atomic physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_physics

    Bohr Model of the Atom. The Bohr model, proposed by Niels Bohr in 1913, is a revolutionary theory describing the structure of the hydrogen atom. It introduced the idea of quantized orbits for electrons, combining classical and quantum physics. Key Postulates of the Bohr Model. 1.Electrons Move in Circular Orbits:

  7. Klein paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klein_paradox

    The Bohr model of the atom published in 1913 assumed electrons in motion around a compact positive nucleus. An atomic electron obeying classical mechanics in the presence of a positive charged nucleus experiences a Lorentz force: they should radiate energy and accelerate in to the atomic core. The success of the Bohr model in predicting atomic ...

  8. Sommerfeld expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sommerfeld_expansion

    Integrals of this type appear frequently when calculating electronic properties, like the heat capacity, in the free electron model of solids. In these calculations the above integral expresses the expected value of the quantity H ( ε ) {\displaystyle H(\varepsilon )} .

  9. Free electron model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_electron_model

    In solid-state physics, the free electron model is a quantum mechanical model for the behaviour of charge carriers in a metallic solid. It was developed in 1927, [1] principally by Arnold Sommerfeld, who combined the classical Drude model with quantum mechanical Fermi–Dirac statistics and hence it is also known as the Drude–Sommerfeld model.
