  2. Plum pudding model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plum_pudding_model

    The plum pudding model was the first scientific model of the atom to describe an internal structure. It was first proposed by J. J. Thomson in 1904 following his discovery of the electron in 1897, and was rendered obsolete by Ernest Rutherford's discovery of the atomic nucleus in 1911. The model tried to account for two properties of atoms then ...

    So long as the alpha particle does not penetrate the sphere, there is no practical difference between a sphere of charge and a point charge. q g = positive charge of the gold atom = 79 q e = 1.26 × 10 −17 C; q a = charge of the alpha particle = 2 q e = 3.20 × 10 −19 C; R = radius of the gold atom = 1.44 × 10 −10 m

    The Thomson problem is a natural consequence of J. J. Thomson's plum pudding model in the absence of its uniform positive background charge. [ 12 ] "No fact discovered about the atom can be trivial, nor fail to accelerate the progress of physical science, for the greater part of natural philosophy is the outcome of the structure and mechanism ...

  6. Rutherford model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutherford_model

    The plum pudding model of J. J. Thomson also had rings of orbiting electrons. The Rutherford paper suggested that the central charge of an atom might be "proportional" to its atomic mass in hydrogen mass units u (roughly 1/2 of it, in Rutherford's model). For gold, this mass number is 197 (not then known to great accuracy) and was therefore ...

  8. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutherford_backscattering...

    Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) is an analytical technique used in materials science.Sometimes referred to as high-energy ion scattering (HEIS) spectrometry, RBS is used to determine the structure and composition of materials by measuring the backscattering of a beam of high energy ions (typically protons or alpha particles) impinging on a sample.
