Thompson
Thompson came up with the "plum pudding model" for the atom. He was the first scientist to propose that the atom was not the smallest particle but in fact contained small negative particles called electrons. -
Rutherford
Ernest Rutherford fired alpha particles (tiny positively charged particles) at a thin sheet of gold foil and found out that although most alpha particles went straight through the sheet, some were deflected or even reflected back towards their source. -
Bohr
Neils Bohr used evidence from atomic absorption and emission spectra to suggest a more detailed structure of the atom. -
Werner Heisenberg
Werner Heisenberg came up with his uncertainty principle. This stated that we cannot know both the position and momentum of an electron at the same time .
