Niels Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom—first published 100 years ago and commemorated in a special issue of Nature—is simple, elegant, revolutionary, and wrong. Well, "wrong" isn't exactly ...

A nearly 400 year-old formula for pi has been spotted in a quantum-mechanics formula for the energy states of the hydrogen atom, according to researchers in the US. Derived by English mathematician ...

Nearly a century after Danish physicist Niels Bohr offered his planet-like model of the hydrogen atom, physicists have created giant, millimeter-sized atoms that resemble it more closely than any ...

HOUSTON, July 2 (UPI) -- Nearly a century after Danish physicist Niels Bohr created the first model of the atom, U.S.-led physicists say they've created millimeter-sized atoms. Bohr's theoretical ...

Quantum studies took a massive leap in the middle of the 20th century, with a host of European scientists successfully attempting to unlock the mysteries of the atom. In these endeavours, Danish ...

Physicists from the Canadian Institute for Measurement Standards are the first to measure a quantum mechanical wave function. And it only took 88 years from the formulation of Schroedinger’s equation!

HOUSTON -- June 30, 2008 -- Nearly a century after Danish physicist Niels Bohr offered his planet-like model of the hydrogen atom, a Rice University-led team of physicists has created giant, ...
