Particle Physics

A Quick Tour

Page 2: Particle Physics A Quick Tour. Models of the Atom Thomson – Plum Pudding Why? Known that negative charges can be removed from atom. Problem: just a random

Models of the Atom Thomson – Plum Pudding

Why? Known that negative charges can be removed from atom.

Problem: just a random guess

Rutherford – Solar System Why? Scattering showed hard core. Problem: electrons should spiral into nucleus in

~10-11 sec.

Bohr – fixed energy levels Why? Explains spectral lines. Problem: No reason for fixed energy levels

deBroglie – electron standing waves Why? Explains fixed energy levels Problem: still only works for Hydrogen.

Schrodinger – will save the day!!

Einstein’s Nobel Prize

1905: Einstein explained the photoelectric effect, which earned him the Nobel Prize in 1921.

Light is made of

tiny packets of

light, called

photons.
