 * Niels was the son of Christian Bohr, Professor of Physiology at Copenhagen University, and his mother Ellen, //née// Adler.
 * Niels brother became a brilliant mathematican.
 * In 1913, Bohr published a theory about the structure of the atom based on an earlier theory of Rutherford's
 * Bohr became a professor of physics at the University of Copenhagen in 1916.
 * In 1920, he was named director of the newly constructed Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University.
 * Niels received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922.
 * Two died young, and most of the others went on to lead successful lives.

** Bohr’s atom theory ** ** · **** Bohr’s theory about an atom was that each electron was a set distance from the nucleus. ** ·  ** His model is a good example of how many neutrons are on each energy level. ** ** Evidence and Proof **
 * · **** This is just like the planets orbiting the sun. **
 * · Bohr’s theory** about an atom is wrong, but we still use his model.
 * Bohr got a lot of his proof from Isaac Newton
 * Newton proposed the theory of the planets orbiting the sun
 * Bohr believed the same thing about atoms


 * · **  **Ernest Rutherford suggested an atom had a miniature, dense nucleus surrounded by a cloud of weightless electrons.**
 * · This theory was wrong. **
 * · Bohr proposed a theory adding to Max Planck’s idea. **
