The Geiger Marsden Rutherford Gold Foil Experiment - IB Physics

Описание к видео The Geiger Marsden Rutherford Gold Foil Experiment - IB Physics

The Geiger-Marsden Experiment (also called the Rutherford Gold Foil Experiment) disproved the plum pudding model of an atom and predicted instead that an atom has a small, dense nucleus surrounded by mostly empty space. This lecture explains how the experiment was done and what conclusions were drawn from it.
