	Niels Bohr - Open Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Based on Rutherford's theories, Bohr published his model of atomic structure in 1913, introducing the theory of electrons travelling in orbits around the atom's nucleus, the chemical properties of the element being largely determined by the number of electrons in the outer orbits.
		In 1916, Bohr became a professor at the University of Copenhagen, and director of the newly constructed "Institute of Theoretical Physics" in 1920.
		Bohr was largely affected by the philosophy of Søren Kierkegaard of sharp sudden "quality" changes and rejection of the continuous changing.

		Bohr postulated that radiation is emitted from atoms not as a result of the periodic motion of the electron in its orbit, but only when an electron "jumps" from one orbit to another losing energy that is emitted as radiation.
		Bohr's theory of the compound nucleus, in which the repulsion between positively charged protons is countered by huge amounts of energy in order to hold the nucleus together, helped lead to the hypothesis that splitting an atom would produce enough energy to fabricate a powerful weapon.
		Niels Bohr died in 1962 and is buried in Copenhagen.

		Niels Bohr returned to Denmark in August 1945 and immediately began to plan an extension of the Institute to permit active participation in nuclear research which was rapidly developing.
		Bohr's lectures, composed with tremendous labour, were indeed masterpieces of allusive evocation of a subtle dialectic; the trouble was that the audience was usually unprepared to catch subtle allusions to conceptions and arguments which were anyhow unfamiliar and hard to grasp.
		Bohr intervened with a soothing pronouncement about how hard it was to imagine how the behaviour of the electron could be described beyond the limit where correspondence with the classical point-charge picture afforded legitimate guidance; we must here be prepared for further renouncement in the application of classical concepts.

		Bohr's subsequent studies, however, became more and more theoretical in character, his doctor's disputation being a purely theoretical piece of work on the explanation of the properties of the metals with the aid of the electron theory, which remains to this day a classic on the subject.
		Bohr's activities in his Institute were since 1930 more and more directed to research on the constitution of the atomic nuclei, and of their transmutations and disintegrations.

		Niels Henrik David Bohr (October 7, 1885 - November 18, 1962) was a Danish physicist.
		Based on Rutherford's theories, Bohr published his Bohr model about atom structure in 1913, introducing the theory of electrons travelling on orbits around the atom's nucleus, with the outer orbits holding more electrons than the inner ones, thereby determining the chemical properties of the atom.
		Bohr also conceived the principle of complimentarity: that items could be separately analyzed as having several contradictory properties.

		Bohr distinguished himself at the University of Copenhagen, winning a gold medal from the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters for his theoretical analysis of and precise experiments on the vibrations of water jets as a way of determining surface tension.
		Bohr was among the first to see the importance of the atomic number, which indicates the position of an element in the periodic table and is equal to the number of natural units of electric charge on the nuclei of its atoms.

	Niels Bohr: The Atomic Bomb and Beyond

		Bohr became one of the key fission researchers, determining in 1939 that the rare U-235 isotope was the isotope that made uranium fissionable and which made a chain reaction theoretically possible.
		Bohr was surprised; he later wrote: "...it was a revelation to me to learn...about the advanced stage the work had already reached" (J. Robert Oppenheimer papers, Box 34, Bohr memorandum to President Roosevelt, July 3rd, 1944, Library of Congress).

	short stories concerning Niels Bohr's Institute of Theoretical Physics
		In the basement of Niels Bohr’s Institute for Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen was a well (Levi 1986) - two meters across, three meters deep, a spiral staircase leading to the bottom.
		Bohr derived great pleasure from the fact that he no longer had to both live and work in the same place (Aaserud 1985) - not surprising when you consider that his new home was a mansion smack dab next to the Carlsberg brewery (with beer on tap?).
		Bohr’s old friend George de Hevesy was more of a workaholic and not nearly as eager to leave the Institute and go home as Bohr.
