Niels Bohr, Danish physicist who is generally regarded as one of the foremost physicists of the 20th century. He was the first to apply the quantum concept to the problem of atomic and molecular structure. For that work he received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922. Niels Bohr Biographical Niels Henrik David Bohr was born in Copenhagen on , as the son of Christian Bohr, Professor of Physiology at Copenhagen University, and his wife Ellen, née Adler.
niels bohr drawing, The Bohr model is a description of the structure of atoms proposed in 1913 by the Danish physicist Niels Bohr. The Bohr model of the atom, a radical departure from earlier, classical descriptions, was the first to incorporate quantum theory and was the predecessor of wholly quantum-mechanical models. Niels Bohr was a Nobel Prize-winning physicist and humanitarian whose revolutionary theories on atomic structures helped shape research worldwide. Life Niels Bohr was born and raised in Copenhagen. After his doctorate, he spent a number of years abroad, including in Manchester and Cambridge, before returning to Denmark to become head of Copenhagen University's Institute for Theoretical Physics (now the Niels Bohr Institute).
