α-Particle Scattering Experiment by Rutherford
In this experiment H Geiger and E Marsden( Student of Rutherford and on suggestion of Rutherford) took ₈₃Bi²¹⁴ (Bismuth) as a source of α particles. A collimated beam of α particles of energy range (5 MeV to 7.7 MeV) was allowed to fall on 10⁻⁸ m to 10⁻⁶ m thick gold foil. The α particles […]
