ERNEST RUTHERFORD
Ernest Rutherford was born on August 30, 1871 in South Island, New
Zealand in the family of English settlers. Little Ernest was the fourth child in the
family. He was one of the best pupils at school. The boy was interested in
physics, chemistry, mathematics. He liked to make models of different
machines.
At the age of 19 Ernest entered the only New Zealand University called
Canterbury College. He studied much and also took active part in the work of
the Scientific Society at the University. At one of the meetings of this society he
made his scientific report “The Evolution of Elements
”. At the same time he
began his research work.
Later Ernest Rutherford went to Cambridge where he could continue his
investigations. The main scientific problem at that time at Cambridge was the
structure of the atom. The scientist had to work hard. As a result he wrote his
famous work: “The Scattering of Alpha and Beta Particles of Matter and the
Structure of the Atom”. The book dealt with so-called ’’ atom models ’’. The
atoms had always been regarded as the smallest indivisible units of matter.
Rutherford was able to show that the atom was made up of smaller parts and had
a complex structure. The atom had a central nucleus and a number of electrons
revolving around it. It was Rutherford who showed that the atom could be
bombarded so that the electrons could be thrown off. The splitting of the atom
opened to a man a new and enormous source of energy. The most important
results were obtained by splitting of uranium atoms.
Ernest Rutherford worked in Canada, lectured in the United States and
England. He paid much attention to his young pupils. Rutherford made a
thorough study of radioactivity and taught young scientist in the field of atomic
research. At present we are only at the beginning of the use of atomic energy for
peaceful purposes.
