A physicist who won the Nobel Prize in 1922 in Physics and made foundation contribution to nuclear physics and the understanding atomic structure, was born on October 7, 1885, in Copenhagen, Denmark. He also founded the Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of Copenhagen, now known as the Niels Bohr Institute. He inspired by the Rutherford's nuclear model of the atom. This model contributed enormously to future developments of theoretical atomic physics. In 1916 Bohr worked at the University of Copenhagen as the professor of physics, and became the first director of the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics in 1957. The theory developed by him relating quantum numbers made other major contributions to theoretical physics. His work inspired to lead the concept of electrons existence in shells. He also explained that the electrons outermost shell determine an atom's. He also began working to develop peaceful uses for atomic energy. He organized the first Atoms for Peace Conference in Geneva, held in 1955, and two years later he received the first Atoms for Peace Award. In 1997 the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry announced that the chemical element with the atomic number 107 would be given the official name bohrium (Bh), in honor of Niels Bohr.
He died on November 18, 1962, in Copenhagen, Denmark.
