Before Rutherford, scientists assumed that the atom was a single particle. Rutherford presented his revolutionary, physical atomic model that suggested an atom consists of a central charge (the term 'nucleus' was coined after Rutherford's model was presented) that is surrounded, presumably, by a cloud of orbiting electrons. He showed that most of an atom's mass was located in the atom's nucleus.
Rutherford's model was later improved upon by Niels Bohr, father of the Bohr-model. Rutherford made no connection to an element's atomic number and the number of protons within an atom's nucleus; however, his atomic model paved the way for the discovery of this correlation only a couple years after his model was designed.

The modern atomic model is elaborated by Niels Bohr.
He placed positive material in the atom's center.
its was Ernest Rutherford who proposed the planetary atomic model
Ernest Rutherford. Added: I would think Neils Bohr here. Clarification: I think it was Rutherford. Bohr's work came after the "Rutherford Model". There are many places to read about this, eg Wikipedia " Rutherford Model". Certainly Bohr refined the Rutherford Model even before his quantum ideas for the hydrogen atom. That's why the "planetary model" is sometimes called the "Rutherford-Bohr Model."
The model atom Ernest Rutherford made is simply called the Rutherford Model. The experiment he conducted during his research is referred to as the Gold Foil Experiment. Rutherford is known as the father of nuclear physics.

Ernest Rutherford created the nuclear model of an atom!
He placed positive material in the atom's center.
Ernest Rutherford was an investigator of atomic theory, and it was his model of the atom, the one with the mass concentrated in the center, that replaced the J.J. Thompson model. Links are provided below.

The Rutherford-Atomic Theory was published by Ernest Rutherford. It described the atom as having a central positive nucleus surrounded by negative orbiting electrons.

The atomic model that contained empty spaces within it was given by Mendeleev. The gaps were left for the elements that were not discovered at that time.
The ''plum pudding atomic model" is from J. J. Thomson, year 1904.
E. Rutherford developed his atomic model due to the results of his gold foil experiment. His atomic model describes a small central, dense core and a surrounding volume of charged particles.
In 1911 the existence of the atomic nucleus was discovered by Ernest Rutherford through his interpretation of the gold foil experiment conducted two years earlier by Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden. In 1932 Dmitry Ivanenko proposed the proton-neutron model of the nucleus.
