Bohr built upon the contemporary theory and models such as those of Rutherford and proposed an atomic model with most of the atom's mass concentrated in the center (later referred to as the nucleus) and electrons around the center arranged in orbits in discrete positions or energy levels; this explained some experimental findings consistent with emerging quantum theory.

Bohr proposed that electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom in fixed, circular paths or energy levels. These paths are quantized, meaning electrons can only occupy specific energy levels and transition between them by absorbing or emitting energy. This formed the basis of the Bohr model of the atom.
In formulating his hypothesis, Bohr also considered the experimental evidence of atomic spectra and the quantum theory developed by Max Planck and Albert Einstein. Additionally, Bohr incorporated concepts from classical mechanics and Rutherford's model of the atom to propose his atomic model.
Niels Bohr used experimental data on the emission spectra of hydrogen to formulate his hypothesis on the structure of the atom. This data showed distinct lines in the spectrum that could not be explained by classical physics, leading Bohr to propose his model of the atom with quantized energy levels.
Bohr emphasized the complementarity of the wave and particle aspects of matter and radiation, known as wave-particle duality. This principle highlights that matter can exhibit properties of both waves and particles, depending on the experimental setup. Bohr's view helped reconcile apparent contradictions in the behavior of elementary particles and revolutionized quantum mechanics.
