plum pudding model
The experiment provided evidence for a positively charged bundle in the center of the atom. We now know this to be the nucleus.
thonmson discovered that the atom contained smaller particles called electrons
Improved knowledge of the atom via new experiments and development of new theories (e.g. quantum mechanics).
Rutherford's experiment was important because it showed that an atom is mostly empty space. Rutherford gave more detail of the atom's structure.
Thomson had two pieces of evidence: 1- No matter what metal he used for the disk, the particles produced were indentical. 2- The particles had about 1/2000 the mass of a hydrogen, the lightest atom. These experiments provided the first evidence that atoms are made of even smaller particles.

im awesome!

It was J. J. Thomson (Joseph John Thomson)
Ernest Rutherford
The Rutherford model involve a positive nucleus separated from electrons.

There is a dense, positively charged mass in the center of an atom...
