Arthur Rutherford shot a line of alpha particles at a ultra-thin piece of gold foil. Later revealing the presence of the nucleus.
Rutherford shot high-energy alpha particles (two protons and two neutrons, or a helium nucleus) at the gold foil. A small fraction of these alpha particles bounced back, and that is how Rutherford discovered the nucleus.

To do the Rutherford Experiment, you have to shoot alpha particles at gold foil to and see where the particles pass through and where they do not. This will give you a general idea of what Rutherford did to discover the nucleus of an atom. However, alpha particles are very hard to come upon, as they are the nucleus of Carbon. Rutherford knew that alpha particles are about 7000 times more massive than electrons and are positively charged and the charge is twice the magnitude of the charge of electrons.when Rutherford directed a beam of alpha particles at a thin gold foil,he found that almost all particles passed through it without deflecting.A very small were deflected at an angle, however, and a few actually bounded back toward the particle source.
