Best Answer

Rutherford performed the 'gold foil experiment' to test his hypothesis that much of an atom's mass is concentrated in its nucleus. But he did this after he had won the Nobel Prize for other contributions, and before he had led students who would themselves win the Nobel Prize. Please see the link.
