He proposed a description of the structure of atoms, especially that of hydrogen in 1913. The Bohr model of the atom, a radical departure from earlier, classical descriptions, was the first that incorporated quantum theory and was the predecessor of wholly quantum-mechanical models.
He said that atom consists of a heavy positively charged nucleus with substantially lighter negatively charged electrons circling around it at considerable distance.
He predicted that element 72 would behave as he thought. The element was named hafnium (Latin for Copenhagen).
He worked with others to develop the atomic bomb, he made significant technical contributions, notably to the design of the so-called initiator for the plutonium bomb.
