E. Rutherford in a group portrait at McGill Unive
Portrait of the New Zealand born physicist Sir Ernest Rutherford (1871-1937, right) at the McGill University, Canada. In 1903, together with F. Soddy, he proposed that radioactive decay occurs by successive and spontaneous disintegrations of atoms. In 1911 he elaborated an atomic model in which the positive charge of the atom (protons) was concentrated in a very small region, the nucleus. He also showed that the structure of an atom could be changed (nuclear transmutation) by bombarding it with alpha particles. He is considered to be the father of nuclear physics and in 1908 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for chemistry

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the brilliant physicist Sir Ernest Rutherford in a group portrait at McGill University, Canada. Born in New Zealand in 1871, Rutherford made groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of atomic structure and radioactive decay. In collaboration with F. Soddy, Rutherford proposed in 1903 that radioactive elements undergo spontaneous disintegrations of atoms through successive stages. Then, in 1911, he presented his revolutionary atomic model which revealed that an atom's positive charge (protons) is concentrated within a tiny region called the nucleus. Moreover, he demonstrated that bombarding atoms with alpha particles could alter their structure through nuclear transmutation. Regarded as the father of nuclear physics, Rutherford's remarkable achievements earned him numerous accolades throughout his career. In recognition of his exceptional work and profound impact on scientific knowledge, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1908. This extraordinary portrait immortalizes a man whose theories revolutionized our understanding of matter and energy at its most fundamental level. With his surname beginning with 'R', Sir Ernest Rutherford remains an iconic figure who forever changed the landscape of modern physics.
