Niels Henrik David Bohr, 1885-1962, was a Danish physicist who received the Nobel Prize in physics In 1922 for this work. He was also responsible for much of the accepted physical interpretation of quantum mechanics and for the quantum mechanical explanation of the form of the periodic table of the elements.
