Black and white photo of a young Neils Bohr. He wears a dark jacket and white shirt, with a dark tie. Bohr’s hair is combed back and swept up in a style that looks surprisingly modern. He has a serious look on his face, and his eyes are fixed on a point to the right of the photographer.

Danish physicist Niels Bohr was born #OTD in 1885.
Bohr applied the nascent quantum theory to the structure of the Hydrogen atom, offering an explanation (though not a true mechanism) for an outstanding problem that classical physics could not account for.
