- The Rutherford model was devised by Ernest Rutherford to describe an atom. Rutherford directed the Geiger–Marsden experiment in 1909, which suggested, upon Rutherford’s 1911 analysis, that J. J. Thomson’s plum pudding model of the atom was incorrect. Rutherford’s new model for the atom, based on the experimental results, contained new features of a relatively high central charge concentrated into a very small volume in comparison to the rest of the atom and with this central volume containing most of the atom’s mass; this region would be known as the atomic nucleus. The Rutherford model was subsequently superseded by the Bohr model.

Linux (/ˈlɪnʊks/, LIN-uuks) is a generic name for a family of open-source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991, by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged as a Linux distribution (distro), which includes the kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project.
