Rutherford Scattering

Rutherford Scattering is a theoretical model of elastic scattering in nuclear physics that describes the angular distribution of alpha particles deflected by a stationary atomic nucleus under the influence of the Coulomb force, distinguished by its inverse-square dependence on scattering angle and its foundational role in establishing the nuclear model of the atom.
