    This document summarizes the key discoveries and models in the development of atomic theory. It describes the early Greek philosophers Leucippus and Democritus who proposed the idea of indivisible atoms. The modern atomic theory was developed by John Dalton, including that atoms are tiny, indestructible particles that combine in whole number ratios. Joseph Thomson discovered the electron using cathode ray tubes. Ernest Rutherford discovered the nucleus via gold foil experiments. James Chadwick discovered the neutron, and Niels Bohr and Erwin Schrodinger developed planetary and quantum mechanical atomic models respectively.
