	Although the Bohr Model is an expansion and improvement of the Rutherford Model, there are still a number of flaws that have since been corrected with further findings and studies. A couple of issues with the Bohr Model is that it does not explain the details of the Hydrogen and Helium atomic spectrum. Additionally, the model does not explain the or acknowledge the Zeeman Effect (the splitting of Spectral Lines in the presence of a magnetic field, the intensity of Spectral Lines.

	Werner Heisenberg and Erwin Schrodinger are two of many scientists who worked to improve and correct the Bohr Model; their findings are particularly noteworthy. In 1927, Heisenberg founded the Uncertainty Principle in which, as the name suggests, states that a particle's position and momentum can never be known accurately which is a contradiction to Bohr's theory. This principle coincides with Schrodinger's equation.[8] Schrodinger theorized that the behavior of electrons within atoms could be explained by treating them mathematically as matter waves.

	The Bohr model explains the energy levels of electrons. Atoms all have electrons that orbit the nucleus and there exists an electromagnetic force between the protons and electrons. This force contains energy and causes the atom to experience a set of quantum states. These quantum states. See below '''quantum states'''. The Bohr model visualizes the quantum states. It labels it based on the electron’s principal number (from the quantum states). Spectral emission happens when an electron moves from a quantum state with more energy to one with less energy. The difference between the initial and final state corresponds to the emitted photon (which gives us visual evidence of the transition). This emitted light corresponds to a certain spectral series.
