Ernest Rutherford

http://www.nobel.se/chemistry/laureates/1908/index.html

(1871-1937) Formulated an atomic model, according to which the positively charged atomic nucleus carries most of the mass of the atom but occupies a very small part of its volume. Victoria University, Manchester, Great Britain.

Niels Henrik David Bohr

http://www.nobel.se/physics/laureates/1922/index.html

(1885-1962) Bohr formulated in 1913 an alternative atomic model, in which only certain circular orbits of the electrons are allowed. In this model light is emitted (or absorbed), when an electron makes a transition from one orbit to another. Bohr received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922 for his work on the structure of atoms.
