Although Rutherford is credited with the famous gold foil scattering experiment, he didn’t actually conduct this experiment himself. It was done by two of his assistants, Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden. Do you think it was fair to name the experiment after Rutherford while ignoring the other two scientists? Why or why not?

if he was the primary scientist doing it as he did alot of the heavy lifting then yes its ok, but i also think how the others should also me at least mentioned. Or they could just not name the experiment by a person just so its not too biased
