Atoms and the Periodic Table (1 of 15)

Episode 1 of In Search of Giants: Dr Brian Cox takes us on a journey through the history of particle physics. In this episode we learn that the Greeks knew about atoms and how Mendeleyev's periodic table was among the first clues that the atom had a deeper structure.

This film is part of a series originally broadcast on Teachers' TV (http://www.teachers.tv/video/23645).

The series was made with the support of The Science and Technology Facilities Council (www.scitech.ac.uk).
