In 1948 Bohr worked with Ben Mottelson and Leo James Rainwater in Copenhagen to summarize the current knowledge of nuclear structure in a monograph. The first volume, Single-Particle Motion, appeared in 1969, and the second volume, Nuclear Deformations, in 1975. Their efforts on this project and their collaboration on nuclear theory led them both to receive the 1975 Nobel Prize in Physics, for research on the quantum mechanical description of nucleons orbiting inside a wobbly rotating droplet.
