Question: Planck's results challenged what views?
About the article "Electromagnetism", section "Photoelectric effect".

Candidate passages:
 Max Planck hosted fellow physicist Heinrich Rubens for tea, and considered news that Rubens' experiments had contradicted Planck's theories.
Later that evening, Planck reviewed his calculations and refined them to what would be announced, on October 19, as Planck's law or the radiation distribution function.  
— Scott Garrett (R) won in 2004 with 58% of the vote against an underfunded Anne Wolfe in what is normally a Republican district.
His strongly conservative views were the subject of some controversy: for example, he was one of only a few Republicans to vote against the emergency aid to Hurricane Katrina victims.
He opposed renewing the Voting Rights Act.
Democrat Paul Aronsohn challenged Garrett; with more support from the Democrats as well as several towns within the district won by Corzine in the governor's race, it was thought that this could be a pickup opportunity.
This district gave George W. Bush a 184,530 - 137,019 plurality over John Kerry in 2004 and the district was one of two New Jersey districts carried by Bob Dole in 1996 when he lost badly in the rest of the state.
"CQPolitics rating: Republican Favored."
Results: Garrett defeated Aronsohn, 55% to 44%. 
 Max Planck presented, to the Physical Society of Berlin, what is now called Planck's law of blackbody radiation, described as "a discovery that opened the way to the development of the quantum theory and provided the initial formulation for that theory".  
According to Maxwell's equations in the late 19th century, light was thought to consist of waves of electromagnetic fields and matter consist of localized particles.
However this was challenged in Albert Einstein’s 1905 paper on the photoelectric effect, which described light as discrete and localized quanta of energy (now called photons), and won him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921.
In 1927 Louis de Broglie presented his thesis concerning the wave-particle duality theory, which proposed the idea that all matter displays the wave-particle duality of photons.
According to de Broglie for all matter and for radiation alike, the energy E of the particle was related to the frequency of its associated wave ν by the Planck relation: formula_1 And that the momentum of the particle p was related to its wavelength by what is now known as the de Broglie relation: formula_2 where h is Planck's constant.
An important contribution to the Davisson–Germer experiment was made by Walter M. Elsasser in Göttingen in the 1920s, who remarked that the wave-like nature of matter might be investigated by electron scattering experiments on crystalline solids, just as the wave-like nature of X-rays had been confirmed through X-ray scattering experiments on crystalline solids.
This suggestion of Elsasser was then communicated by his senior colleague (and later Nobel Prize recipient) Max Born to physicists in England.
When the Davisson and Germer experiment was performed, the results of the experiment were explained by Elsasser's proposition.
However the initial intention of the Davisson and Germer experiment was not to confirm the de Broglie hypothesis, but rather to study the surface of nickel.
In 1927 at Bell Labs, Clinton Davisson and Lester Germer fired slow moving electrons at a crystalline nickel target.
The angular dependence of the reflected electron intensity was measured and was determined to have the same diffraction pattern as those predicted by Bragg for X-rays.
This experiment was independently replicated by George Paget Thomson, and Davisson and Thomson shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1937.
The Davisson – Germer experiment confirmed the de Broglie hypothesis that matter has wave-like behavior.
This, in combination with the Compton effect discovered by Arthur Compton (who won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1927), established the wave–particle duality hypothesis which was a fundamental step in quantum theory. 
Bohr model.
In 1911, Bohr travelled to England.
At the time, it was where most of the theoretical work on the structure of atoms and molecules was being done.
He met with J. J. Thomson of the Cavendish Laboratory and Trinity College, Cambridge.
He attended lectures on electromagnetism given by James Jeans and Joseph Larmor, and did some research on cathode rays, but failed to impress Thomson.
He had more success with younger physicists like the Australian William Lawrence Bragg, and New Zealand's Ernest Rutherford, whose 1911 Rutherford model of the atom had challenged Thomson's 1904 plum pudding model.
Bohr received an invitation from Rutherford to conduct post-doctoral work at Victoria University of Manchester, where Bohr met George de Hevesy and Charles Galton Darwin (whom Bohr referred to as "the grandson of the real Darwin").
Bohr returned to Denmark in July 1912 for his wedding, and travelled around England and Scotland on his honeymoon.
On his return, he became a "privatdocent" at the University of Copenhagen, giving lectures on thermodynamics.
Martin Knudsen put Bohr's name forward for a "docent", which was approved in July 1913, and Bohr then began teaching medical students.
His three papers, which later became famous as "the trilogy", were published in "Philosophical Magazine" in July, September and November of that year.
He adapted Rutherford's nuclear structure to Max Planck's quantum theory and so created his Bohr model of the atom.
Planetary models of atoms were not new, but Bohr's treatment was.
Taking the 1912 paper by Darwin on the role of electrons in the interaction of alpha particles with a nucleus as his starting point, he advanced the theory of electrons travelling in orbits around the atom's nucleus, with the chemical properties of each element being largely determined by the number of electrons in the outer orbits of its atoms.
He introduced the idea that an electron could drop from a higher-energy orbit to a lower one, in the process emitting a quantum of discrete energy.
This became a basis for what is now known as the old quantum theory.
In 1885, Johann Balmer had come up with his Balmer series to describe the visible spectral lines of a hydrogen atoms: formula_1  where λ is the wavelength of the absorbed or emitted light and "R"H is the Rydberg constant.
Balmer's formula was corroborated by the discovery of additional spectral lines, but for thirty years, no one could explain why it worked.
In the first paper of his trilogy, Bohr was able to derive it from his model: formula_2 where "m"e is the electron's mass, "e" is its charge, "h" is Planck's constant and "Z" is the atom's atomic number (1 for hydrogen).
The model's first hurdle was the Pickering series, lines which did not fit Balmer's formula.
When challenged on this by Alfred Fowler, Bohr replied that they were caused by ionised helium, helium atoms with only one electron.
The Bohr model was found to work for such ions.
Many older physicists, like Thomson, Rayleigh and Hendrik Lorentz, did not like the trilogy, but the younger generation, including Rutherford, David Hilbert, Albert Einstein, Max Born and Arnold Sommerfeld saw it as a breakthrough.
The trilogy's acceptance was entirely due to its ability to explain phenomena which stymied other models, and to predict results that were subsequently verified by experiments.
Today, the Bohr model of the atom has been superseded, but is still the best known model of the atom, as it often appears in high school physics and chemistry texts.
Bohr did not enjoy teaching medical students.
He decided to return to Manchester, where Rutherford had offered him a job as a reader in place of Darwin, whose tenure had expired.
Bohr accepted.
He took a leave of absence from the University of Copenhagen, which he started by taking a holiday in Tyrol with his brother Harald and aunt Hanna Adler.
There, he visited the University of Göttingen and the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, where he met Sommerfeld and conducted seminars on the trilogy.
The First World War broke out while they were in Tyrol, greatly complicating the trip back to Denmark and Bohr's subsequent voyage with Margrethe to England, where he arrived in October 1914.
They stayed until July 1916, by which time he had been appointed to the Chair of Theoretical Physics at the University of Copenhagen, a position created especially for him.
His docentship was abolished at the same time, so he still had to teach physics to medical students.
New professors were formally introduced to King Christian X, who expressed his delight at meeting such a famous football player.
