Origin

Early 18th century: from Latin, literally 'kernel, inner part', diminutive of nux, nuc- 'nut'.

The nucleus of something is literally its ‘little nut’. In Latin nucleus meant ‘kernel, inner part’, and was a diminutive of nux ‘nut’. Nucleus originally referred to the bright core at the centre of a comet's head, and then to the central part of the earth. Today its main technical meaning is ‘the positively charged central core of an atom’. This was identified by Sir Ernest Rutherford (1871–1937), regarded as the founder of nuclear physics, in 1911.
