Jun 28, 2024 · Rutherford's experimental investigation of 1911 led to further advances in elucidating the structure of the atom. In the pathbreaking set of experiments, “The scattering of α and β particles by matter and the structure of the atom,” Rutherford uncovered this structure as we still think of it today.
2 days ago · Atom - Electrons, Protons, Neutrons: During the 1880s and ’90s scientists searched cathode rays for the carrier of the electrical properties in matter. Their work culminated in the discovery by English physicist J.J. Thomson of the electron in 1897.
Jul 3, 2024 · At the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge, Thomson conducted a series of experiments using cathode ray tubes, which are glass tubes evacuated of air and fitted with two electrodes to emit rays from the cathode (negative electrode) to the anode (positive electrode).
Jun 21, 2024 · We believe the evidence today showed that during Mr Thomson’s tenure between 2007 and 2018 he did not take seriously enough the significant warning signals about Horizon and was not willing to accept challenges to his views on it.
2 days ago · Rutherford overturned Thomson’s model in 1911 with his famous gold-foil experiment, in which he demonstrated that the atom has a tiny, massive nucleus.
3 days ago · He met 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.
