Cathode ray - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cathode rays (also called an electron beam or e-beam ) are streams of electrons observed in vacuum tubes, i.e. evacuated glass tubes that are equipped with at least two metal electrodes to which ...

from these two experiments, "I can see no escape from the conclusion that [cathode rays] are charges of negative electricity carried by particles of matter." But, he continued, "What are these particles? are they atoms, or molecules, or matter in a still finer state of subdivision?"

If these rays are negatively electrified particles, then when they enter an enclosure they ought to carry into it a charge of negative electricity. ... As the cathode rays carry a charge of negative electricity, are deflected by an electrostatic force as if they were negatively electrified, and are acted on by a...

As he expected, the rays were deflected by the electric charge, proving beyond doubt that the rays were made up of charged particles carrying a negative charge. ... He decided upon the latter and came up with the idea that the cathode rays were made of particles that emanated from with the atoms themselves, a very bold...

The plate connected to the negative side of the electricity supply was called the cathode, that to the positive side the anode. As the pressure was lowered, a spark which fattened into a purplish glowing, writhing snake appeared going from the cathode to the anode. ... Were these cathode rays waves or particles? Hertz,

Passage of electricity through gas ... A positively charged plate attracts them, a negatively charged plate repels them, that is, cathode rays carry a negative charge. Measurements of the ... Cathode rays consist of fast moving, electrically charged particles (electrons), which simulate rays by their very large velocity;

The next step in the proof that cathode rays are negatively charged particles was to show that when they are caught in a metal vessel they give up to it a charge of negative electricity.

The next step in the proof that cathode rays are negatively charged particles was to show that when they are caught in a metal vessel they give up to it a charge of negative electricity. This was first done by Perrin.

7. Magnetic and electric fields deflect cathode rays. For example, if you place a magnet near the instrument in Fig. 515, the shadow of the cross will move. A positively charged plate attracts them, a negatively charged plate repels them, that is, cathode rays carry a negative charge.
