It also raised major questions. Was the electron point-like or did it have structure? Was there a positive electron? What did the positive part of the atom look like? Did a hydrogen atom have one electron or a thousand? Published in 1906, this expository account by leading physicist Sir Oliver Lodge (1851-1940) examines the spectacular phenomena of cathode rays in evacuated tubes, the fixed units of charge observed in electrolysis, and the puzzling regularities in atomic spectra. Lodge knew most of the pioneers in the field, and his enthusiastic descriptions of their work and clear analyses of the problems as well as successes paint a vivid picture of the excitement of cutting-edge research and the scientific process in action. 410 0$aCambridge library collection.$pPhysical sciences. 606 $aElectrons 615 0$aElectrons. 676 $a539.72112 700 $aLodge$b Oliver$cSir,$f1851-1940,$027107 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910160955303321 996 $aElectrons: Or, The Nature and Properties of Negative Electricity$91861876 997 $aUNINA
