- 1897 | James Clerk Maxwell states that electric and magnetic fields fill a void.
G. J. Stoney theorizes that electricity is made up of individual negative particles that he calls electrons.
Sir William Crookes discovered the following properties of cathode rays: they fluoresce glass, travel in straight lines directly from the cathode, give objects they strike a negative charge, are deflected by magnets and electrical fields and make pinwheels spin, which proves they have mass.
Goldstein used a cathode ray tube (CRT) to study canal rays, discovering in the process that they had magnetic and electrical properties opposite to those of electrons.
The theory of electrons was published by Hendrik Lorentz, a Dutch physicist.
Wilhelm Roentgen discovered x-rays and founded a new medical technique that played an important role in discovering the secrets of the atom.
Henri Becquerel, a French physicist, discovered radioactivity.
J. J. Thompson discovers subatomic particles when he discovers that electrons are negatively charged and have a very small mass. | Atomic Theory Timeline 2 1 3 4 5 6 Bibliography of the Atomic Theory TimelineMott, N F, Massey, H S W, Wilkinson, D and Bullard, E C (1965).
