Sir Joseph John Thomson 1856 - 1940, englischer Physiker Sir Joseph John Thomson wurde am 18. Dezember 1856 in Cheetham Hill, einem Vorort von Manchester, geboren. 1870 schrieb Thomson sich am 'Owens College' in Manchester ein. Nach dem Ende seines Studiums ging er 1876 als Nachwuchswissenschaftler an das 'Trinity College' in Cambridge. 1884 erhielt Thomson die Cavendish-Professur für Experimentalphysik in Cambridge und wurde damit Nachfolger von Lord Rayleigh. Diesen Posten hatte er bis 1918 inne. Mit seinen Experimenten konnte Thomson 1895 beweisen, daß Kathodenstrahlen aus einem Strom von kleinen Teilchen, den 'Korpuskeln' (Elektronen) beszehen, die von Atomen abgegeben werden. In vorherigen Theorien wurden Kathodenstrahlen als Welle und nicht als Teilchen angesehen. Thomson erkannte, daß die von verschiedenen Materialien ausgehenden 'Korpuskel' identische Eigenschaften haben und schloß daraus, daß es nur eine Sorte dieser 'Korpuskel' gibt, die in jedem Material enthalten sind. In letzter Konsquenz ergab sich aus dieser Erkenntnis Thomsons berühmtes 'Thomson-Modell' ('Rosinenkuchenmodell') des Atomaufbaus. Er gilt als einer der Mitbegründer der Atomphysik.

On Dec. 18, 1856, J. J. Thomson was born at Cheetham Hill near Manchester. His father, a bookseller and publisher, planned a career in engineering for Joseph, but since no apprenticeship could be found for him in any engineering firm, he was sent "temporarily" to college in Manchester at the age of 14. As a result of his ability and determination, he won a scholarship in 1876 and entered Trinity College, Cambridge; he remained there for the rest of his life. After graduation Thomson began working in the Cavendish Laboratory, which was under the direction of Lord Rayleigh. Thomson's brilliance brought him membership in the Royal Society at 27 and his appointment as Rayleigh's successor at 28. He proved to be inspiring and effective both as a teacher and as a research director, and as time passed, students came to him from all over the world. He sometimes had as many as 40 to advise at once, and for the first quarter of the 20th century the Cavendish Laboratory, where Thomson insisted that theory should be considered "a policy, not a creed," was the world center for particle research.

Sir Joseph John Thomson was born near Manchester, England, and educated at Owens College (now part of Victoria University of Manchester) and Trinity College, University of Cambridge. At Cambridge he taught mathematics and physics, served as Cavendish Professor of Experimental Physics, and was (1918-40) master of Trinity College. He was also president of the Royal Society (1915-20) and professor of natural philosophy at the Royal Institute of Great Britain (1905-18). Thomson was awarded the 1906 Nobel Prize in physics for his work on the conduction of electricity through gases. He is considered the discoverer of the electron through his experiments on the stream of particles (electrons) emitted by cathode rays. A theorist as well as an experimenter, Thomson advanced in 1898 the “plum-pudding” theory of atomic structure, holding that negative electrons were like plums embedded in a pudding of positive matter. Thomson was knighted in 1908.

J.J. Thomson (1856-1940) Sir Joseph John Thomson was born in Cheetham Hill, a suburb of Manchester on December 18, 1856. He enrolled at Owens College, Manchester, in 1870, and in 1876 entered Trinity College, Cambridge as a minor scholar. He became a Fellow of Trinity College in 1880, when he was Second Wrangler and Second Smith's Prizeman, and he remained a member of the College for the rest of his life, becoming Lecturer in 1883 and Master in 1918. He was Cavendish Professor of Experimental Physics at Cambridge, where he succeeded Lord Rayleigh, from 1884 to 1918 and Honorary Professor of Physics, Cambridge and Royal Institution, London. Thomson's early interest in atomic structure was reflected in his Treatise on the Motion of Vortex Rings which won him the Adams Prize in 1884. His Application of Dynamics to Physics and Chemistry appeared in 1886, and in 1892 he had his Notes on Recent Researches in Electricity and Magnetism published. Thomson co-operated with Professor J. H. Poynting in a four-volume textbook of physics, Properties of Matter and in 1895 he produced Elements of the Mathematical Theory of Electricity and Magnetism, the 5th edition of which appeared in 1921. In 1896, Thomson visited America to give a course of four lectures, which summarised his current researches, at Princeton. These lectures were subsequently published as Discharge of Electricity through Gases (1897). On his return from America, he achieved the most brilliant work of his life - an original study of cathode rays culminating in the discovery of the electron, which was announced during the course of his evening lecture to the Royal Institution on Friday, April 30, 1897. His book, Conduction of Electricity through Gases, published in 1903 was described by Lord Rayleigh as a review of "Thomson's great days at the Cavendish Laboratory". A later edition, written in collaboration with his son, George, appeared in two volumes (1928 and 1933).

A D V E N T U R E S in C Y B E R S O U N D Joseph John (J.J.) Thompson, Sir : 1856 - 1940 Sir Joseph John Thomson, (b. Dec. 18, 1856, d. Aug. 30, 1940), is universally recognized as the British scientist who discovered and identified the electron. At the age of 27 he succeeded (1884) Lord Rayleigh as professor of physics at Trinity College, Cambridge, and was named director of its Cavendish Laboratory in the same year, continuing in that position until 1919. Thomson demonstrated (1897) that cathode rays were actually units of electrical current made up of negatively charged particles of subatomic size. He believed them to be an integral part of all matter and theorized a model of atomic structure in which a quantity of negatively charged electrons was embedded in a sphere of positive electricity, the two charges neutralizing each other. For these investigations he won (1906) the Nobel Prize for physics; in 1908 he was knighted. Subsequently, Thomson turned his attention to positively charged ions. His research showed that neon gas was made up of a combination of two different types of ions, each with a different charge, or mass, or both. He did this by using magnetic and electric fields to deflect the stream of positive ions of neon gas onto two different parts of a photographic plate. This demonstration clearly pointed to the possibility that ordinary elements might exist as isotopes (varieties of atoms of the same element, which have the same atomic number but differ in mass).

Joseph John Thomson (1856-1940) Rays of positive electricity Proceedings of the Royal Society A 89 The World of the Atom , Vol. 1 (New York: Basic Books, 1966)] In 1886, Goldstein observed that when the cathode in a vacuum tube was pierced with holes, the electrical discharge did not stop at the cathode; behind the cathode, beams of light could be seen streaming through the holes in the way represented in Figure 1. He ascribed these pencils of light to rays passing through the holes into the gas behind the cathode; and from their association with the channels through the cathode he called these rays Kanalstrahlen y = (e/mv ) A , where e, m, v, are respectively the charge, mass, and velocity of the particle, and A a constant depending on the strength of the electric field and the length of path of the particle, but quite independent of e, m, or v. If the particle is acted upon by a magnetic force parallel to the axis of y, it will be deflected parallel to the axis of z, and the deflection in this direction of the spot where the particle strikes the plane will be given by the equation z = (e/mv) B
