Jun 7, 2024 · J.J. Thomson (born December 18, 1856, Cheetham Hill, near Manchester, England—died August 30, 1940, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire) was an English physicist who helped revolutionize the knowledge of atomic structure by his discovery of the electron (1897). He received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1906 and was knighted in 1908.

1 day ago · Joseph John Thomson, also known as JJ Thomson, was a prominent British physicist and mathematiciandiscoverer of the electron and the first atomic isotopes, creator of his own atomic model and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1906. He was one of the key figures in the development of contemporary physics at the beginning of the 20th century.
4 days ago · In this paper we restrict our attention to two of the leading contributors, Joseph J. Thomson (1856–1940) and Ernest Rutherford (1871–1937). We begin with Thomson who sought to describe a structure of the atom that accommodates both its mechanical and electromagnetic properties, but he had little experimental data to base it on.
Jun 24, 2024 · The physicist J. J. Thomson posed the problem in 1904 after proposing an atomic model, later called the plum pudding model, based on his knowledge of the existence of negatively charged electrons within neutrally-charged atoms.
