The charge to mass ratio of particles depends on the gas from which it originates.ģ. Those are simply the positively charged gaseous ions.Ģ. The positively charged particles depend upon the nature of gas present in the cathode ray tube. The experiment for canal rays was carried out in modified cathode ray tube, by E. the cathode rays consist of electrons, while the anode/canal rays are the positively charged gaseous ions.
You are right, both kinds of rays are emitted simultaneously. The gold foil was surrounded by a detector screen that would flash when hit with an α \alpha α alpha particle. Most of the radiation was absorbed by the lead, but a thin beam of α \alpha α alpha particles escaped out of the pinhole in the direction of the gold foil.
In this case, Rutherford placed a sample of radium (a radioactive metal) inside a lead box with a small pinhole in it. Alpha particles are helium nuclei ( 2 4 He 2 + ) (_2^4\text) ( 2 4 He 2 + ) left parenthesis, start subscript, 2, end subscript, start superscript, 4, end superscript, start text, H, e, end text, start superscript, 2, plus, end superscript, right parenthesis, and they are given off in various radioactive decay processes. In his famous gold foil experiment, Rutherford fired a thin beam of α \alpha α alpha particles (pronounced alpha particles) at a very thin sheet of pure gold. The next groundbreaking experiment in the history of the atom was performed by Ernest Rutherford, a physicist from New Zealand who spent most of his career in England and Canada.
