Synopsis
Excerpt from Molecular Physics
The present volume is an attempt to give a connected account of the constitution and properties of the atom and molecule in the light which has been thrown upon these particles by recent physical research. From the great mass of experimental observations which constitute what has been called somewhat vaguely the "New Physics" I have endeavoured to select those portions which have a direct bearing on this important and fascinating subject, and I have drawn freely on all available sources of information, some of which are indicated in the Bibliography at the end of the book.
To Professor Sir J. J. Thomson I owe a debt of gratitude for his kindness in allowing me to select from his experimental negatives, and to reproduce, the Positive Ray photographs which illustrate Chapter IV. I owe him still more for the privilege which I have enjoyed during the past eight years in the Cavendish Laboratory, of moving in daily contact with much of the work, and of drinking in, as it were at the fountain head, much of the theory narrated in the present volume. To this must be ascribed any merits which the following pages may be found to possess; for their errors and deficiencies I, alone, am responsible.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a profound exploration of the nature of atoms and molecules, drawing insights from groundbreaking discoveries in physics. The author traces the historical development of molecular theory, highlighting the contributions of renowned scientists like Dalton, Avogadro, and Thomson. At the heart of the book lies a detailed examination of the electronâ"a fundamental particle that challenged classical notions of matter. Through meticulous experiments, the author uncovers the electron's astonishing properties, including its tiny mass and electric charge, and its pivotal role as a building block of all matter. The book also ventures into the realm of positive particles, revealing their atomic nature and diverse charges. The exploration culminates in a masterful analysis of the profound implications of these discoveries, providing a deeper understanding of the fundamental constituents of our universe. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
