Conduction of Electricity Through Gases: Volume 1, Ionisation by Heat and Light


Book Description

This 1933 volume is one of two books making up the third edition of a 1903 original by British physicist Sir Joseph John Thomson. The text was greatly enlarged for this edition, which resulted in its division into two parts, and incorporates numerous advances in research relating to the discharge of electricity through gases.




Conduction of Electricity Through Gases: Volume 2, Ionisation by Collision and the Gaseous Discharge


Book Description

This 1933 volume is the second of two books making up the third edition of a 1903 original by British physicist Sir Joseph John Thomson. The text was greatly enlarged for this edition, which resulted in its division into two parts, and incorporates numerous advances in research relating to the discharge of electricity through gases.







The Discharge of Electricity Through Gases


Book Description

A pioneering work that helped us to better understand the nature of cathode rays.







Electricity in Gases


Book Description

Among the topics covered in this edition are the methods of producing ions in gases, the motion of ions in gases, the velocity of ions in an electric field, and the formation of clouds and the determination of the atomic charge.
