crooks tube is the tube used by William crooks in his cathode ray experiment.it has a low pressure inside and it contains an anode and a cathode in each ends.the anode and the cathode are combined by a high voltage.
Is this what you're looking for?

If it's a *Crookes* tube you're asking about, it's a discharge tube because the applied electrical field causes ionization and a resulting discharge of energy in the form (mostly) of light, depending on the gas or gases in the tube.
Yes. Crookes was knighted in 1897, and in 1910 received the Order of Merit.
William Crookes added to our knowledge of the atom that matter was composed of tiny particles

Thomson constructed a Crookes tube with a near-perfect vacuum. At the start of the tube was the cathode from which the rays projected. The rays were sharpened to a beam by two metal slits - the first of these slits doubled as the anode, the second was connected to the earth. The beam then passed between two parallel aluminium plates, which produced an electric field between them when they were connected to a battery. The end of the tube was a large sphere where the beam would impact on the glass, created a glowing patch. Thomson pasted a scale to the surface of this sphere to measure the deflection of the beam. -wikipedia
The Crookes tube is a sealed glass tube that exhibits fluorescence in it after voltage is passed through the electrodes inside. It was invented in 1875 by Sir William Crookes.
around 1869-1875
Sir William Crookes was a British chemist who contributed to the knowledge of chemistry. One thing he did was discover an element that had a bright green emission line in its spectrum. He named the previously unknown element thallium.
The Crookes' Tube
Plasma was discovered by using a Crookes tube, wherein air is ionized in an electrical discharge tube, through the application of a high voltage. It was discovered by Sir William Crookes in 1879.
He is a scientist who modified and experimented with discharge tube
Cathodes(electrons) (-)
A tube!
The electrons emitted from cathode hit the glass of the tube, causing it to fluoresce.
1870

Crookes's population is 10,507.
