The cathodic rays beam was deflected by the atomic nucleus.
ha, i have this same question on my semester exam review. im almost positive is J.J. Thomson
Particles are smaller
He knew that in a vacuum tube metals can be made to emit streams of negative charge which were then called cathode rays. If atoms are neutral and can produce negative charge, there must be positive charge there too.

There were several scientists that discovered that atoms contained electric charges. One of the first to look at their charges more closely was J.J. Thomson.
The cathodic rays beam was deflected by the atomic nucleus.
Thomson had two pieces of evidence: 1- No matter what metal he used for the disk, the particles produced were indentical. 2- The particles had about 1/2000 the mass of a hydrogen, the lightest atom. These experiments provided the first evidence that atoms are made of even smaller particles.
Thomson discovered that the atom contained smaller particles called electrons

Dalton described atoms as solid spheres. Thomson discovered the the atom also contained negatively charged particles called electrons distributed in such a way that the atom had no charge.

a cathode ray
The deflection of cathodic rays was the source of inspiration for Thomson.
