The first cathode ray experiments, conducted by scientists like J.J. Thomson in the late 19th century, proved that cathode rays are streams of negatively charged particles, later identified as electrons. This discovery demonstrated that atoms are not indivisible, as previously thought, but contain smaller subatomic particles. It also paved the way for the development of atomic models and our understanding of electricity and matter.
