Dr. Eugen Goldstein was a German physicist who was an early researcher in the area of discharge tubes and atoms, and has also been credited with the discovery of the proton. Goldstein worked at both the Berlin Observatory and the Potsdam Observatory during his career. While conducting research using Crookes tubes, Dr. Goldstein discovered that the tubes emitted light and that magnetic fields had an influence on that light. He eventually named these light rays Cathode rays. This research was the foundation of the eventual discovery of anode rays.
What else can I help you with?
Why anode rays also known as canal rays?
Anode rays are also known as canal rays because they were discovered to be positively charged particles produced in a cathode tube when the cathode rays strike a gas at low pressure. The particles travel in the opposite direction of cathode rays and move towards the anode or positive electrode, hence the name "anode rays."
Are anode rays emitted from anode?
There are no rays assign as anode rays (cathode rays are there in a discharge tube) but during discharge tube experiment positive rays are observed which are generated by decomposition of gaseous molecules present in the tube. X-rays are produced by striking of cathode rays with anode so x-rays may be called as anode rays.
In the production of anode rays why perforated cathode plate is used?
A perforated cathode plate is used in the production of anode rays to allow some electrons to pass through and create a beam of electrons. This helps in generating a focused and directional electron beam for studying the properties of anode rays. The perforations also provide a way for the electrons to accelerate towards the anode, contributing to the formation of anode rays.
Electrons consist of of ?
Yes , X-rays consist of first moving electrons ,because high voltage between cathode and anode causes the electrons to accelerate toward the anode,When the electrons strike the anode's target area, X-rays are emitted.
Does the ratio of anode ray depends upon the Nature of gas present in discharge tube?
Yes, the ratio of anode rays (or positive ions) depends on the nature of the gas present in the discharge tube. Different gases ionize at varying rates and produce different types of positive ions, which can affect the mass-to-charge ratio of the anode rays. Consequently, the composition of the gas influences the characteristics and behavior of the anode rays generated during discharge.
Why anode and cathode rays do not get neutralized?
There is no such thing as anode rays!!
What are the uses of Cathode Rays and Anode Rays?
cathode rays can emit electrons anode can collect them

Anode rays have negative charge?
No, anode rays are not negatively charged. They are positively charged ion.
How anode rays are formed from the gas?
Gas discharge tubes are what cause the formation of the anode rays. Several thousand bolts are put towards the cathode, which is apart of the gas discharge tubes, and the anode. This creates the anode rays.
How does the mass to charge ratio of cathode rays compare to that of anode rays?
it varies because charge to mass ratio of positive rays depends upon gases used in the discharge tube.its varies from gas to gas.
In cathode ray tube cathode and anode rays travel opposite to each other but they are not neutralized. why?
There is no such thing as anode rays. The cathode rays (aka electron beam) just travels from cathode to anode.
Why positive rays called canal rays?
Positive rays are called canal rays because they are positively charged particles emitted by the anode and accelerated through a small canal or channel in the cathode of a cathode ray tube. These rays were discovered by Eugen Goldstein and were later studied by J.J. Thomson.
Who discovered anode and cathode rays?
Cathode rays were discovered by JJ Thomson and carry a negative charge Anode rays were discovered by Goldstein and carry a positive charge.

Why are anode rays called canal rays?
Anode rays are positively charged .so they are bend towards perforated cathode which is negatively charged and pass through them.since they have passed through canals or holes by producing fluorescence. Therefore they are known as canal rays.
