thermionic emission
A modern day name for cathode rays is an electrons.
The scientist who discovered the charge of electrons was J.J. Thomson. He determined the charge-to-mass ratio of electrons through his experiments with cathode rays in the late 19th century.
it was electrons
The scientist credited with the discovery of the cathode ray is J.J. Thomson. Thomson conducted experiments with cathode rays in the late 19th century and discovered the electron, which revolutionized our understanding of atomic structure.
The parts of a cell that work together to produce an electric current are the anode (positive terminal), cathode (negative terminal), and electrolyte. The anode releases positively charged ions into the electrolyte solution, while the cathode receives these ions and releases negatively charged ions. The flow of ions between the anode and cathode through the electrolyte creates an electric current.

I dunno if I'm right but I think it is called electrons. I mean, electrons were in cathode Rays and were bent by a magnet right?
The Cathode Ray Tube is called CRT, but I don't know of any "modern day" name. I know it was discovered by J.J. Thomson, who discovered electrons through the Cathode Ray Tube.
A cathode ray tube (CRT) emits light when electrons strike the front of the glass tube that is covered in a phosphor coating. The front of the tube is the anode of the tube. The electrons are fired from the rear of the tube by an electrode called the cathode. The electrons are formed into a beam or ray, hence the name of cathode ray tube. Although the electrons travel from the rear of the tube to the front, or from the cathode to the anode, conventional current actually flows the opposite direction. So, the current, as measured in amps will flow from the anode to the cathode.
The electron had already been discovered. It took little imagination to "see" that the cathode ray was the beam of electrons that originated from the cathode. And the beam was controlled using techniques based directly on what was correctly understood about the electron. The cathode ray could only be an electron beam generated at the cathode. Conventional elctric current flow is usually thought of as flowing from positive to negative, but at the quantum level; due to electrons having a negative charge; technically they really flow from negative to positive, and this is apparent in the cathode ray tube. Its the negatively charged electrons that glow in a cathode ray tube, and do so from the negative terminal, or cathode, hence the name.

Cathode is a name used also today.
Because the name used to be "Corpuscles" as when J.J. Thompson called it using his cathode ray tube experiment, but the name was later renamed to electron. "elec" I think has something to do with negative charge and "tron" is the regular ending of a name of a particle in an atom.
Cathode rays are electron beams.
The alternative name for the negative electrode is the cathode.
A heated metal in a vacuum with an electrical charge can emit electrons. The filament is the part of the tube that gets hot. Some tubes use electrons emitted from the filament. Others use the filament to heat a metal cathode, causing it to emit electrons. The electrons flow to a positively charged "plate" electrode through the vacuum.
The Cathode is the negative electrode; the anode is the positive electrode
