Canal rays experimental set up - a doubt in this

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the experimental setup for observing canal rays, specifically the location of the luminous stream of particles behind the cathode in a cathode ray tube. The participant sought clarification on whether the rays are observed to the right or left of the cathode. Through shared links, the user confirmed that the luminous stream is indeed observed to the right of the cathode, as illustrated in the provided images.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of cathode ray tubes (CRT)
  • Familiarity with the concept of canal rays
  • Basic knowledge of particle physics
  • Ability to interpret experimental diagrams and images
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the historical significance of canal rays in particle physics
  • Study the differences between canal rays and cathode rays
  • Explore the design and function of cathode ray tubes
  • Learn about the applications of canal rays in modern physics experiments
USEFUL FOR

Students of physics, educators teaching particle physics, and researchers interested in the historical experiments related to cathode ray tubes and canal rays.
