"Measurements of the specific ionization of both the positive and negative particles, by counting the number of droplets per unit length along the tracks, showed the great majority of both the positive and negative particles to possess unit electric charge"
- Carl D. Anderson
About this Quote
This quote by Carl D. Anderson is describing a scientific experiment that was conducted to determine the electrical charge of both positive and negative particles. The experiment involved counting the variety of beads per system length along the tracks of the particles. The outcomes of the experiment showed that most of both the positive and unfavorable particles had a system electric charge. This experiment was very important in understanding the electric charge of particles and how it impacts their behavior. It also offered insight into the nature of electrical charge and how it is distributed amongst particles. This experiment was a significant development in the field of particle physics and assisted to further our understanding of the universe.

"To be really great in little things, to be truly noble and heroic in the insipid details of everyday life, is a virtue so rare as to be worthy of canonization"
"Having soon discovered to be great, I must appear so, and therefore studiously avoided mixing in society, and wrapped myself in mystery, devoting my time to fasting and prayer"
