What is a proton?
Now that the basic characteristics of the Proton have been established I went on to outline the progression of developments that led to the discovery of the Proton.
Discovery of the Proton Glog
My third and final Glog looks at one experiment in particular and examines the way it was set up and the drastic effect it had on the discovery of the Proton.
Rutherford's Experiments
