Eugene Goldstein (18501930) was a German physicist. He was an early researcher in X-rays. 1850 was a common year starting on Tuesday (see link for calendar). ... 1930 (MCMXXX) was a common year starting on Wednesday (link is to a full 1930 calendar). ... ... In the NATO phonetic alphabet, X-ray represents the letter X. An X-ray picture (radiograph) taken by Röntgen An X-ray is a form of electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength approximately in the range of 5 pm to 10 nanometers (corresponding to frequencies in the range 30 PHz...


Johann Wilhelm Hittorf observed tubes with energy rays extending from a negative electrode. These rays produced a fluorescence when they hit the glass walls of the tubes. In 1886 the effect was named "cathode rays" by Goldstein. Johann Wilhelm Hittorf (March 27, 1824 – November 28, 1914) was a German physicist, born in Bonn, who observed tubes with energy rays extending from a negative electrode. ... An electrode is a conductor used to make contact with a nonmetallic part of a circuit (e. ...

In 1886, Goldstein noted that cathode-ray tubes with a perforated cathode emit a glow from the end of the tube near the cathode. Goldstein concluded that in addition to the electron, or cathode rays, that travel from the negatively charged cathode toward the positively charged anode, there is another ray that travels in the opposite direction, from the anode toward the cathode. Because these rays pass through the holes, or channels, in the cathode, Goldstein called them canal rays. 1886 (MDCCCLXXXVI) is a common year starting on Friday (click on link to calendar) // Events January 18 - Modern field hockey is born with the formation of The Hockey Association in England. ...
