Radiation History to the Present—Understanding the Discovery of the Neutron (1x1)

Yayınlanma tarihi: Eyl 20, 2019

A brief summary of the discovery of forms of ionizing radiation up to the 1932 discovery of the neutron. We introduce mass-energy equivalence for the first time and explain how these cutting-edge experiments (for their time) conclusively proved the existence of high-energy, ionizing radiation.
