Thomson's work on electrons. It details how power outages disrupt electricity flow and describes Thomson's experiments with cathode ray tubes, which identified cathode rays as streams of electrons. His findings, including their deflection by magnetic fields and a consistent charge-to-mass ratio across substances, were pivotal in advancing atomic theory.
