Joseph John Thomson
Izvor: Wikipedija
Sir Joseph John Thomson (Cheetham Hill, Manchester, 18. prosinca 1856. - Cambridge, 30. kolovoza 1940.), britanski fizičar.
Istaknuo se po otkrićima iz područja elektrovodljivosti plinova. Mjereći odnos mase i električnog naboja čestica otkrio je da čestice u katodnim zrakama imaju i tisuću puta manju masu od bilo kojeg poznatog atoma. Razradio je i teoriju gibanja nabijenih čestica u električnom i magnetskom polju i primijenio je za separiranje različitih vrsta čestica iz smjese plinova kod kanalnih zraka.
Dobitnik Nobelove nagrade za fiziku 1906. godine kao priznanja za velike zasluge u teoretskim i eksperimentalnim otkrićima o prolaženju elektriciteta kroz razrijeđene plinove. Bio je predsjednik "Kraljevske akademije znanosti" u Londonu od 1915. do 1920. Zanimljivo je pridodati da mu je jedini sin George također dobitnik Nobelove nagrade za fiziku 1937. za eksperimentalno otkriće difrakcije elektrona u kristalima.
