thomson built a cathode ray tube . it was connected to an electrometer , a device for catching and measuring electrical charge . thomson wanted to see if , by bending the rays with a magnet , he could separate the charge from the rays . as thomson saw it , the negative charge and the cathode rays must somehow be stuck together : you cannot separate the charge from the rays .
thomson’s proposed torus was never constructed , and the main development of controlled fusion devices in britain , leading in 1957 to the operation of the zeta torus , followed instead the ideas of thonemann . but thomson’s proposal and subsequent lobbying were instrumental in establishing the british fusion program as the first in the world , and many of thomson’s ideas were developed by smaller teams at imperial college and later at the aei laboratories at aldermaston court . thomson himself remained active in the field through the 1950’s , and maintained a strong interest thereafter .
thomson’s papers are archived at trinity college , cambridge , and have been catalogued by the contemporary scientific archives centre , catalog no . 75 . the collection includes thomson’s unpublished autobiography , a substantial collection of correspondence , and many drafts of papers , some eventually published , others not .

j . j thomson proposed the plum - pudding model of the atom following his discovery of the electron . according to the plum - pudding model , the negatively charged electrons were dispersed randomly throughout a positively charged material , much like plums embedded in plum pudding .
in the 19th century the mass - to - charge ratios of some ions were measured by electrochemical methods . in 1897 the mass - to - charge ratio , [ m⁄e ] , of the electron was first measured by j . j . thomson . by doing this he showed that the electron—postulated earlier to explain electricity—was in fact a particle with a mass and a charge ; and that its mass - to - charge ratio was much smaller than that of the hydrogen ion h + . in 1898 wilhelm wien separated ions ( canal rays ) according to their mass - to - charge ratio with an ion optical device with superimposed electric and magnetic fields ( wien filter ) . in 1901 walter kaufman measured the relativistic mass increase of fast electrons . in 1913 , thomson measured the mass - to - charge ratio of ions with an instrument he called a parabola spectrograph . today , an instrument that measures the mass - to - charge ratio of charged particles is called a mass spectrometer .
the elite dropper will be offered in 30 . 9mm and 31 . 8mm sizes , and can be operated via a remote or seatpost - mounted lever . thomson’s cable - actuated remote is slim , unobtrusive and can be mounted on the right or left side of the handlebar .
thomson’s early scientific work fell into two classes . under his father’s supervision he worked at the cavendish laboratory and later at aberdeen on a range of gas discharge phenomena , in particular those involving positive rays . during and immediately after world war i , he devoted himself to aerodynamics .
thomson did not know , in 1926 , of elsasser’s speculation . but he may have known through his father ( who was however skeptical ) of the davisson and kunsman results . and in september 1926 , on his way back from a meeting of the british association for the advancement of science at oxford ( at which davisson was also present , but at which they apparently did not meet ) , he discussed with dymond in cambridge the latter’s work on the energy distribution of electrons after collisions with helium molecules . in the course of this work , dymond , who had read elsasser’s paper , had observed some patterns that suggested to him a wavelike diffraction of the electrons by the helium . strangely enough elsasser’s speculation does not seem to have been discussed by dymond and g . p . thomson—at least thomson did not later recall it having been so .
like all thomson’s products , durability and tight tolerances were the primary criteria when the company began development of the post . internally , a long - wearing hexagonal norglide bushing keeps side - to - side motion to the absolute minimum . a charged nitrogen chamber is used to control movement .
thomson is still experimenting with pressures in order to fine - tune the post’s rate of return . the company realizes that if a component has moving parts , wear and tear will be inevitable . to that end , both the bushing and nitrogen chamber can be serviced by an authorized center .
meanwhile davisson , whose visit to england had introduced him to be broglie’s theory , and germer had pursued their own analysis , and in a paper published in april 1927 ( before that by thomson and reid ) , they had interpreted their own results on the scattering of slow electrons by single crystals in terms of de broglie’s thoery . but the two investigations were essentially independent . credit for them should probably be shared not only between thomson and davisson ( who shared the noble prize ) but also between de broglie , elsasser , and dymond . davisson , it would seem had de broglie’s theory thrust upon him in england , and given elsasser’s speculation it required no great imagination to test the theory on his own , already existing experiments . thomson’s work was perhaps more original in this respect , but he too was essentially developing someone else’s suggestion , in his case dymond’s , which was itself influenced by elsasser’s speculation .
the royal society obituary cited above contains a select bibliography of thomson’s scientific articles and books , with many omissions and some misprints . his pricipal papers on electron diffraction are “diffraction of cathode rays by a thin film , ” in nature , 119 ( 1927 ) , 890 , written with a . reid ; “the diffraction of cathode rays by thin films of platinum , ” in nature , 120 ( 1927 ) , 802 ; and “experiments on the diffraction of cathode rays , ” in proceedings of the royal society ( a ) . 117 ( 1928 ) , 600–609 . for thomson’s fusion device see british patent no . 13963 / 46 .
ramsauer’s results dated from the early 1920’s and were quite widely regarded as problematic , but with the quantum theory of the atom itself in a state of ferment , it had seemed difficult and premature to draw any conclusions form them . a few physicists had however linked these results with others obtained by davisson and his collaborators , lester h . germer and charles h . kunsman , at the laboratories of general electric in america . in work stemming originally from a patent suit , davisson and kunsman in 1923 had found distinctive patterns in the scattering of slow electrons by metallic surfaces , principally platinum . and in 1925 davisson and germer found a rather different but still more distinctive set of patterns for scattering from single crystals . meanwhile , in the spring of 1925 , in the course of an investigation of de broglie’s theory in max born ’s physics seminar at göttingen , walter elsasser had suggested that the ramsauer and davisson and kunsman results might be interpreted as evidence of the wave nature of electrons , the scattering patterns corresponding to those to be expected from wave diffraction .
when asked why the company chose to feed the cable into the head rather than the collar – which would eliminate any change in cable length , regardless of what height the post is set at – thomson’s marketing manager david parrett noted that there are a number of benefits to routing the cable to the top of the seatpost .

in his later years thomson’s scientific activities were dominated by his popular articles and books , including the inspiration of science ( 1961 ) and the foreseeble future ( 1955 ) . he was a prolific writer and speaker on such subjects as science and religion , the education of scientists , and the place of scientists in society , with all of which he was passionately concerned .
but in 1897 , it was realized that cathode rays were in fact tiny charged particles , dubbed “corpuscles” by their discoverer , j . j . thomson of cambridge university , and now called electrons . by bending electrons in electric and magnetic fields , investigators could tell that they were negatively charged , and that the ratio of charge to mass , e / m , was the same for all electrons , and about 1700 times larger than that for the ionized hydrogen atom . thomson believed this was because the charge was the same , but the mass was some 1700 times smaller . measuring the charge on clouds of water droplets in a cloud chamber , he and his collaborators were able to determine that the charge on the electron , or at least the average charge on the electrons in a cloud , was roughly 10 - 19 coulombs ( the coulomb is the unit of charge in the metric system ) . this was consistent with his hypothesis that the charge on the electron was the same as that found in hydrogen . in 1906 , millikan began experiments at the university of chicago to attempt to measure individual electron charges , and with much greater accuracy than thomson and co - workers had been able to achieve . one of the great improvements was the use of oil drops instead of the cloud of water drops that thomson used . in millikan’s apparatus , the water drops would have quickly evaporated , whereas individual oil drops could be studied for a long time . millikan’s student harvey fletcher played an important role in implementing this improvement .
although he had from the first taken the initiative in respect to fission , thomson soon stepped down . he had been ill himself , and his wife was critically ill in america . in the autumn of 1941 he was appointed to ottawa as scientific liaison officer to explore the possibility of a team of british and french scientists transferring their nuclear reactor research from britain to canada , a move that duly took place . returning to england in 1942 after his wife’s death , thomson acted as deputy chairman of the radio board ( supervising radar research ) and scientific adviser to the air ministry . later , in 1946 , he also acted as adviser to the british delegation to the united nations atomic energy commission . but by that time he had become interested in a new topic , the peaceful application of thermonuclear fusion .
as an experimental confirmation of the quantum theory , the demonstration of electron diffraction was of the utmost importance . but by the time it occurred , quantum theory itself , in the form of the new quantum mechanics , was already making rapid progress . thomson followed the more straightforward developments of the new theory , writing the textbook wave theory of the free electron ( 1930 ) and treating schrödinger’s wave mechanics in his popular book the atom , published in the same year . but there was no natural development of thomson’s work at the forefront of that research . instead he turned to the exploration of the potential of electron diffraction as an investigative tool . first at aberdeen and then at imperial college , he studied such phenomena as electron diffraction by single crystals , and used high - voltage diffraction techniques to study the microscopic structure of surfaces . a significant part of the work of the department of physics at imperial college was focused on the practical improvement of diffraction techniques , and although thomson himself contributed relatively little directly to the enormous strides made in this respect , mainly by his students , he did supervise and direct this work and he did prepare with w . cochrane the definitive account of the subject , theory and practice of electron diffraction , published in 1939 .
apart from two postwar papers on effects produced by cosmic ray collisions , thomson’s fission paper and another joint paper of the same year with a student , moses blackman , who was working on the theory of electron diffraction , were his last significant original scientific publications . but there was one major unpublished piece of work to come , and his contributions through science , which were just beginning , were in some ways as significant as his contributions to science .

while thomson maintained his interest in electron diffraction , he also devoted increasing attention to the dramatic developments of nuclear physics in the 1930’s . a significant aspect of the attraction that electron diffraction had held for him had been related to its significance in the context of the developing quantum theory , which aroused his theoretical as well as his experimental interest . with the discovery of the neutron and the positron , and the splitting of the atom , in 1932 , followed by the discovery of artificial radioactivity two years later , the leading edge of physics moved from the mathematically obscure realm of quantum mechanics and quantum field theory to the equally taxing but more readily approachable area of nuclear physics , and thomson’s interest soon moved with it . with j . a . saxton he looked for artificial radioactivity from positron bombardment . and following enrico fermi ’s work on the effects of slow neutrons , he led a team of researchers , including p . b . moon and c . e . wynn - williams , in a study of the velocity distribution of slow neutrons . a deuteron beam was used to bombard a target of frozen heavy water , and the neutrons produced in the resulting deuteron - deuteron reactions were slowed down in paraffin . time - of - flight techniques were then used to measure the velocity distribution and absorption coefficients of the neutrons . then in 1939 , following the discovery of uranium fission , thomson led another team in a measurement of the neutron yield from fission reactions .
but the idea of a wave theory of the electron based on de broglie’s theory was discussed , and thomson , already deeply interested in de broglie’s work himself , saw how his work with positive rays might be adapted to test the idea . reasoning that the effect should be easier to analyze with a solid than with a gaseous target , and that some of the positive ray apparatus at aberdeen could be readily adapted for such an experiment , he asked alexander reid to look at the scattering of electrons through thin celluloid films ( 3 . 10 −6 cms ) onto photographic plates . the result was clear pictures of “halos” much as one would expect from a diffraction effect , and in a joint paper with reid , published in may 1927 , thomson wrote of celluloid as a “diffracting system” and of the electrons as having “wavelengths” given by de broglie’s theory . since the structure of celluloid was unknown , the experiment was not conclusive . so thomson next turned to metallic films of the same thickness , for which the crystal structure was known , and repeated the experiment for scattering from aluminum , gold , and platinum . he found that the dimensions of the observed diffraction patterns agreed in all cases , to within 5 percent , with those predicted by de broglie’s wave theory of matter . these results were published in brief in december 1927 and in detail two months later . suggestions that the phenomenon might be owing to classical x - ray effects were refuted in a subsequent paper .
max planck was born on april 23 , 1858 in kiel , germany . he studied at the universities of munich and berlin , and received his doctorate in philosophy at munich in 1879 . he started his work on thermodynamics which he published papers on . around 1894 , he had an interest on the problems of radiation processes . he was led to the problem of the distribution of the energy in the spectrum of full radiation . he observed wavelength distribution and the energy emitted by a black body to deduce the relationship between the energy and the frequency of radiation . in 1990 he announced that the energy emitted by a resonator could only take on discrete values or quanta . the energy for a resonator of frequency v is hv where h is a universal constant , now called planck ' s constant . his original constant number was quoted as (
robert millikan ' s major discovery was the charge of the electron ( see above ) , but he ' s discovered several other useful findings towards science and chemistry . he proved that the charge for electrons were constant for all in 1910 , shortly after executing the
falling - drop method
. in 1912 - 1915 millikan tested einstein ' s photoelectric equation . he then went on to be the first to make a photoelectric determination of plank ' s constant ( h ) . also in 1920 - 1923 robert millikan ' s work with hot - spark spectroscopsy of the elements led to an expansion of the ultraviolet spectrum . the new limit extended much farther down than the current known limit . millikan made several discoveries useful to society . lastly , his findings on the brownian movement in gases was a major change to society , since it ended opposition to the atomic and kinetic theories of matter .
george paget thomson , widely known as “g . p . ” was born and bred a cambridge physicist . his father was the famous physicist sir j . j . thomson ( “j . j . ” , ) cavendish professor of physics from 1884 to 1919 and subsequently master of trinity college . his mother was rose paget , daughter the of cambridge regius professor of physic sir george paget , and herself a physics student of j . j . ’s at the cavendish laboratory . g . p . grew up effectively an only child ( his sister joan was not born until he was eleven years old ) in the privileged environment of the cambridge elite . he attended king’s college choir school and the perse school , where he worn a scholarship to trinity college . at trinity he gained a double first in mathematics and physics , and after a year’s postgraduate work at the cavendish laboratory , he was elected a fellow and mathematical lecturer at corpus christi college in 1914 . during the war , from 1914 to 1918 , he served first with the queen’s regiment in france and then , from 1915 , with the royal flying corps at the royal aircraft factory at farnborough .
neil bohr first started experiments under j . j . thomson and he later went to study under ernest rutherford . after studying and experimenting with rutherford , neil bohr published his model of atomic structure in 1913 which introduced the theory of electrons traveling in orbits around the atom ' s nucleus and the chemical properties of the element being largely determined by the number of electrons in the outer orbits . neil bohr also introduced the idea that an electron could drop from a higher - energy orbit down to a lower energy - orbit , emitting a photon of discrete energy . this idea became the basis of the quantum theory .

thomson’s work on aerodynamics did not incorporate any great breakthroughs but was of considerable practical value . combining the skills of mathematician , engineer , and pilot , he concentrated on the application of aerodynamic theory to practical problems of flight , achieving a degree of coherence and completeness that the subject had not previously had . after the war , encouraged by henry tizard , he wrote up his own and other people’s work in the form of a comprehensive textbook , applied aerodynamics . having outlined the basic physical theory and experimental methods , he applied these to the aerodynamic performance of each part of an airplane’s structure , and then to the airplane as a whole . in the second part of the book , he gave a thorough mathematical analysis of aircraft stability .
just checked the arkefly website , they have 2 different longhaul config ' s , one for b763 ( so their legacy aircraft ) and one for b763winglet ( so yi ) star class has more legroom than their new premium class , thus i think its safe to say they ' ve not touched the config since it left tom as you say thomsonfly offered
extra
seats , which is purely because the front cabin ( ie between doors 1 and 2 ) is split partly premium and partly standard but the result of that is those 4 or 5 row have more legroom but a standard seat . thomson airways don ' t sell that any more with only 1 or 2 thomsonfly aircraft operating longhaul the rest being legacy fc aircraft , where the while front cabin is premium
that g . p . thomson should have demonstrated the wave nature of the electron was perhaps ironic , in view of the fact that it had been his father who had first demonstrated its particulate nature . but it was also fitting , in that the son’s interests had followed closely those of the father . in the 1920’s they were separated by hundreds of miles , but the two components of g . p . ’s electron diffraction work , quantum theory and gas discharge phenomena , were precisely the subjects in which j . j . himself was most interested . and while the electron diffraction work was going on , the two thomsons were in fact collaborating on a new edition of j . j . ’s classic work conduction of electricity through gases , published in 1928 under both their names .
thomson was elected a fellow of the royal society in 1930 , and served as a vice president in 1950 and 1951 . he received the hughes ( 1939 ) and royal ( 1949 ) medals of the society , together with the faraday medal of the institution of electrical engineers ( 1960 ) and a number of other honors and awards . he shared the 1937 noble prize in physics with c . j . davisson and was knighted in 1943 . from the beginning of world war ii onward he served on a range of government committees . among many other activities he was president of the society for freedom in science , and a vice president of the atomic scientists association . outside science and public service his main interest was in the voluntary euthanasia society , of which he was a vice president .
after a brief spell in the aircraft manufacturing company , thomson returned to cambridge and to corpus christi in 1919 . in 1922 he was appointed professor of natural philosophy at aberdeen university , and while there he married kathleen smith , the daughter of the principal of the university . they had four children , the youngest of whom was only two when , in 1941 , after a severe illness , kathleen died . g . p . did not remarry . meanwhile , in 1931 , he had been appointed professor of physics at imperial college , london , and he remained there apart form wartime assignments until 1952 . he then returned to cambridge as master of corpus christi college , retiring from this position in 1962 . apart from a period of illness in the late 1930’s , he enjoyed generally good health and remained active into his eighties .
by 1926 thomson had accumulated a good body of research , but with nothing spectacular to show for it . in the course of that year , however , his experimental work on positive rays and his theoretical work on the quantum theory began to come together . on the theoretical side he was greatly impressed by the work of de broglie , and in the summer of 1926 he used de broglie’s theory to compare the broadening of spectral lines owing to pressure on the classical and quantum theories . ( he had not yet encountered erwin schrödinger’s wave mechanics , though he did so shortly afterward , and had either not encountered or not taken up the matrix mechanics of werner heisenberg and others . ) meanwhile , pursuit of the discrepancy between observation and theory in the scattering of slow positive rays led him to compare the observed phenomena with those noted earlier by carl wilhelm ramsauer , in which slow electrons appeared to pass unhindered straight through an atomic nucleus .

“for one thing , it allows us to use a larger cartridge , which has proven to be more reliable , ” he said . parrett also mentioned that it would be a relatively minor redesign to flip the orientation of the cartridge within the post , allowing the cable to run out of the bottom of the seatpost and opening up the possibility of an internally routed version in the near future .
