The God Particle
Whispers of the AtomBy Raphael Wolftone Quinlivan Masters
Length15h 36m
About this audiobook
The late 19th century was a period of unprecedented scientific ferment, a time when the seemingly solid foundations of classical physics were being probed and, in some cases, found to be less immutable than once believed. The atom, long considered the fundamental, indivisible building block of matter—a concept championed by John Dalton and so elegantly explaining the laws of chemical combination—was beginning to show signs of internal complexity. The work of Michael Faraday had already hinted at the deep connection between electricity and matter, suggesting that electrical forces were intimately involved in the very structure of atoms. These intellectual currents converged in the experimental investigations of cathode rays, a phenomenon that would soon lead to a discovery that would irrevocably alter our understanding of matter: the electron.
