Excerpt from Rontgen Rays: Memoirs by R�ntgen, Stokes, and J. J. Thomson

The most important experiments, however, and those which have led to the most important conclusions, were made by Pro fessor J. J. Thomson, of Cambridge. They proved the fact that a dielectric traversed by these radiations became a con ductor, or, in other words, was ionized. This discovery in the hands of Professor Thomson and his students has led to a series of most interesting and important researches, all bearing upon the intimate connection between matter and electricity.
