Schematic drawing of the apparatus used in Thomson's first experiment. Cathode rays pass from the tube in the upper left into the larger bulb, where they are deflected with a magnetic field. When they are bent so as to enter the slits in the cylinders, the electrometer measures the charge transferred to the cylinder.
