This book explores the nature of ions produced by alpha rays through experiments involving oil-drops. The author uses a well-known method developed by Millikan, adding slight modifications to simplify the procedure. The author's experiments focus on determining whether doubly charged ions are produced during the ionization process, and if so, to what extent. The book delves into the relative stopping power of air and helium for alpha rays, finding their stopping power to be nearly equal, in accordance with the Bragg-Kleeman law. Ultimately, the book provides valuable insights into the ionization process and the nature of ions produced by alpha rays, contributing significantly to our understanding of atomic structure and the behavior of particles at the atomic level.
