Pair of 1 proton & 1 neutron is called as 1 nucleon
Protons , neutrons & electrons are called as the fundamental particles or primary particles . Among them electron was the 1st particle which was discovered by the man
Electron or Cathod rays : Electron was discovered by J.J.Thomson. Cathod rays were discovered in discharge tube at the pressure 0.001mm by J.J. Thomson. Hence received the noble prize in physics.
Cathod rays are 1st observed by PLUCKER, but discovered experimentally by J.J.Thomson
