The Astronomy Center has provided educational resources to introductory astronomy educators since 2003. Over the past 20 years, the rapid pace of discovery has rendered some of our linked resources obsolete. Thus, the Astronomy Center will be decommissioned on March 1, 2022. Our highest quality resources will be retained on ComPADRE.org.
This series of web pages provides information on a range of topics regarding charged particles. Starting with the properties of atomic electrons, this material describes the Edison and photoelectric effects, the interaction between charged particles and magnetic fields, and the creation of plasmas and positive ions. Other topics, including the history of research on charges, are covered in linked pages. This is part of a series of non-mathematical, linked explorations of the Earth's Magnetosphere.
