In 1878 William Crooks carried out discharge tube experiments and discovered new radiations and called them cathode rays. Since these rays travel from the cathode towards anode. Later, J.J Thomson studied the characteristics of cathode rays and concluded that cathode rays are negatively charged particles, now called electrons. The name electron was given by Johnson Stoney.
