Protons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of atoms, with a positive charge that balances electrons. Ernest Rutherford is credited with discovering them in 1918. The number of protons determines an atom’s properties and atomic number. Antiprotons were discovered in 1955, and protons are useful for experimentation. A proton is a subatomic particle found […]
Proton magnetometers detect changes in magnetic fields by detecting proton activity and are used in various applications, including archeology, mineral exploration, ship navigation, and space exploration. They can identify ferrous materials and are often used to locate wrecks and other objects. They can also provide information about planets and other formations in space. A proton […]
