Abstract
A stream of electrons is superposed upon a beam of alpha-particles. The alpha-particles are then deflected by a magnetic field and counted by the scintillation method. Alpha-particles which have captured electrons will not be deflected to the point where observation is made, and consequently, the decrease in scintillations will indicate the number of captures which occur.Keywords
