In 1897 J.J. Thomson called electrons corpuscles,
although the term electron had been introduced in 1894 by
George Johnstone Stoney to explain the chemical properties of
atoms and the electron had been theorized since 1838 by Richard
Laming. The electron not only carries the unit of electrical
charge but also causes chemical bonds and magnetic fields.
