What was the main experimental technique used by Kendall?
Electron scattering
Proton collision
Neutron diffraction
Photon emission
Answer
Electron scattering was the primary experimental technique employed by Kendall. This method involves directing a beam of high-energy electrons at a target material and analyzing the scattered electrons to gain insights into the structure and dynamics of the target. By studying the scattering patterns and energy distributions of the electrons, researchers can infer information about the atomic and molecular composition, electronic properties, and chemical bonding within the material.
