Description:	More than a century ago Thompson determined the mass-to-charge ratio of the electron and established its fundamental nature. It remains the only one of the sub- atomic particles that has not been subdivided. Simultaneously, Tswett initiated the study of modern chromatography. Fifty years later Lovelock observed that the reac- tion of molecules with thermal electrons greatly perturbed ionization currents gen- erated by radioactivity in air. This led to the electron capture detector (ECD) and inextricably bound chromatography and the reactions of thermal electrons with molecules.
