  1. 2. His work, called a "classical example of the scientific method," was the second and last of his independent publications.
  2. 5. Suggested that mesons and baryons are composites of three quarks or antiquarks.
  3. 10. His theory proposed that all matter was composed of atoms.
  4. 12. Measured the charge on an electron with the apparatus shown below.
  5. 14. Discovered the wave nature of electrons and suggested that all matter have wave properties.
