Here you see an electron beam be deflected by a magnetic field. Will it go the right way? I can't wait to find out!

    WHAT HE SAID WAS I can actually show you that with a real charged beam. So this is an evacuated tube and it puts a big negative potential on this electrode. So high that it actually boils, electrons come off the electrode and makes just a beam of electrons. It also has some ionized, a little bit of a background gas that ionizes to keep everything stable and doesn't charge up too much. But mostly you have electrons flying off this electrode and most of them go straight to this metal plate and that's the end of the story. But there's a little slit in the plate. So some of them get through and make a beam that keeps going. So you've got a beam of electrons and this little plate is tilted a little bit so they slowly along this direction they crash into the plate. The plate has a phosphor on it so it lights up when they crash into the plate. So when I turn it on, there you can see the beam. That's a beam of electrons flying through the tube. So what we're going to do is bring a magnet and see what it does to the beam of electrons because remember this bar magnet, the field lines go from the north pole, the red is the north pole to the south pole. So if we just think about the poles or the field right at the ends because we're going to use the ends, it will be this way near the north and it will be pointing in in the south. So I will bring the north pole pointing at me at the beam and let's see what that will be. We have the beam going this way and I'm going to bring this pointing in so we're going to have a B field like this. So V cross B also the same as this. It should be up. So let's see what happens. There's our beam and I bring in this magnet. There's the deflection we hope for but it's down and it's down and why is it down? It's down because they're electrons. Q in this case equals negative E. The charge is negative. When the charge is negative the force magnitude is negative which means it goes the opposite direction. So right hand rule says it's up for positive but the force is down. for an electron. So it did deflect the right way. It deflected down. We can also check. We can take and aim the south pole at the beam. So here we go. Bring in the south pole. And there it goes. It deflects up, just like you'd expect. Because when you're bringing the south pole, the magnetic field is pointing the opposite direction. Now I'm bringing in a field that's pointing away from the beam. So it would seem that the charged particle beam really is deflected the direction that you would expect.

    @Physierge 1: if a moving electron creates a magnetic field, why don't the moving electrons create a magnetic field that gets pulled toward or away from the bar magnet instead of getting pushed up or down? 2: why does the moving electron behave as though is creates no magnetic field? 3: is the bar magnet really pushing the electron beam up or down because thats how a magnetic field interacts with an electric field?

    The electron beam itself would create a magnetic field, and the electrons in the beam can even affect each other (both electric and magnetic forces). But these forces are all small compared to that of the bar magnet and they are not sufficient to affect the beam's momentum, so the particles move forward until the bar magnet pushes them.

    Could this be that the magnetic field changed the angular momentum of the charged particles? What would happened if you were to point the magnet from top or from bottom? If my theory is correct, the path of the charged particles would still follow the path.

    Well the magnetic field does create an angular velocity for the electron thus creating angular momentum. And for pointing the magnet from top or bottom, the particles will move either right or left to it's original path according to the right hand rule.

    At a basic level this is how fluorescent lights work. Rather than a beam of electrons, a large voltage is applied to "shake them free" of gas atoms, and then they accelerate and crash into gas atoms to emit light. Most of that light is UV, which excites phosphors on the walls of the fluorescent light (the reason they look white), which converts it to visible.

    An electron is only affected in motion. The formula is Q*v×B, the charge times the vector (cross) product of velocity and Flux density of the m-field. It is a great part of Einstein's ToR to understand how the motion of the electron plays in relativity.

    doesn't the cathode radiates its excess energy to be amplified by the only exit available thru the little slit to the ions in the tube, similar to a laser, and the cathode provides a path for the energy to flow back into. And what we see are not electrons but the radiation emitted as visual light from the ions in the vacuum tube. Is there other demonstration with zero ions insides the tube? Zero ions as measured at zero kelvin, no free ions energy in the vacuum which can demonstrate the flow of energy current only by the emission of "electrons".

    The source of an electron beam is usually a sharp metal wire that is heated and held at a strong negative potential. The thermal energy and electric field pull electrons out fo the metal. But electron beams are very limited in air at atmospheric pressure, so they are usually made in a vacuum tube.
