Q.
Why couldn't the mysterious rays coming out of Beryllium foil in Chadwick's experiment on being hit by alpha particles have been gamma rays?
Those rays were not getting deflected by electric or magnetic field, unlike any other EM wave.
Those rays were travelling in a straight line whereas gamma rays are diffused.
Gamma photons are massless so we can't expect them to hit and displace a heavier particle like proton with such high energy.
I surely didn't understand this part from the videos
