Charged particles like the electron are seen in cloud and bubble chambers by the tracks they leave when interacting with a medium. see here physics.stackexchange.com/questions/520183/… | |

So apart from observing and confirming its presence by measuring it's properties can I theoretically ever see the particle? Now I might be the dumbest person on PSE but is it possible? | |
