has he been honored in any way for his work?
Yes, he was awarded the Hector Memorial Medal.
Ernest Rutherford
In 1916, he was awarded the Hector Memorial Medal. 
where are electrons found in an atom and what electrical charge and mass do they have An electron can be "bound" to the nucleus of an atom by the attractive Coulomb force.  If the number of electrons is different from the nucleus' electrical charge, such an atom is called an ion. which theory explains or is based on this? Atomic Theory, Quantum Theory what exactly is the part of the atom mentioned above, initially? The electron is a subatomic particle, whose electric charge is negative one elementary charge. who discovered that it has two charges? French chemist Charles François du Fay what is this particle mentioned above? Subatomic particles are smaller than atoms. They can be composite particles, such as the neutron and proton; or elementary particles, which according to the standard model are not made of other particles. what method is used to divide the atom? Nuclear physics where was the chemist mentioned above born? France did he publish any books? Yes, All Du Fay's publications appeared in the journal "Histoire de l'Académie Royale des Sciences: avec les mémoires de mathématique & de physique pour les mêmes années" who are some well -known scientists in the branch of physics mentioned above? Ernest Rutherford, Hans Geiger what was the former's contribution to this field of study? He came to be known as the father of nuclear physics. He discovered the concept of radioactive half-life, the radioactive element radon, and differentiated and named alpha and beta radiation.

Ernest Rutherford [SEP] Later years and honours
Rutherford was knighted in 1914. During World War I, he worked on a top secret project to solve the practical problems of submarine detection by sonar. In 1916, he was awarded the Hector Memorial Medal. In 1919, he returned to the Cavendish succeeding J. J. Thomson as the Cavendish professor and Director. Under him, Nobel Prizes were awarded to James Chadwick for discovering the neutron (in 1932), John Cockcroft and Ernest Walton for an experiment which was to be known as "splitting the atom" using a particle accelerator, and Edward Appleton for demonstrating the existence of the ionosphere. In 1925, Rutherford pushed calls to the New Zealand Government to support education and research, which led to the formation of the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR) in the following year.
