Magnetic effects due to moving charges

Engineering Entrance , Medical Entrance , NEET , JEE Main , AIIMS , JEE Main & Advanced , Physics , Magnetism

As a force is exerted on a moving charged particle due to an applied magnetic field then a beam of either alpha particles or electron beam should show deviation and form a parabolic path,but it does not happens.Why?

I didn't understand it clearly ..! What are u saying ...does alpha particle doesn't possess deviation in magnetic field ??
If yes ..! Then let me tell u ...every charge particle passing through the arena of magnetic field will deviate from the path ..for sure ..!
Even electrons beam get deviated in magnetic field ..unless and until forces on them get balanced by external means ... otherwise there is a deviation always :)
