The alpha ray is made up of 2 neutrons and 2 protons, As the neutrons have no charge and the protons are positively charged the alpha ray is positively charged.

Alpha Rays are doubly charged Helium atoms.

Ernest Rutherford a well known Physicist also used it in his experiment well known experiment Gold Foil experiment.
