search visiting exhibitions online let's talk ... bibliography marie curie and the history of radioactivity Pierre Curie (1859-1906) Pierre Curie met Marie Sklodowska when he was 35 years old and already an internationally recognised physicist. With his brother Paul-Jacques, he discovered piezo-electricity: the fact that crystals under pressure produce electric currents. He also studied crystal symmetries and the magnetic properties of bodies at different temperatures. His papers had been well received by distinguished colleagues but he was still an outsider in the French academic community. Like Marie he did not care for outward distinctions or a career. They married in July 1895. Pierre followed his wife's work closely and he and his brother made her an electrometer which measured weak electrical currents, based on the piezo-electric effect. After the exciting results of Marie's early experiments Pierre abandoned his passionate study of crystals to join her in her search for new substances. He continued to construct pieces of laboratory equipment such as the ionisation chamber pictured below. Together they laboured Marie carrying out the chemical separations and Pierre taking the measurements. Together they discovered polonium and radium and used the word 'radioactivity' for the first time. enlarge A quadrant electrometer constructed by Pierre Curie (on display) enlarge A quadrant electrometer constructed by Pierre Curie (on display) This sensitive device was developed by Pierre Curie for investigations into radioactivity. The chamber consists of a positive and negative plate connected by an electrometer. Radiation ionises the air in the chamber. The breakdown of air molecules into positive and negative ion pairs allows them to act as carriers of electric current. The negative ions migrate to the positive plate and the positive ions to the negative plate. This causes a weak electric current to flow which can be measured on the electrometer. The level of radioactivity will determine the strength of the current.

PIERRE CURIE Scientist Pierre Curie was a 19th century French scientist whose work with his wife, Marie Curie , led to some of the most important discoveries in modern physics and chemistry. After an unconventional education at home, Curie attended the Sorbonne in Paris, where he became an assistant teacher in 1878. By 1880 he and his older brother, Jacques, had earned notice for their work demonstrating the electrical potential of quartz crystals when pressure was applied, a phenomenon called piezoelectricity. Pierre took a post at the Paris Municipal School of Industrial Physics and Chemistry and went on to do important work in magnetism, including the discovery that there is a critical temperature at which the magnetic properties of a substance disappear (called the Curie point or Curie temperature). In 1895 Pierre married Marie Sklodowska, and together they made groundbreaking advances in the knowledge of radioactive elements, including the discovery of polonium and radium. They shared a 1903 Nobel Prize in physics with Henri Becquerel for their painstaking work with radioactive elements, and in 1904 Pierre was given a professorship at the Sorbonne. He died unexpectedly in 1906 after being run over in Paris by a horse-drawn carriage.

The discovery of these elements laid the foundation for future discoveries in nuclear physics and chemistry. Marie Sklodowska was born on November 7, 1867, in Warsaw, Poland. Her early years were strongly influenced by her parents, who were both educators. She later joined with Faculty of Sciences at the Sorbonne. This made Marie the first woman to teach at the university level in France. The Nobel Prizes Marie Curie was the first woman to win two Nobel prizes.

Marie and Pierre Curie Pierre and Marie Curie are best known for their pioneering work in the study of radioactivity, which led to their discovery in 1898 of the elements radium and polonium. Marie Curie, born Maria Sklodowska in Warsaw, Poland, on Nov. 7, 1867, d. July 3, 1934, spent many impoverished years as a teacher and governess before she joined her sister Bronia in Paris in order to study mathematics and physics at the Sorbonne, earning degrees in both subjects in 1893 and 1894. In the spring of the latter year she met the physicist Pierre Curie. They married a year later, and Marie subsequently gave birth to two daughters, Irene (1897) and Eve (1904). Pierre Curie, b. May 15, 1859, d. Apr. 19, 1906, obtained his doctorate in the year of his marriage, but he had already distinguished himself (along with his brother Jacques) in the study of the properties of crystals. He discovered the phenomenon of piezoelectricity, whereby changes in the volume of certain crystals excite small electric potentials. Along with work on crystal symmetry, Pierre Curie studied the magnetic properties of materials and constructed a torsion balance with a tolerance of 0.01 mg. He discovered that the magnetic susceptibility of paramagnetic materials is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature (Weiss-Curie's law) and that there exists a critical temperature above which the magnetic properties disappear (curie temperature).

JLab science writer, Melanie O'Byrne, spoke with Langevin-Joliot during the recent International Symposium for Spinal Radiography at Georgetown University An excerpt of the interview follows. What do you do when you're not traveling around the world, speaking about your family? I try to save part of my time for research. My fields of interest are exotic nuclei and highly excited hole states in medium and heavy nuclei. I don't travel too much. I generally speak about the Curies and Joliot-Curies in lectures on radioactivity and its applications, on nuclear physics, science, research or women in science, either for the general public or students. Visits to high schools are occasions for meeting kids, telling them stories and answering questions. I think that improving the public scientific culture is a major challenge of our time. Showing that science is a human adventure, not only equations and techniques, may help.

IRENE JOLIET-CURIE After reading the accomplishments of this brilliant, dedicated scientist we wondered why we had heard so little of her before. She was overshadowed by those around her. She was overshadowed by Nobel laureate parents Marie and Pierre Curie, by co-laureate and husband Frederick J.-C., by physicist daughter Helene ,who married to Paul Langevin's grandson, and by biochemist son Pierre Joliet. In some ways she was even overshadowed by non-scientist sister Eve Denise Curie, who wrote the 1937 biography of her mother that inspired so many of us. This overshadowing, which has threatened to mask the significance of Irene's work, is illuminated poignantly, and perhaps unintentionally, by Francis Carter Wood, writing in Science Monthly in 1938: "Marie Curie by her chemical discovery of the element radium inaugurated what may be called modern physics, and it must have been to her a marvelous satisfaction that her daughter, Irene Joliet-Curie, has followed in her footsteps, making one discovery after another, which would render the name Curie imperishable had her mother never been famous." (1) He goes on to say, "It remains to Marie the singular distinction among women of having made the most revolutionary discovery in atomic physics."

THE ORCBS Radiation Safety Figures In Radiation History polonium and radium , but it took four more years of processing tons of ore under oppressive conditions to isolate enough of each element to determine its chemical properties. For their work on radioactivity, the Curies were awarded the 1903 Nobel Prize in physics. Tragically, Pierre was killed three years later in an accident while crossing a street in a rainstorm. Pierre's teaching position at the Sorbonne was given to Marie. Never before had a woman taught there in its 650 year history! Her first lecture began with the very sentence her husband had used to finish his last. In his honor, the 1910 Radiology Congress chose the curie as the basic unit of radioactivity; the quantity of radon in equilibrium with one gram of radium (current definition: 1Ci = 3.7 x 10 dps). A year later, Marie was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry for her discoveries of radium and polonium, thus becoming the first person to receive two Nobel Prizes. For the remainder of her life she tirelessly investigated and promoted the use of radium as a treatment for cancer. Marie Curie died July 4, 1934, overtaken by pernicious anemia no doubt caused by years of overwork and radiation exposure.
