Back in Time • 1893 and 1894 – Marie Curie earns a Masters degree in Physics and Mathematics (age = 19) • 1895 – Roentgen discovers x-rays.
Back in Time • 1893 and 1894 – Marie Curie earns a Masters degree in Physics and Mathematics (age = 19) • 1895 – Roentgen discovers x-rays. What are x-rays?
X-rays are short wavelength electromagnetic radiation. Energy Figure 2.6 (p. 75)

The Curies and Radium • Saw radium as a potential for an anti-cancer agent (1,000,000 times more radioactive than uranium) • Refused to patent this discovery for humanitarian reasons.
Back in Time • 1903 – The Curies (Marie and Pierre) discover polonium and radium. • 1903 - The Curies and Becquerel win the Nobel Prize in physics • 1911 – Marie Curie wins second Nobel Prize • 1934 – Marie Curies dies from leukemia
Early Researchers About 40% of the early radioactivity researchers died of cancer. At the time, why was this surprising?
