Marie Curie's birthplace, 16 Freta Street, Warsaw, Poland. Maria Salomea Skłodowska-Curie [a] (Polish: [ˈmarja salɔˈmɛa skwɔˈdɔfska kʲiˈri] ⓘ; née Skłodowska; 7 November 1867 – 4 July 1934), known simply as Marie Curie (/ ˈ k j ʊər i / KURE-ee; [1] French: [maʁi kyʁi]), was a Polish and naturalised-French physicist and chemist who conducted pioneering research on ...
1983: Kary Mullis invents the polymerase chain reaction, a key discovery in molecular biology; 1986: Karl Müller and Johannes Bednorz: Discovery of High-temperature superconductivity; 1988: Bart van Wees and colleagues at TU Delft and Philips Research discovered the quantized conductance in a two-dimensional electron gas.
July 28 – Marie and Pierre Curie announce (at the French Academy of Sciences) discovery of a substance they call Polonium. December 26 – Marie and Pierre Curie announce discovery of a substance they call radium. It is the only moment where 5 elements are discovered the same year. Emil Fischer synthesizes purine.
P. and M. Curie: 1910 Marie Curie and André-Louis Debierne: The Curies reported on 26 December 1898, a new element different from polonium, which Marie later isolated from uraninite. [159] In September 1910, Marie Curie and André-Louis Debierne announced that they had isolated radium as a pure metal. [160] [161] 86 Radon: 1899 E. Rutherford ...
1898: Thorium radioactivity was discovered independently by Gerhard Carl Schmidt and Marie Curie. [53] Vector calculus was invented independently by the American, Josiah Willard Gibbs (1839–1903), and by the Englishman, Oliver Heaviside (1850–1925).
Marie Curie’s Paris lab, where the Polish-born Nobel laureate pioneered groundbreaking research, gets a reprieve from demolition. Let’s keep the legacy of this extraordinary scientist alive ...
1903 – Antoine Becquerel, Pierre Curie and Marie Curie share the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics for their work on spontaneous radioactivity. 1904 – Richard Abegg notes the pattern that the numerical difference between the maximum positive valence, such as +6 for H 2 SO 4 , and the maximum negative valence, such as −2 for H 2 S, of an element ...
