Historical Background

Experimental Design/Data collection

  • Marie Curie, Pierre Curie, and Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity.
  • When they were experimenting with Uranium they eventually found out that it emitted radiation without an external source of energy.
  • Radioactivity is used everyday. And if it wasn't for these scientists we probably still would not be able to identify radioactivity.
