Becquerel presented the problem to Marie and Pierre Curie for further study. Their conclusion was that a nuclear reaction was taking place within the uranium atoms. Marie Curie named this spontaneous emission of radiation by an unstable atomic nucleus radioactivity. [Pg.746]

Nuclear chemistry is very much in the news today. In addition TO APPLICATIONS IN THE MANUFACTURE OF ATOMIC BOMBS, HYDROGEN BOMBS, AND NEUTRON BOMBS, EVEN THE PE.A.CEFUL USE OF NUCLEAR ENERGY HAS BECOME CONTROVERSIAL, IN PART BECAUSE OF SAFETY CONCERNS ABOUT NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS AND ALSO BECAUSE OF PROBLEMS WITH DISPOSAL OF RADIOACTIVE WASTES. IN THIS CHAPTER WE WILL STUDY NUCLEAR REACTIONS, THE STABILITY OF THE ATOMIC NUCLEUS, RADIOACTIVITY, AND THE EFFECTS OF RADIATION ON BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS. [Pg.903]
