A physicist whose uranium experiments helped establish radioactivity. His 1896 photographic plate tests separated exposure to the material from immediate illumination; the cautious interpretation in his report is part of the story of Becquerel's uranium-radiation experiment. He held the chair of applied physics at the Paris Museum of Natural History.[ref]

A physicist and chemist whose investigation of radioactivity joined sensitive measurement to chemical separation. She moved from Warsaw to Paris to study, later becoming a professor of physics. The Curie ionization-current measurement shows the experimental craft behind the work: balancing a tiny electric current against a calibrated electric charge. She shared the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics and received the 1911 prize in chemistry.[ref]

A physicist who investigated magnetism, piezoelectricity and radioactivity. He built delicate balances, electrometers and piezoelectric crystals; this work on instruments helped make weak electrical effects measurable. With Marie Curie, he investigated radioactive substances under difficult laboratory conditions. The Curie ionization-current measurement illustrates how such instrumentation can turn a small signal into a quantitative comparison.[ref]
