= Marie Curie papers
{tag=Marie Curie}
Under <publication by Marie Curie>{full} I did a quick overview of the <papers> in which <Marie Curie> and collaborators publish the existence of new elements <polonium> and <radium>. Both are very understandable (except the <chemistry>), and have some cute terminology. I also cited those papers on her <Wikipedia> page: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Marie_Curie&diff=1240252528&oldid=1238097626 Another good exercise in "old paper finding" + "Wikipedia markup/rules" as I looked at the <Comptes rendus de l'Académie des Sciences> a bit.

This was kickstarted by <YouTube> recommending me the following good video:

{title=The RaLa Experiment by Our Own Devices}
which led me into yet a quick <nuclear physics> binge. I shouldn't do this to myself. I also ended up writing some tentative answers on <Quora>:
* https://www.quora.com/During-fission-are-the-gamma-rays-always-exactly-the-same-frequency/answer/Ciro-Santilli[During fission, are the gamma rays always exactly the same frequency?]
* https://www.quora.com/How-many-times-stronger-is-plutonium-than-uranium/answer/Ciro-Santilli[How many times stronger is plutonium than uranium?]
