Jigsaw Puzzle : Radioactive emission from radium
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Radioactive emission from radium
Radium alpha particles. Coloured image of the radioactive emission of alpha particles from radium. A speck of radium salt was placed on a special emulsion on a photographic plate; when developed, the emulsion reveals the yellow tracks of alpha particles emitted by the radium. Radium is the most powerful radioactive substance known; it emits radiation a million times more intensely than uranium. It was discovered by the French scientists Marie and Pierre Curie in 1898

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of radioactive emission from radium. The image showcases the coloured trails left behind by alpha particles as they are emitted from radium, revealing a stunning display of yellow tracks on a photographic plate. Radium, discovered by French scientists Marie and Pierre Curie in 1898, is renowned as the most powerful radioactive substance known to humankind. Its radiation intensity surpasses that of uranium by a staggering million times. This photograph serves as a testament to its immense power and significance in the field of nuclear physics. The process behind this striking image involves placing a speck of radium salt on a special emulsion coating on a photographic plate. After development, the emulsion unveils these vivid yellow tracks created by alpha particles emitted by radium. Not only does this photo offer an aesthetic appeal with its vibrant colors and intricate patterns, but it also provides valuable insight into radioactivity made visible. It allows us to witness firsthand the behavior and movement of alpha particles at an atomic level. Science Photo Library has once again captured an extraordinary moment in scientific history through this remarkable image, reminding us of humanity's continuous quest for knowledge about our world's fundamental building blocks.
