The expertise of Marie Curie's trade
- Paris 1898. In July, Marie and Pierre Curie boyfriends published an article in which they unveiled an unknown element until then. They gave him the name of Polonius, remembering the homeland of Mary. Before the end of the year, the couple presented a new chemical element: radio.
In the laboratory notebooks, Marie detailed the results of each of the phases of the process. At home, he also had notebooks to collect his expertise with scientific precision, obsessively. For example, the notebooks let us know the price of the fabric with which Pierre made the shirt. Her daughter Irène was one of Mary's favorite objects. She regularly traversed the diameter of her daughter's head with traces and carefully noted the result. In the same month that polonium was introduced, Irène said “gogli gogli go” and in January 1899 he had fifteen teeth.
The kitchen was also a lab for the Nobel Double Prize. In 1898, after preparing the jealousy of currants, he wrote the following recipe/experiment: “I took four kilos of fruit and another four kilos of crystallized sugar. I boiled it all for ten minutes and passed the mixture over a little brow. I got fourteen high-quality dishes, it didn’t get transparent and it got really good.”
Marie Curiere didn't think of making recipes with her discoveries, but others did. For years, they used radioactive components to produce toothpaste or laxantes.En in the years leading up to their death, Marie Curie expressed her discomfort that these products were not used with due diligence. For him it was too late to start acting with caution. Most of Marie Curie's documents, including recipes, are still very radioactive and stored in lead-lined boxes.
