Marie Curie was born in Poland, on November 7th, 1867. When she was young, she became interested in physics and read as many books as she could on the subject. At that time women were not admitted to universities in Poland, so Marie was determined to go to Paris and study there. She arrived in Paris in 1891. She had very little money to live on,ate very little and was always cold in winter. There was a small fire in her room,but she had to carry coal up six floors and wear an overcoat in her small room to keep warm. She succeeded in taking a first class degree in physics two years after arriving inPairs. After graduation she took another degree in mathematics. In 1895 she married Pierre Curie, a very bright scientist who was teaching at the School of Physics and Industrial Chemistry at Paris. Marie started to do research, even though she had very little equipment and no money. Not long before another scientist had found that uranium gave off rays, so Marie decided to study this area for her doctor's degree. She gave these rays a new name“radioactive”. One day she made an important discovery. There was a certain mineral which was even more radioactive than uranium. Therefore, she decided, it must contain some other matter that no one had yet discovered. In 1898 she discoveredthe first of these new redioactive minerals, which she named“polonium”in honour of her motherland—Poland, and on which she wrote a research paper.
Madame Curie will always be remembered as the discoverer of radium.
