In 1897 when Henri Becquerel researched the newly discovered X-rays it led to studies of how uranium salts are influenced by light. By accident, he discovered that the uranium salts spontaneously emitted a penetrating radiation that could be registered on a photographic plate. Further studies made it clear that this radiation was something new not the same type as X-rays. He had discovered a new phenomenon - radioactivity. Maire and Pierre Curie discovered polonium and radium and were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 for their joint research on radiation. She made numerous scientific discoveries including showing that radiation did indeed come from the atom itself rather than an interaction between molecules.
