OBITUARY of FREDERIC JOLIOT-CURIE
News of the death of the eminent nuclear physicist, resistance hero, and distinguished public servant Frederic Joliot-Curie has been received by this newspaper. His death occurred on August 14 in Paris following surgery for internal hemorrhaging. Joliot's health had been delicate since his infection with viral hepatitis two years previously. His death is a great loss to the Republic of France. Joliot was above-average in height with dark hair and dark eyes. He was very athletic and an avid skier, sailor, tennis player, hunter, and fisherman. With Joliot's skill in conversation and abundant charm, he will be greatly missed in scientific circles as well as in Parisian society. Joliot was born in Paris, France, sixth child of Henri Joliot and Emilie Roederer. At the age of ten he entered the Lycee Lakanal, a boarding school in the south of Paris. After the death of his father, he transferred to the Ecole Superieure de Physique et de Chimie Industrielle of the City of Paris. Though studying at an engineering school, he pursued basic science and Joliot was influenced by Paul Langevin to become a lifelong pacificist and socialist. He became an expert experimenter and graduated first in his class. In the spring of 1925, Joliot began his work at the Institut du Radium under the direction of the distinguished physicist Mme. Curie. He received his doctorate in 1930. At the Institut he conducted his initial research on the chemical properties of polonium. At this time he also met Irene Curie, daughter of Mme. Curie, who was an assistant at the Institut. They were married the following year, at which time they adopted the joint name Joliot-Curie in honor of Madame and Pierre Curie. The Joliot-Curies did not begin to collaborate closely on their research work until 1931.

    Artificial Production
    Of Radioactive Elements

    by Irene Joliot-Curie
    French Chemist/Nobel Laureate December 12, 1935 at Stockholm Concert Hall, Stockholm, Sweden It is a great honour and a great pleasure to us that the Swedish Academy of Sciences has awarded us the Nobel Prize for our work on the synthesis of radio-elements, after having presented it to Pierre and Marie Curie in 1903, and to Marie Curie in 1911, for the discovery of the radio-elements. I would like here to recall the extraordinary development of radioactivity, this new science which had its origin, less then forty years ago in the work of Henri Becquerel and of Pierre and Marie Curie. It is known that the efforts of chemists of the last century established as a fundamental fact the extreme solidity of the atomic structures, which go to make up the ninety-two known chemical species. With the discovery of the radio-elements, physicists found themselves for the first time confronted with strange substances, minute generators of radiation endowed with an enormous concentration of energy; alpha rays, positively charged helium atoms, beta rays, negatively charged electrons, both possessed of a kinetic energy which it would be impossible to communicate to them by human agency, and finally, gamma rays, akin to very penetrating X-rays. Chemists had no less astonishment as they recognized in these radioactive bodies, elements which had undergone modifications of the atomic structure which had been thought unalterable.

After having started her studies at the Faculty of Science in Paris, she served as a nurse radiographer during the First World War. She became Doctor of Science in 1925, having prepared a thesis on the alpha rays of polonium. She did important work on natural and artificial radioactivity, transmutation of elements, and nuclear physics. In 1938 her research on the action of neutrons on the heavy elements, was an important step in the discovery of uranium fission. She took a keen interest in the social and intellectual advancement of women. She died in Paris in 1956. Jean Frederic and Irene Joliot-Curie had one daughter , Helene, and one son, Pierre.

He was also a member of numerous foreign scientific academies and societies, and holder of an honorary doctor's degree of several universities. He was a Commander of the Legion of Honor. His recreations show him as a man of wide attainments, among which piano playing, landscape painting and reading were predominant. He was awarded the Nobel Prize jointly with his wife "in recognition of their synthesis of new radioactive elements". In 1937 he was nominated Professor at the College de France. He left the Radium Institute and had built for his new laboratory of nuclear chemistry the first cyclotron in Western Europe. After the discovery of the fission of the uranium nucleus, he produced a physical roof of the phenomenon; then he worked on chain reactions and the requirements and the requirements for the successful construction of an atomic pile using uranium and heavy water. On the death of Irene Joliot-Curie, in 1956, he became, while still remaining his professorship at the College de France, holder of the Chair of Nuclear Physics which she had held at the Sorbonne.

    Scientist's Legacy Inspires SF High School Students The San Francisco Unified School District is proud to announce its distinguished guest lecturer Dr. Helene Langevin-Joliot, granddaughter of the legendary French scientists, Marie and Pierre Curie . Dr. Langevin-Joliot carries on the tradition of her Nobel Prize winning grand-parents ( Nobel in Physics, 1903 Nobel in Chemistry, 1911 ) and parents, Irene Curie and Frederick Joliet (Nobel in Chemistry in 1935). Dr. Langevin-Joliot is a prominent scientist in her own right, a Professor of Nuclear Physics and Chemistry at the University of Paris, and a member of the scientific advisory committee to the French Parliament. Her talk, "The Curies, Radioactivity and Science Education," marks the first centennial since the discovery of radioactivity. Dr. Langevin-Joliot is a strong educational advocate, and she is especially concerned with improving science literacy for the general public. One of the main reasons for her visit to local high schools is to encourage more young women to pursue careers in science. Dr. Langevin-Joliot will talk about these issues and share her personal reflections as heir to the Curie legacy at the following engagements ( SFUSD in bold

    UN GENIO PREGUNTON
    CURIOSIDAD Y AUTORIDAD
    Pero, ¿cómo apoyar a la juventud, para que conserve esa curiosidad cuando no se conocen las respuestas? Esto provoca pánico en los adultos, que están convencidos de que siempre deben conocer todas las respuestas, a riesgo de perder autoridad. Como consecuencia, se eliminan las preguntas "amenazadoras".
    Esto es lo que algunos especialistas llaman la "educación bancaria", en la que las mentes de los jóvenes deben ser llenadas de datos y términos que, sin iniciativa propia, sin contexto, sin experiencia, sin ligamen emotivo, se borran rápidamente. O aún peor, solo se recuerdan como ámbitos oscuros, no inteligibles, temidos, solo accesibles a una élite "inteligente".

      Irène Joliot-Curie (1897–1956) had the unusual experience of attending for two years in her childhood a special school that emphasized science, organized by her mother, Marie Curie , and her scientific friends for their own children. She was still a teenager when she worked with her mother in the radiography corps during World War I. After the war she assisted her mother at the Radium Institute in Paris, meanwhile completing her doctorate. She married Frédéric Joliot (1900-1958), a young physicist who had come to work with her mother. The Joliot-Curies won the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1935 for their discovery of artificial radiation by bombardment of alpha particles (helium nuclei, He ) on various light elements. They correctly interpreted the continued positron emission that occurred after bombardment had ceased as evidence that "radioactive isotopes" of known elements had been created. These isotopes rapidly became important tools in biomedical research and in the treatment of cancer. The Joliot-Curies were the parents of a boy and a girl, both of whom became scientists—thus continuing a famous scientific dynasty.

    A DESCOBERTA DO NÊUTRON
    Nossos personagens: Irene e Frederico Joliot-Curie na França e James Chadwick na Inglaterra.
    Irene e Frederico Joliot-Curie Irene Joliot-Curie foi uma mulher extraordinária e, no entanto, pouca gente conhece sua história, talvez porque seu nome foi ofuscado pelo brilho de sua famosa mãe, Maria Curie. Tenho para mim, no entanto, que o talento da filha era parelho do da mãe, sendo que Irene era mais bela e elegante, além de ser uma corajosa socialista que desafiou os fascistas da Alemanha e dos Estados Unidos. Maria Curie teve duas filhas, Irene e Eva. Quando as conhecí, na Paris dos anos 30, eram duas belas jovens com uma diferença: Eva era uma intelectual vaidosa e um pouco fútil, enquanto Irene, de porte naturalmente elegante, era uma cientista compenetrada e trabalhadora que, como a mãe, preferia se vestir com sobriedade. Já seu marido e colaborador, Frederico Joliot, era um homem charmoso, de boa conversa, tão competente quanto a mulher. Os dois se conheceram quando Frederico, por indicação de seu orientador Paul Langevin, foi trabalhar no laboratório de Maria Curie, onde Irene já era uma assistente graduada. Se foi amor à primeira vista eu não sei. Só sei que, quando se casaram, Irene adotou o sobrenome do noivo, o que é natural, e Frederico adotou o sobrenome da noiva, fato incomum mas, a meu ver, bem romântico.
    Irene Joliot-Curie
    Frederico Joliot-Curie Frederico, seguindo os passos de seu ex-orientador, Paul Langevin, era comunista e colaborou com a resistência francesa durante a ocupação alemã. Irene passou alguns anos da guerra em um hospital na Suiça, tratando-se de uma tuberculose. Em 1943, ao tentar entrar clandestinamente na França, foi presa e teve de passar um tempo em um campo de refugiados. Após a guerra, a penicilina já disponível, recuperou a saúde e voltou às atividades científicas e políticas. Em 1948 foi detida ao chegar aos Estados Unidos onde pretendia pedir ajuda para refugiados espanhóis, vítimas de Franco. Novamente, teve de passar uns dias em um campo de prisioneiros até que a embaixada francesa conseguiu retorná-la à França.

    A DESCOBERTA DO NÊUTRON
    As experiências do casal Joliot-Curie com uma enigmática radiação neutra.
    A sucessão de idas e vindas que culminou com a descoberta do nêutron começou em 1928 com algumas experiências dos alemães Walter Bothe e seu aluno Herbert Becker. Eles usavam uma amostra radioativa que produzia partículas alfa. Essas partículas alfa, como vocês lembram, têm carga elétrica positiva (+2) e são muito energéticas. Hoje sabemos que elas são idênticas aos núcleos do elemento hélio, com dois prótons e dois nêutrons. Em 1928, porém, ninguém ainda fora apresentado ao nêutron. Bothe e Becker usavam as alfas para alvejar (ou "bombardear", como dizem os físicos) uma amostra de berílio, metal branco, leve e muito tóxico. Notaram, então, que o bombardeio das alfas produzia um novo tipo de radiação a partir do berílio. Logo, verificaram que essa radiação era eletricamente neutra, isto é, não se desviava na presença de cargas elétricas ou ímãs. Seguindo a lei do menor esforço, concluíram que essa radiação devia ser de raios gama. Como você lembra, raios gama são ondas eletromagnéticas, como a luz visível.
    Walter Bothe Frederico e Irene Joliot-Curie leram o artigo dos alemães e resolveram reproduzir a experiência. Eles dispunham de fontes mais poderosas de partículas alfa, as amostras de polônio purificadas pela mãe de Irene, Maria Curie. Nessa reprodução da experiência, observaram também o surgimento de uma radiação neutra partindo do berílio alvejado pelas alfas e foram na onda dos alemães admitindo que era radiação gama.
