This is a set of mysteries dedicated to some of the greatest scientific minds.
Marie Skłodowska Curie (7 November 1867 – 4 July 1934) was a Polish and naturalized-French physicist and chemist who conducted pioneering research on radioactivity. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win twice, and the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two different sciences, both Physics and Chemistry.
Her achievements include the development of the theory of radioactivity (a term that she coined). Radioactivity is the property of unstable atomic nuclei to transform spontaneously. The process releases energy (usually by emitting ionizing radiation). She also developed techniques for isolating radioactive isotopes, and discovered two elements, ? and ?.
The sum of the atomic numbers of these elements = BCA.
Use the formula for exponential radioactive decay, discovered by Ernest Rutherford, to calculate DE, the number of days (rounded down) for 250 Curium-242 particles to decay into 211. Use a half-life of 163 days.
Her legacy lives on in the cancer research institute and hospice charity bearing her name. The Curie family (including Marie) have also amassed a record number of F Nobel Prizes in total.
