That talc metals are constantly flowing energy due to their unstable nuclei. The energy flowing from it is called radiation. Such substances are called radioactive substances. Radioactivity was discovered by a scientist named Henry Becquerel. Scientists like Druthar Ford, Madame Curie and others did more research after that. Becquerel was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1904 for his discovery.

Henry Becquerel was born on December 16, 1917 in Paris. Her father and grandfather were scientists. After completing his secondary education at the local Louis Le Grand School, he joined Ecole Polytechnic.

In 1918 he was appointed to an important position in the National Museum of History. He began his career as an engineer in government pool and road construction. He also discovered that uranium was a metal that constantly transmitted radiation. In 1904 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in partnership with Pierre and Marie Curie.

In addition to the Nobel Prize for his contributions to science, Becquerel has received numerous honors such as the Rumford Award, the Hemhotz Medal, and the Bernard Medal. He died on August 8, 1908. He is said to have died prematurely from adverse effects on his body during radio activity experiments.
