My experiments proved that the radiation of uranium compounds can be measured with precision under determined conditions and that this radiation is an atomic property of the element of uranium.

During the course of my research, I had had occasion to examine not only simple compounds, salts and oxides, but also a great number of minerals.

The first experiments on the biological properties of radium were successfully made in France, with samples from our laboratory, while my husband was living.

I tried out various experiments described in treatises on physics and chemistry, and the results were sometimes unexpected. At times, I would be encouraged by a little unhoped-for success; at others, I would be in the deepest despair because of accidents and failures resulting from my inexperience.

This (scale) should be determined according to China's real conditions.

Direction coupling between the various radiations generated in a nuclear reaction both with one another and with the initiating radiation can also be detected and measured by coincidences; this provides valuable information about the structure of the atomic nuclei.
