From Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen's search for new kinds of radiation
resulted the discovery of the natural radioactivity of uranium by
Antoine Henry Becquerel in 1896. This event opened a new era of
science that can be considered as the beginning of nuclear
sciences. The findings of Pierre and Marie Curie of radium and
polonium as useful radiation source subsequently opened the way to
the first applications of radiation in medicine. Over the decades
and still today radiation has found broad applications in many
fields of science and technology. Not only chemistry, physics,
biochemistry and medicine are using relevant applications of
radioactivity. Biochemistry, agriculture, cosmo- and geochemistry,
archaeology, geology also are fields where radiochemistry still is
gaining importance. This book gives a survey about the history and
modern aspects of radioactivity, new synthetic elements, and
applications of radioactivity."
