This Brief documents the life, discoveries and inventions of the
chemist Carl Auer von Welsbach. Particular attention is given to
his pioneering work on the rare earth elements, including the
discovery of four new elements, which allowed him to develop new
materials, to invent new useful devices and to establish major
industries. From the invention of the incandescent gas mantle and
first electric incandescent lamps with metal filaments to the first
mass production of radium from pitchblende residues, readers will
learn the story of his notable legacy to the word through the lens
of his rare earths knowledge.
