Dear Friends
in speacking about radioactivity, the mind go immediately to known phisicists like Rutherford: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernest_Rutherford , Bequerel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henri_Becquerel
to the Mme and Mr Curie : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Curie ,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Curie and Fermi: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enrico_Fermi but practically nobody knows Phillipp Lenard
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philipp_Lenard although he was Nobel prize in 1905 for his works on the fluorescence and radioactivity.
The exhibition Konstruierte Wirklichkeit - Philipp Lenard 1862 - 1947 Biographie - Physik - Ideologie at the Bibliothek of the Deutsches Museum helps to fill up this gap of knowledge.
The idea of the exhibition arrived to the organisers because of the discovery in the caves of the Deutsches Museum of an old forgotten box containing Lenard's original papers and devices invented and used by him in his experiments. Any comment on your side is welcomed.
Salutations
