His findings and publications greatly improved the efficiency of many 19th century industrial [...] was so controversial that he could not find a scientific journal to publish it. It first appeared in a local Manchester newspaper. Finally he published a paper in the Proceedings of the Royal Society describing [...] ions move to a zinc or iron plate, become chemically attached and deliver charge. By carefully measuring currents, Joule was able to find the “affinity” of oxygen with plates of various elements

From this finding, Dalton formu- lated another law [...] to emit such radiation. There were several more astonishing findings, among them the transformation of one element into another in the process of an α- or a β-decay, recounted in the follow- ing anecdote [...] smaller ones. Together with Strassmann, Hahn finally published his findings and pointed out that for him, as a chemist, he had to state that the resulting isotopes behaved like barium; yet, he claimed
