| 41. | Upon short irradiation, this mixture is dominated by curium-246, and then curium-248 begins to accumulate.
|
| 42. | Curium is a hard, dense, silvery metal with a relatively high melting point and boiling point for an actinide.
|
| 43. | When introduced into the human body, curium accumulates in the bones, lungs and liver, where it promotes cancer.
|
| 44. | The table to the right lists the critical masses for curium isotopes for a sphere, without a moderator and reflector.

| 46. | Obtaining Curium-244 : For many of the reactions described above, curium metal is provided by an outside retailer.
|
| 47. | It is primarily composed of unconverted uranium as well as significant quantities of transuranic actinides ( plutonium and curium, mostly ).
|
| 48. | During his Manhattan Project research in 1943, Glenn T . Seaborg experienced unexpected difficulties in isolating the elements americium and curium.
|
| 49. | Reduction by Hydrogen Gas : A solution of curium trichloride is evaporated to dryness with pure nitric acid to produce curium nitrate.
