The Curies published their paper, describing the newly discovered element -- that they named "radium" -- on 1898 December 26. Their work was conducted in Paris France.
Radium was discovered and named in 1898 by Marie Curie, Pierre Curie and Gustave Bemont; the name radium is derived from the Latin language word radius (equivalent to radiation).

Polonium was discovered by Marie Curie and Pierre Curie in 1898. Radium was discovered by Marie Curie, Pierre Curie and G. Bemont also in 1898. Studying residues of uranium ores Marie Curie and Pierre Curie found that these residues are more radioactive than uranium; they attributed this radioactivity to unknown elements. They isolated these elements and named these elements polonium and radium.
The name radium is derived from the Latin language word radius (equivalent to radiation).
