Best Answer

Curium is very scarce and expensive; today curium has only limited applications:

- isotopes 242Cm and 244Cm are used as alpha particles sources for α-spectrometers mounted on spacecraft engines to analyze planetary or cosmic samples.

- precursor in the preparation of 238Pu and of isotopes of Sg, Hs, Cf, etc.

In the past some other uses were proposed.
