Radium emits alpha, beta, and gamma radiation.
Alpha radiation is fully ionized helium nuclei. Beta radiation is high energy electrons. Gamma radiation is very high energy electromagnetic radiation. All of these can do significant damage to living things.

What causes uv rays?
Ultra-violet radiation from the sun is caused by the high temperature of the sun, which in turn is the result of nuclear fusion. High temperatures cause sub-atomic particles to vibrate rapidly, and vibrating electrons give off electromagnetic radiation. The faster the electrons vibrate, the higher the frequency, and the higher the energy content of the radiation that they radiate.

Elements whose atoms give off radiation are called?
Radioactive elements give off radiation. The emission of radiation occurs when an unstable atomic nucleus tries to become stable. Some examples of radioactive elements are radium, curium, nobelium, rubidium, and polonium.

Why radium is important?
Radium does not only give off light but heat as well. That heat can be used for power generation.
What discoveries were made by Marie currie?
1) The elements polonium and radium. 2) The concept of radio-activity; ie, that individual atoms of a single element would give off radiation, even if no chemical reaction was going on. 3) Cancer cells are killed off more quickly by radium than healthy cells.
