Expand plez! edit

Langevin is an important figure and this article could be expanded and more links to various subjects to which he contributed can be added. The biography of Einstein by Fölsing offers some salacious details on Langevin's affair with Marie Curie. But this is nothing compared to the love life of Erwin Schrödringer. But I digress... ---CH 00:36 & :37, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

Marie Curie edit

How is that in this article he 'supposedly' had an affair with Marie Curie, but in her article it was written as she 'had conducted an affair of about a year's duration' with him?? What a double standard Brattysoul (talk) 17:15, 12 February 2009 (UTC)Reply


I have tried to add sources for the affair with Marie Curie (which created such a scandal when she was cited in his divorce that she left France to stay with Suffragettes in England). I have failed to penetrate the editing process so here are 2 published , well referenced sources. Reference to the affair with Marie Curie is found in [1] and in [2]

Schrodinger's activities , as described in Hitler's Gift by Margaret Medawar are astounding.

I added the source and sources I found elsewhere. At present the affair is by far the best sourced thing in the article, which is perhaps not ideal.--T. Anthony (talk) 10:45, 3 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
