Answer:

Irene Joliot-Curie and Frederic Joliot

Step-by-step explanation:

When Irene Joliot-Curie and Frédéric Joliot bombarded a thin piece of aluminum with alpha particles (helium atom nuclei) in 1934, a new kind of radiation was discovered that left traces inside an apparatus known as a cloud chamber.
