Google Scholar and JSTOR are great places to search, as well as the online encyclopedias I've shown you. Always feel free to send me an email if you have questions about sources or formatting.

After observing the gas for a while Dorn discovered that radium produces a gas when it breaks apart. Dorn first called the gas “Radium Emanation”,Emanation meaning something given off. In 1923, seven years after Dorns death scientists changed the name “Radium Emanation” to Radon. Referring to where the gas comes from, Radium.
