Geskiendenis
In 1853, Jean Charles Galissard de Marignac discovered samarium when he found lines in mineral spectra.

Paul Émile Lecoq de Boisbaudran isolated a samarium salt in Paris in 1879 from the mineral samarskite and identified a new element in it via sharp optical absorption lines.

The pure element was produced only in 1901 by Eugène-Anatole Demarçay.

Toepassings
Samarium's main use is in samarium-cobalt alloy magnets for headphones, small motors and pickups for some electric guitars.

Radioactive samarium-153 is used to kill cancer cells in the treatment of lung cancer, prostate cancer, breast cancer and osteosarcoma.

Samarium and its compounds are also used as catalyst and chemical reagent.
Samarium is considered to be moderately toxic
