Disintegrations per second

The number of atomic nuclei that decay in one second.

History: A descriptive name for the rate of radioactive decay.

Current use: Used in physics and chemistry to describe activity directly.

Also written as dps, disintegrations per second.

Microcurie

One microcurie is equal to one millionth of a curie (1.0E-6 curies), or 37,000 becquerels.

History: Standard metric prefix applied to the curie.

Current use: Used for measuring small amounts of radioactive tracers and lab samples.

Also written as µCi, uCi, microcuries.
