Coulomb per kilogram
The amount of radiation that creates one coulomb of charge in one kilogram of dry air.
History: Replaced the roentgen as the standard unit for radiation exposure in the SI system.
Current use: Used in radiation protection and dosimetry to measure the ionizing ability of X-rays and gamma rays in air.
Also written as C/kg.
Microcoulomb per kilogram
One microcoulomb per kilogram is equal to one millionth of a coulomb per kilogram (1.0E-6 C/kg).
History: Standard metric prefix applied to the SI unit.
Current use: Used for precise measurements of low-level radiation exposure.
Also written as µC/kg.
