Rep to Coulomb per kilogram Converter

Use this page to convert rep values into coulomb per kilogram, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.

Rep

A legacy unit defined as the dose of any ionizing radiation that results in the absorption of 93 ergs per gram of tissue.

History: Introduced in the 1940s to extend the roentgen to radiations other than X-rays/gamma rays.

Current use: Obsolete, replaced by the rad and subsequently the gray.

Also written as rep.

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.
