Sievert

The sievert is a unit of equivalent radiation dose in the SI system, equal to the equivalent dose if the dose of absorbed ionizing radiation, multiplied by a conventional dimensionless factor, is 1 J/kg. Since different types of radiation cause different effects on biological tissue, the weighted absorbed dose of radiation, also called equivalent dose, is used; it is obtained by modifying the absorbed dose by multiplying it by the conventional dimensionless factor adopted by the International Commission on X-ray Protection. Currently, the sievert is increasingly replacing the obsolete physical equivalent of the X-ray (PER).

A sievert is a unit of measurement for the equivalent or absorbed dose of ionizing or photon radiation. The unit of sievert (Sv) and its multiple: mSv - millisievert, is a thousand mSv. A rem is the biological equivalent of an x-ray, equal to 0.01 Sv. Sievert symbol - Sv:

Sv - aBZE (absolute biological sievert, equal to a conventional sievert) or sv - eDZ (equivalent sievert). The word sievert has two meanings: Units in Si and Neon star "γ" or "Si". In the International System of Units, the sievert is the main factor in measuring the equivalent and absorbed dose of radiation, just as the mole is the main factor in measuring the amount of a substance. The sievert can be represented as a unit of energy, which, when divided by the kinetic energy of nuclear particles, gives their average interaction energy in matter. Due to its simplicity, the sievert has become the most commonly used unit for measuring effective radiation dose. The unit of equivalent sievert or ZEv was used to measure the same phenomenon as
