disintegrations/second

Unit Definitions:

disintegrations / second

dps

Contextual Explanation

Direct physical counting unit describing the explicit number of atomic nuclear disintegrations (decays) taking place per second within a sample.

Practical Applications

Absolute radioactivity calculations, detector counting efficiency calibration formulas, and primary fundamental standardization of radioactive test sources.

becquerel

Bq

Contextual Explanation

The standard SI derived unit of radioactivity. Defined as exactly one nuclear disintegration or decay event per second.

Practical Applications

Baseline radioisotope sample measurements, international environmental radiological survey reporting, and standard nuclear physics laboratory research.

Example Calculation

To convert 1 disintegrations/second [dps] to becquerel [Bq]:
• Conversion factor: 1 disintegrations/second [dps] = 1 becquerel [Bq]
