* The gray (Gy) is the accepted SI unit equivalent to the energy imparted by ionizing radiation to a mass Of energy corresponding to one joule/kilogram.
t The becquerel (Bq) is the SI unit of radioactivity; 1 Bq = 1 disintegration/s.
§ Temperature may be reported in degrees Celsius as well as degrees kelvin.
