Context may imply the sum of these Pu isotopes. QA Quality Assurance. QC Quality Control. Roentgen. A unit of exposure to ionizing radiation. It is that amount of gamma or X rays required to produce ions carrying 1 electrostatic unit of electrical charge in one cubic centimeter of dry air under standard conditions. rad Radiation absorbed dose. The basic unit of absorbed dose of ionizing radiation. One rad is equal to the absorption of 100 ergs of radiation energy per gram of matter. RADCON Radiation Control. RADLAB Radiation Laboratory. (Complex of trailers in which a radiation laboratory was established and used by DOE and ERSP contractorsat EA.) RCC Radiation Control Committee (of the JTG). REECO Reynolds Electrical and Engineering Company, Inc., operating contractor for the DOE at NTS. A special unit of dose equivalent. The dose equivalent in rems is numerically equal to the absorbed dose in rads multiplied by the quality factor, the distribution factor, and any other necessary modifying factors. Xxi
