What is the exagray unit used for?

Exagray is primarily used in theoretical physics and astrophysics for expressing extremely large absorbed radiation doses, such as those from gamma-ray bursts or nuclear explosion modeling.

Why convert from exagray to microgray?

Conversion helps link extremely large theoretical radiation dose data to practical measurements like environmental or medical low-dose monitoring expressed in microgray.

Can typical instruments measure radiation in exagray?

No, most measurement devices are not capable of detecting doses at the exagray scale, limiting its use to theoretical calculations.
