Tips & Best Practices
-
Use this conversion for theoretical or simulation contexts involving very large radiation doses
-
Confirm input values are in teragray for accurate results
-
Apply conversions mainly when expressing extremely large doses compactly
-
Avoid using these units for practical radiation protection or medical dose measurements
Limitations
-
Teragray and exagray units represent extremely large absorbed doses mostly theoretical in nature
-
Not used for typical radiation safety or medical applications
-
Precision beyond these units is generally unnecessary
-
Practical dose measurements usually employ smaller units like gray, kilogray, or megagray
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does 1 teragray equal in exagray?
-
1 teragray equals 0.000001 exagray.
-
In which fields are teragray and exagray commonly used?
-
They are mainly used in astrophysics, nuclear physics, and high-energy physics for theoretical radiation dose modeling.

Key Terminology
-
Teragray (TGy)
-
An SI-derived absorbed dose unit equal to 10^12 grays, used for extremely large energy depositions in radiation studies.
-
Exagray (EGy)
-
An SI-derived absorbed dose unit equal to 10^18 grays, employed in theoretical or scientific contexts to express extraordinarily large doses.
-
Gray (Gy)
-
The SI unit of radiation absorbed dose, defined as one joule of energy absorbed per kilogram of matter.
