What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms radiation activity measurements expressed in one/second [1/s], the SI derived unit also known as becquerel, into the historical rutherford unit. It helps users interpret and translate activity data between modern and obsolete units.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the radiation activity value in one/second [1/s].
  • Select one/second [1/s] as the input measurement unit.
  • Choose rutherford as the target unit for conversion.
  • Click convert to see the equivalent radioactive activity in rutherford.

Key Features

  • Converts activity from one/second [1/s] to rutherford (Rd).
  • Supports scientific and historical radiation measurement comparisons.
  • Browser-based and simple to use.
  • Facilitates understanding of legacy nuclear and radiochemistry records.

Examples

  • 1 1/s equals 0.000001 rutherford.
  • 1,000,000 1/s converts to 1 rutherford.

Common Use Cases

  • Compare current radiation activity measurements to historical rutherford data.
  • Translate scientific reports or experiments documented before SI units usage.
  • Analyze early nuclear experiment results and radiochemistry literature.
  • Use in educational settings to demonstrate pre-SI radioactivity units.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure correct entry of one/second [1/s] values for accurate conversion.
  • Use this tool primarily for historical or research purposes involving obsolete units.
  • Be aware of the large scale difference between units when interpreting results.
  • Refer to modern SI units for current standard radiation activity measurements.

Limitations

  • Rutherford is an outdated unit no longer used in modern science.
  • Conversions can be less relevant outside historical or specialized contexts.
  • Large magnitude difference may cause less meaningful results for low activity values.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does one/second [1/s] represent in radiation activity?
One/second [1/s] is the SI derived unit of activity representing one radioactive decay event per second, equivalent to one becquerel (Bq).

Why convert from one/second [1/s] to rutherford?
Converting to rutherford aids comparison or interpretation of historical radiation data recorded before SI units were widely adopted.

Is the rutherford unit still used today?
No, the rutherford is an obsolete unit largely replaced by the becquerel in modern radiation measurements.

Key Terminology

One/second [1/s]
An SI derived unit of radioactive activity equal to one occurrence or decay per second, synonymous with becquerel (Bq).
Rutherford (Rd)
An obsolete unit of radioactive activity equal to one million disintegrations per second (1 MBq), used historically in nuclear and radiochemistry contexts.
Becquerel (Bq)
The SI unit for measuring the activity of a radioactive source, defined as one decay per second.
