What is an attogray per second?

It is a unit of absorbed radiation dose rate equal to 10^-18 gray per second, representing extremely low radiation levels.

When should I use teragray per second?

Teragray per second is used to measure ultra-high absorbed dose rates in scenarios like pulsed radiation sources and high-energy physics.

Can I compare values directly between attogray/second and teragray/second?

Because these units represent vastly different dose magnitudes, direct comparisons require careful contextual interpretation.
