What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to change measurements of absorbed radiation dose rates from centigray per second (cGy/s) to hectogray per second (hGy/s), enabling comparisons between different magnitudes of radiation energy deposition.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in centigray per second (cGy/s) that you want to convert.
  • Select the units to convert from and to, specifically centigray/second to hectogray/second.
  • Submit the input to get the equivalent absorbed dose rate in hectogray per second (hGy/s).

Key Features

  • Converts radiation dose rates between centigray/second and hectogray/second units.
  • Browser-based and easy to use with straightforward input and output.
  • Supports conversions relevant for medical, industrial, and research radiation applications.

Examples

  • 50 cGy/s equals 0.005 hGy/s using the conversion factor 0.0001.
  • 200 cGy/s converts to 0.02 hGy/s following the same conversion formula.

Common Use Cases

  • Comparing dose rates from medical radiotherapy beams to industrial radiation processing levels.
  • Evaluating beam delivery and dose rates in radiobiology and accelerator experiments.
  • Modeling extreme radiation exposure scenarios for safety and quality control purposes.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Be mindful of the large scale difference between centigray and hectogray units when interpreting results.
  • Use this conversion especially when moving from typical clinical or research doses to high-dose industrial rates.
  • Consider measurement precision due to the very small values obtained after conversion.

Limitations

  • Conversions result in very small numbers, so careful attention to significant figures is needed.
  • Hectogray per second units are rare in normal clinical or research contexts and mainly used for very high-dose applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does centigray per second measure?
It measures the absorbed dose rate of radiation energy deposited in matter, equal to 0.01 gray per second.

In which fields is hectogray per second commonly used?
It's mainly used in industrial radiation processing, accelerator experiments, and modeling extreme accidental radiation exposures.

How do I convert cGy/s to hGy/s?
Multiply the centigray per second value by 0.0001 to obtain the equivalent value in hectogray per second.

Key Terminology

Centigray per second (cGy/s)
A unit of absorbed radiation dose rate equal to 0.01 gray per second, indicating the rate of energy deposition in matter.
Hectogray per second (hGy/s)
A derived SI unit of absorbed dose rate equal to 100 gray per second, used for very high radiation dose rates.
Absorbed Dose Rate
The amount of radiation energy deposited in a unit mass per unit time, measured in units like cGy/s or hGy/s.
