What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms absorbed dose rate measurements from hectogray per second (hGy/s) to centigray per second (cGy/s), enabling users to express very high radiation dose rates in a finer scale suitable for medical, industrial, and experimental applications.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in hectogray per second (hGy/s) you wish to convert
  • Select the target unit as centigray per second (cGy/s)
  • Click the convert button to obtain the equivalent value in cGy/s
  • Use the result for calibration, dosimetry, or radiation safety assessments

Key Features

  • Converts absorbed dose rates from hGy/s to cGy/s seamlessly
  • Uses a large conversion factor of 1 hGy/s = 10,000 cGy/s
  • Supports applications in radiation processing, radiotherapy, and accelerator physics
  • Provides clear examples for straightforward calculations
  • Browser-based and easy to use without installation

Examples

  • Convert 2 hGy/s: 2 × 10,000 = 20,000 cGy/s
  • Convert 0.5 hGy/s: 0.5 × 10,000 = 5,000 cGy/s

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying high dose rates in industrial radiation treatments like sterilization
  • Measuring beam delivery rates in external-beam radiotherapy procedures
  • Calibrating dosimeters for medical physics and radiobiology research
  • Characterizing radiation exposure rates in accelerator testing
  • Estimating rapid energy deposition for safety evaluations in radiation environments

Tips & Best Practices

  • Double-check large numerical conversions to avoid calculation errors
  • Use appropriate calibration standards depending on the radiation context
  • Ensure specialized equipment and trained personnel handle high dose rate measurements safely
  • Apply conversion results only within relevant industrial, medical, or experimental scopes

Limitations

  • Large conversion factor may cause numerical overflow or errors if not handled carefully
  • Units are indicative of very high dose rates requiring expert handling
  • Calibration standards vary by clinical or regulatory contexts and must be observed carefully

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 1 hGy/s represent?
One hectogray per second equals 100 gray per second, measuring a very high absorbed radiation dose rate.

Why convert from hGy/s to cGy/s?
Converting to centigray per second expresses dose rates on a finer scale suitable for calibration and measurement in medical and industrial settings.

Are these units used in medical applications?
Yes, cGy/s is commonly used for beam dosimetry and radiotherapy source calibration.

Key Terminology

Hectogray per second [hGy/s]
A unit of absorbed dose rate equaling 100 gray per second, representing very high radiation dose rates.
Centigray per second [cGy/s]
An absorbed dose rate unit equal to 0.01 gray per second, used for precise radiation energy deposition measurements.
Absorbed Dose Rate
The rate at which ionizing radiation energy is deposited per unit mass in matter, expressed in gray units per second.
