What does milligray per second measure?

Milligray per second quantifies the rate at which ionizing radiation energy is absorbed per unit mass per second.

When would I use teragray per second units?

Teragray per second is used in research involving ultra-high dose rates such as pulsed radiation sources or high-energy physics experiments.

Why is the conversion factor so small between mGy/s and TGy/s?

Because teragray per second represents an extremely high dose rate, one milligray per second equals one times ten to the negative fifteen teragray per second.
