贝可勒尔

定义

SI放射性活度单位,等于每秒一次核衰变事件(1 Bq = 1 s⁻¹)。

解释

Named after Henri Becquerel, who discovered radioactivity in 1896. The human body contains about 8,000 Bq of radioactivity from potassium-40 and carbon-14. The older unit curie (Ci) equals 3.7×10¹⁰ Bq. Fukushima reactor cores at peak released roughly 10¹⁸ Bq (1 exabecquerel). Safe drinking water limits are typically set at a few Bq/L.
