Related definitions :
Radioactivity is how many nuclei decay every second. When an atom of a radionuclide decays every second, its radioactivity is 1 Beck [1] . In a cluster of fixed radionuclides, the value of Beco changes over time. Therefore, for short-lived radioisotopes, the radioactive decay sampling rate must be time stamped, and sometimes adjusted to a specific date (past or future date) [2]
Radioactivity can be determined by measuring the number of rays emitted by a radioactive source over a period of time.
The amount of radioactive material does not indicate the strength of the radioactivity. Only the size of the radioactivity can indicate the strength of the radioactivity of the substance. The greater the activity, the stronger the radioactivity. [3]
The original unit Curie Ci (1 Curie = 3.7 × 10 ^ 10 Beco) was also invalidated.
Becquerel was named after the famous French scientist Anthony Henry Becquerel. [4]
