Radioactivity is the process by which unstable atomic nuclei lose energy by emitting radiation. It is measured in becquerels (Bq) or curies (Ci) and is a critical concept in nuclear physics, medicine, and environmental science.
Example Conversions:
- 1 curie (Ci) = 3.7 × 10¹⁰ becquerels (Bq)
- 1 becquerel (Bq) = 1 disintegration per second
- 1 giga becquerel (GBq) = 10⁹ becquerels (Bq)
