Roentgen (unit) One roentgen deposits of absorbed dose in dry air, or in soft tissue. One roentgen of X-rays may deposit anywhere from in bone depending on the beam energy. This tissue-dependent conversion from kerma to absorbed dose is called the F-factor in radiotherapy contexts. The conversion depends on the ionizing energy of a reference medium, which is ambiguous in the latest NIST definition. The roentgen has its roots in the Villard unit defined in 1908 by the American Roentgen Ray Society as "the quantity of radiation which liberates by ionisation one esu of electricity per cm of air under normal conditions
Wilhelm Loewenthal Moisés Ville, the first colony of the JCA. It has been proven by banking records that Lowenthal died in Berlin two years later, after leaving Brussels. In the colony, Lowenthal's name graces the principal thoroughfare. Wilhelm Loewenthal Wolff Wilhelm Lowenthal ( – ) was a Polish-born, naturalized French Doctor of Medicine. Born in Rybnik, Poland, after graduating from the University of Berlin, Lowenthal (or Löwenthal, with the umlaut), went to the Caucasus to continue his medical research. At the same time, he was Professor at the University of Geneva, in its branch at the Lausanne, Switzerland. He corresponded regularly with
