Counts per minute dose reading. This modifies the tube characteristic so each count resulting from a particular radiation type is equivalent to a specific quantity of deposited dose. More can be found on radiation dose and dose rate at absorbed dose and equivalent dose. Disintegrations per minute (dpm) and disintegrations per second (dps) are measures of the activity of the source of radioactivity. The SI unit of radioactivity, the becquerel (Bq), is equivalent to one disintegration per second. This unit should not be confused with cps, which is the number of counts received by an instrument from the source. One dps (one dpm)
Geometrized unit system have the geometric dimension of "length". Physical quantities such as angular momentum which can be identified with the magnitude of a bivector have the geometric dimension of "area". Here is a table collecting some important physical quantities according to their dimensions in geometrized units. They are listed together with the appropriate conversion factor for SI units. This table can be augmented to include temperature, as indicated above, as well as further derived physical quantities such as various moments. Geometrized unit system A geometrized unit system or geometric unit system is a system of natural units in which the base physical
