Introduction:
Alpha and beta particles, positrons, neutrons, gamma rays and X-rays are known as ionizing radiation. They eject electrons of another atom which they interact. The amount of radiation exposure that is harmful can be measured by the sievert (Sv) an SI unit. It is used to measure the effect of biological damage.
Nuclear radiation can be harmful to everyday life. The sievert (Sv) unit is used to measure the effect of biological damage. Millirem is another unit to measure biological damage. Therefore, one Sv is equal to
