Inter-conversion of curies and Becquerels
Purpose of this page
This page allows you to convert between different units of radioactive. However, while many people use
cps or cpm, it is not easy to convert these values into curies or Becquerels, since it changes with make
and model of detector and the distance the detector is from the source. This conversion depends on
the isotope and equipment used and can only be done with reference to the Geiger counters manual.
One disintegration per second equals 1 Becquerel and 1 curie (Ci) equals
disintegration
per second, therefore
To convert a value between the different units, enter the measurement, select the current units and
press the calculate button.
