Radioactivity Converter

Convert radioactivity between becquerel, curie and their multiples.

Radioactivity — the rate at which a source decays — is measured in becquerels (one decay per second) in SI, and in the older curie in medicine and industry. The two scales are worlds apart: one curie equals 37 billion becquerels, originally defined as the activity of one gram of radium.

This converter moves any activity between becquerel, kilo/mega/gigabecquerel, curie, millicurie and microcurie instantly, useful for interpreting radiopharmaceutical doses, sealed-source labels, and lab measurements that mix the SI and traditional units.
