   Fluence
   In physics, `fluence` is defined as the number of particles that intersect a unit area . Its units are m-2 (Number of particles per meter squared). In particular, it is used to describe the strength of a radiation field, in which case the unit used is J/m2. It is considered one of the fundamental units in dosimetry. It has two equivalent definitions: 1) Imagine that an infinitesimal sphere of cross sectional area d`a` is impinged upon by d`N` ...
