Kerma

Kerma logo #21000[physics] The SI unit of kerma is the gray (Gy) (or joule per kilogram), the same as the unit of absorbed dose. However, Kerma dose is different from absorbed dose, according to the energies involved, partially because ionization energy is not accounted for. Whilst roughly equal at low energies, kerma is much higher than absorbed dose at hi...
