Roentgen (Traditional Exposure Unit)

Introduction : The original unit of radiation exposure, defined by ionization in air. Still widely used in medicine (1 R ≈ 2.58×10⁻⁴ C/kg).

History & Origin : Named after Wilhelm Röntgen, discoverer of X-rays (1895). Defined in 1928 as the quantity of radiation producing 1 esu of charge per cm³ of dry air.

Current Use : Remains standard in radiography (chest X-ray ≈ 0.01 R) and radiation safety in some countries, despite SI transition.

Roentgen Equivalent Physical

Introduction : An outdated unit attempting to bridge exposure (roentgen) and absorbed dose (~93 ergs/g ≈ 0.93 rad).

History & Origin : Developed in 1940s before clear distinction between exposure and absorbed dose was established.

Current Use : Occasionally found in older radiation protection documents, but deprecated in modern practice.
