Calculating U-233 Radiation Exposure: 20mSv/yr Equivalent Dose

[Orjuan]

how many grams of U-233 (halflife of U-233 is 0.1592) would need to have absorbed permanently into your body for the ongoing radiation equivalent does to be equal to 20mSv per year. it decays into alpha-particle at 4.91 MeV

Effctive dose=sum (Wt x H)


D= half life /Ln2 ( dD/dt)

dD/dt= (Activity x Energy)
