säteilytasoja
Säteilytasoja, or radiation levels, refer to the intensity of ionizing radiation present in a given environment. Ionizing radiation includes particles such as alpha and beta particles, neutrons, as well as electromagnetic radiation in the form of gamma rays and X-rays. The magnitude of radiation exposure is quantified in units such as sieverts (Sv) for dose and becquerels (Bq) for radioactivity, with the latter measuring the number of disintegrations per second.
Natural background radiation originates from cosmic rays, terrestrial sources like radionuclides in soil and building materials,
Regulatory bodies, such as the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP), set dose limits for occupational
Public policy and emergency response plans address accidental releases of radioactive materials. When a release occurs,
