Curie
The Curie (Ci) is the traditional unit of Activity (where its SI equivalent in the Becquerel ). 1 Ci is equivalent to 3.7 E10 disintegrations per second (dps) and since 1Bq=1dps it follows that 1Ci = 3.7 E10 Bq (approximately).
curie: The curie (Ci) is the original term used to describe the amount of radioactive material present or strength of the source. It is based upon the radioactive decay rate of the radionuclide. One curie is equal to 3.
Curie (Ci): The original unit used to express the decay rate of a sample of radioactive material. The curie is equal to that quantity of radioactive material in which the number of atoms decaying per second is equal to 37 billion (3.7Ã-1010).
curie : A measure of radioactivity. One Curie of radioactivity is equivalent to 3.7 x 1010 or 37,000,000,000 nuclear disintegrations per second.

Curie (Ci)
The basic unit used to describe the intensity of radioactivity in a sample of material. The curie is equal to 37 billion disintegrations per second, which is approximately the rate of decay of 1 gram of radium.
pCi/l: Pico Curies per liter; a measure of radon concentration.
PELs: Permissible Exposure Limits (standards set by OSHA).
Perception: Awareness of the effects of stimuli.
A unit of measure for documenting exposure to radon decay products, the so-called "daughters." One working level is equal to approximately 200 Pico Curies per litre.
