| example of usage |
Radiation quality is often expressed in terms of the linear energy transfer of the ionising particles that deliver the absorbed dose. Rossi, Harald H. Specification of Radiation Quality. Radiation Research, vol. 10, no. 5, Radiation Research Society, 1959, pp. 522 31, https://doi.org/10.2307/3570787. But this is an over simplification. |
