About Femtocoulombs per kilogram
The femtocoulomb per kilogram (fC/kg) equals 10⁻¹⁵ C/kg. Used in computational dosimetry to characterise the ionisation yield from single low-energy photon interactions in nanogram air volumes; ultra-sensitive free-air ionisation chamber simulations in microdosimetry research report air-ionisation at the fC/kg level. 1 fC/kg = 10⁻¹⁵ C/kg = 10⁻³ pC/kg.
About Coulombs per kilogram
The coulomb per kilogram (C/kg) is the SI derived unit of radiation exposure, equal to 1 coulomb of ion charge liberated per kilogram of dry air. It replaced the roentgen in SI. Calibration of clinical X-ray beams with free-air ionisation chambers and parallel-plate chambers yields results in C/kg. 1 C/kg ≈ 3876 R.
