Rolf Maximilian Sievert (1896-1966)
Description
16th CGPM (Conference General de Poids et Mesures) conference in 1979 accepted sievert (Sv) as the unit for dose equivalent for ionizing radiation in honour of Swedish physicist Rolf Maximilian Sievert. This unit is a part of the international system (SI) for units and measures. Sievert's particular fields of interest were radiation dose measurement and radiation protection, where he had played a pioneering role. The idea of the article is to give a closer look into the life and work of this great scientist.(author)
