= Orders of magnitude (radiation)
{wiki=Orders_of_magnitude_(radiation)}
Orders of magnitude in the context of radiation typically refer to the exponential scale used to measure and compare different levels of radiation exposure, intensity, or energy. When discussing radiation, orders of magnitude can help express differences in quantities that can vary by large factors, making it easier to understand the relative scales involved. For example, the intensity of radiation can vary widely from very low levels (such as background radiation) to extremely high levels (such as those found in certain medical or industrial applications).
