Subject: [ RadSafe ] Sr-90 Question

Can anyone tell me about how much Sr-90 I would need to get a reading of
0.5 mR/hr at 1 meter? I know that if you go by the rule of thumb (300
R/hr at 1 cm per mCi) you should need around 330 micro-Curies. Can
anyone tell me how close this estimate is?

Regards,

Luke McCormick
