Why Is Rolf Maximilian Sievert Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Rolf Maximilian Sievert was a Swedish medical physicist whose major contribution was in the study of the biological effects of ionizing radiation. The sievert , the SI unit representing the stochastic health risk of ionizing radiation, is named for him. He has been called the "Father of Radiation Protection".
