WHAT DOES FLUENCE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Fluence

In physics, fluence is the flux integrated over time. For particles, it is defined as the total number of particles that intersect a unit area in a specific time interval of interest, and has units of m–2. Fluence can also be used to describe the energy delivered per unit area, in which case it has units of J/m2. It is considered one of the fundamental units in dosimetry. In light based medicine and dentistry, fluence, which may be more properly referred to as radiant exposure, is a measurement of energy over area. The area is usually the spot size of the light device. It has two equivalent definitions: 1. Suppose N particles pass through an area A. The particle fluence for the area A is defined as: . In the limit of infinitesimal area, this is: . 2. Imagine an infinitesimal volume dV with particles passing through it. The particle fluence can be defined as , where is the sum of all the path lengths of the particles that traverse the volume. These definitions are equivalent as can be seen by multiplying the first definition by where dx is the typical path length of a particle in the volume.

Definition of fluence in the English dictionary

The first definition of fluence in the dictionary is particle density or energy density, used to describe the output of a radiation field or of a laser beam. Other definition of fluence is a flow, flowing. Fluence is also fluency.
