radiant exposure, \(H\)

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.R05042
radiant energy, Q, incident from all upward directions on a small sphere divided by the cross-sectional area of that sphere. SI unit is J m-2.
Notes:
  1. Equivalent definition: Irradiance, E integrated over the time of @I03255@.
  2. Mathematical definition: H = dQ/dS = ∫(t) E.dt. If Q is constant over the area, H = Q/S. If E is constant over the time interval, H = E.t.
  3. This term refers to a beam not scattered or reflected by the target or its surroundings. For a beam incident from all directions fluence (Ho, Fo) is an equivalent term.
