Table 2. The relationship between the random double event probability and gamma ray dose rate for a 10 micron diameter cell.
| Gamma-ray dose rate (mGy y-1) | Fraction of cells per year which contain a double event |
| 2 | 4.57 x 10-4 |
| 1 | 1.14 x 10-4 |
| 0.1 | 1.14 x 10-6 |
| 0.01 | 1.14 x 10-8 |
| 0.001 | 1.14 x 10-10 |
