About Converting Centisieverts to Terasieverts
Centisievert and Terasievert both belong to the radiation-measurement family, though radiation quantities fall into genuinely distinct categories: absorbed dose (gray, rad) measures energy deposited in matter, equivalent dose (sievert, rem) weights that for biological harm, and activity (becquerel, curie) measures how often a radioactive source decays — this page only converts between units of the same kind. Specifically: Centisievert is 0.01 sievert units, and terasievert is 1000000000000 sievert units.
Formula
terasieverts = centisieverts × 1e-14
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 centisievert equals 0.01 base units, and 1 terasievert equals 1e+12 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct centisievert-to-terasievert factor of 1e-14.
Simple example
1 cSv × 1e-14 = 1e-14 TSv
1 centisievert = 1e-14 terasieverts.
Real-world example
10 cSv × 1e-14 = 1e-13 TSv
10 centisieverts = 1e-13 terasieverts.

Reverse conversion: Terasievert to Centisievert
1e-14 TSv × 1e+14 = 1 cSv
1e-14 terasieverts = 1 centisievert.
centisieverts = terasieverts × 1e+14

Frequently asked questions
How many terasieverts are in 1 centisievert?
1 centisievert equals 1e-14 terasieverts, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert centisievert to terasievert?
Multiply the centisievert value by 1e-14. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert terasievert back to centisievert?
Use the reverse factor: 1 terasievert equals 1e+14 centisieverts. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a centisievert?
Centisievert (cSv) is a unit of radiation.
What is a terasievert?
Terasievert (TSv) is a unit of radiation.
Is the centisievert to terasievert conversion exact?
Yes. Both centisievert and terasievert are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 1e-14 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between absorbed dose, equivalent dose, and activity?
Absorbed dose (gray, rad) measures the energy radiation deposits in matter. Equivalent dose (sievert, rem) adjusts that figure for how harmful different types of radiation are to biological tissue. Activity (becquerel, curie) measures how often a radioactive source decays, independent of how much dose a person actually receives from it.
