Square Yard
A square yard is a unit of area equal to the area of a square with sides of one yard in length.
History/Origin
The square yard has been used historically in the measurement of land and textiles, originating from the yard measurement system used in the UK and other countries that adopted the imperial system.
Current Use
Today, the square yard is commonly used in real estate, carpeting, and fabric industries, especially in the United States and the UK, for measuring areas of land, floors, and textiles.
Electron Cross Section
Electron cross section (ECS) is a measure of the probability of an electron interacting with a target particle or material, typically expressed in units of area such as square meters or barns.
History/Origin
The concept of cross section originated in nuclear and particle physics to quantify interaction probabilities. The electron cross section has been developed through experimental measurements and theoretical models since the early 20th century, playing a crucial role in understanding electron-matter interactions.
Current Use
ECS is used in fields such as plasma physics, electron microscopy, and radiation physics to analyze electron scattering, collision processes, and material properties, aiding in the design of experiments and interpretation of electron interaction data.
