Angstrom
The angstrom is a unit of length equal to 10⁻¹⁰ meters. It is not an SI unit.
History/Origin
In 1868, Swedish physicist Anders Jonas Ångström created a chart of the spectrum of sunlight in which he expressed the wavelengths in multiples of one ten-millionth of a millimeter. The unit was named after him.
Current Use
The angstrom is used to express the sizes of atoms, molecules, and the wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, particularly in the fields of chemistry, spectroscopy, and crystallography.
Fermi
A fermi is a unit of length equal to a femtometer, which is 10⁻¹⁵ meters.
History/Origin
The fermi is named after the Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi. It was a popular unit in nuclear physics.
Current Use
The femtometer is the officially recognized SI unit, but the fermi is still used informally in nuclear and particle physics.
