Deuteron Mass
The deuteron mass (m_d) is the mass of a deuteron, which is the nucleus of deuterium consisting of one proton and one neutron, approximately 3.3436 × 10^-27 kilograms.
History/Origin
The deuteron mass has been determined through nuclear physics experiments involving mass spectrometry and nuclear reactions, with precise measurements becoming available in the 20th century as experimental techniques advanced.
Current Use
The deuteron mass is used in nuclear physics, astrophysics, and related fields to calculate nuclear reactions, binding energies, and in the calibration of mass spectrometers involving deuterium nuclei.
Femtogram
A femtogram (fg) is a unit of mass equal to 10^-15 grams.
History/Origin
The femtogram was introduced as part of the metric system's extension to measure extremely small masses, particularly in scientific fields such as chemistry and biology, during the 20th century as measurement technology advanced.
Current Use
Femtograms are used in scientific research to measure tiny quantities of substances, such as in molecular biology, nanotechnology, and materials science, where precise measurement of very small masses is required.
