About these units

A.U. of Length (a.u.)

The atomic unit of length, also known as the Bohr radius unit in atomic units, is approximately 5.29177 × 10⁻¹¹ meters. It is defined as the radius of the lowest-energy orbital of the hydrogen atom, providing a natural scale for describing atomic and quantum mechanical systems. Atomic units were devised to simplify equations in quantum chemistry and atomic physics by normalizing fundamental constants such as electron charge, Planck's constant, and electron mass to 1. In this system, many equations become dimensionless and far easier to manipulate mathematically. The atomic unit of length is essential in molecular orbital calculations, quantum simulations, and the study of electron behavior in atoms and molecules. Its use reflects an approach to physics in which units are chosen to match the natural scales of the systems being studied.

Rod (US Survey) (rd (US))

The US Survey Rod equals 16.5 US Survey Feet (~5.0292 meters). Like the chain and furlong, it serves as a subdivision of larger units, maintaining consistency with historic Gunter-based measurements. Surveyors historically used rods to measure short distances, delineate boundaries, and calculate acreages. Its simple relationship to chains and furlongs made it practical for field measurements without complex arithmetic. Today, the US survey rod primarily appears in historical records, legal surveys, and when referencing pre-metric property data, providing continuity between older and modern surveying conventions.
