About these units

Megameter (Mm)

The megameter, measuring one million meters (1,000 kilometers), is useful for describing large geographical or geophysical distances on planetary scales. Earth's radius (approximately 6.37 Mm) and the thickness of atmospheric layers can be expressed effectively in megameters. This unit provides a clean and compact way to represent massive distances without resorting to scientific notation. The megameter also appears in discussions of communication signals, satellite orbits, and especially planetary science. While kilometers are still more common in public-facing contexts, megameters offer a more mathematically elegant representation for large calculations. They provide a middle ground between human-scale geography and astronomical units.

Bohr Radius (a₀)

The Bohr radius, equal to approximately 5.29177 × 10⁻¹¹ meters, is the most probable distance between the electron and nucleus in the ground state of hydrogen according to the Bohr model. While modern quantum mechanics has evolved far beyond the Bohr model, the radius remains a remarkably accurate approximation for average atomic dimensions. The Bohr radius acts as a natural "yardstick" for the size of atoms and is frequently used in atomic physics and quantum chemistry. Many atomic properties — orbital sizes, electron probability distributions, and energy levels — are conveniently expressed in multiples of the Bohr radius. Because it reflects fundamental constants, including Planck's constant and the electron charge, the Bohr radius also appears in theoretical analyses of physical systems and helps unify atomic physics concepts across different contexts.
