About these units
Muon Mass (mᵤ)
The muon is a heavier cousin of the electron, with a mass of about 1.8835316 × 10⁻²⁸ kilograms, roughly 207 times more massive than the electron. Because the muon behaves like an electron but with much greater mass, it offers unique opportunities for probing fundamental physics. Muonic atoms—where a muon replaces an electron—allow extremely precise measurements of nuclear size due to the muon's tighter orbit. Muons are also produced naturally in Earth's atmosphere from cosmic rays and are widely studied in particle accelerators. Research into muon behavior has led to major discoveries, and the muon mass continues to attract interest in tests of physics beyond the Standard Model.
Stone (st)
The stone equals 14 pounds, or approximately 6.35029 kilograms, and is commonly used in the United Kingdom and Ireland for expressing human body weight. It has deep traditional roots, originating from stones used as counterweights in early commerce. Although largely replaced by metric units in most applications, the stone remains emotionally and culturally significant for personal weight expression in the UK. Many people find it more intuitive and relatable than kilograms due to long-standing social habits. The stone's endurance highlights how measurement systems reflect cultural identity as much as mathematical convenience. It is one of the few units still commonly used in conversation but not in scientific or industrial contexts.
