Proton Mass (mₕ (p))
The proton mass, approximately 1.67262192369 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms, is central to chemistry, nuclear physics, and cosmology. Protons, along with neutrons, form the nuclei of atoms and therefore compose most of the mass of ordinary matter. The proton mass arises from the strong nuclear force and the dynamics of quarks and gluons within quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Interestingly, most of the proton's mass is not from its constituent quarks but from the energy stored in the strong force. Understanding the proton mass helps scientists explore nuclear stability, binding energies, and stellar nucleosynthesis—the processes that form elements inside stars.
Quadrans (Biblical Roman) (quadrans)
The quadrans, worth 1/4 of an as, weighed around 3 grams, typically made of bronze rather than silver. It served the Roman lower classes for everyday purchases—food, small household items, and public baths. In biblical passages, the quadrans symbolizes poverty and small generosity, anchoring theological teachings in real economic terms.
