Planck Mass
The Planck mass (m_P) is a fundamental physical constant representing a mass scale derived from natural units, approximately 2.176 × 10^-8 kilograms.
History/Origin
Introduced by Max Planck in 1899 as part of his system of natural units, the Planck mass emerged from combining fundamental constants to define a universal mass scale in theoretical physics.
Current Use
The Planck mass is primarily used in theoretical physics, especially in quantum gravity and high-energy physics, to express natural units and scale phenomena near the Planck scale.
Picogram
A picogram (pg) is a unit of mass equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a gram.
History/Origin
The picogram was introduced as part of the metric system to measure extremely small masses, especially in scientific and laboratory contexts, as a subdivision of the gram in the SI unit system.
Current Use
Picograms are used in scientific fields such as biology, chemistry, and physics to measure very small quantities of substances, including DNA, proteins, and other microscopic materials.
