Stone (Us)
A stone (st) is a unit of weight primarily used in the United States, equal to 14 pounds or approximately 6.35 kilograms.
History/Origin
The stone has origins in medieval England, where it was used as a convenient weight measure for trade and commerce. Its value varied regionally before standardization, and it has been used historically for measuring human body weight and other goods.
Current Use
Today, the stone is mainly used in the UK and Ireland for body weight measurement, while in the United States, it is rarely used and often replaced by pounds or kilograms in most contexts.
Muon Mass
The muon mass (m_mu) is the rest mass of the muon particle, approximately 105.66 MeV/c² or 1.8835 × 10⁻28 kilograms.
History/Origin
The muon was discovered in 1936 by Carl Anderson and Seth Neddermeyer during cosmic ray experiments. Its mass was later measured and confirmed through particle physics experiments, establishing it as a fundamental lepton similar to the electron but significantly more massive.
Current Use
The muon mass is used in particle physics calculations, experimental physics, and in the calibration of detectors involving muons. It also aids in understanding fundamental particle properties and interactions within the Standard Model.
