Shekel (Biblical Hebrew)
The shekel (Biblical Hebrew) is an ancient unit of weight and currency used in biblical times, primarily for measuring silver and other precious metals.
History/Origin
Originating in ancient Mesopotamia, the shekel was used as a standard weight and currency in the ancient Near East, notably in biblical Israel. Its weight varied over time and region, but it generally represented a specific mass used for trade and taxation.
Current Use
Today, the shekel is the official currency of Israel (Israeli New Shekel), but the biblical shekel as a unit of weight is no longer in use. The term is primarily historical and religious in context.
Deuteron Mass
The deuteron mass (m_d) is the mass of a deuteron, which is the nucleus of deuterium consisting of one proton and one neutron, approximately 3.3436 × 10^-27 kilograms.
History/Origin
The deuteron mass has been determined through nuclear physics experiments involving mass spectrometry and nuclear reactions, with precise measurements becoming available in the 20th century as experimental techniques advanced.
Current Use
The deuteron mass is used in nuclear physics, astrophysics, and related fields to calculate nuclear reactions, binding energies, and in the calibration of mass spectrometers involving deuterium nuclei.
