Units explained

Metric / SI

Decigram

What is a decigram?

A decigram (dg) equals 0.0001 kilogram, or 0.1 gram.

Origin of the decigram

From the SI prefix 'deci-' (from Latin 'decimus', tenth).

Where it is used

Occasional laboratory and pharmacy use.

When and where it was developed

Part of the original metric system of 1795.

Scientific / Atomic

Deuteron Mass

What is a deuteron mass?

The deuteron mass is about 3.344E-27 kg.

Origin of the deuteron mass

The mass of the deuteron, the nucleus of deuterium (one proton and one neutron).

Where it is used

Nuclear physics and fusion-energy research.

When and where it was developed

Established with the discovery of deuterium by Harold Urey in 1931.

Decigram to Deuteron Mass conversion formula

Note: this conversion uses a generally accepted modern value. Historical and regional definitions of this unit varied across times and places.

The relationship between decigrams and deuteron mass:

1 dg = 2.990801e+22 md
1 md = 3.343586e-23 dg

To convert decigrams to deuteron mass, multiply the value in decigrams by 2.990801e+22. To reverse, multiply deuteron mass by 3.343586e-23.

Step-by-step: convert decigrams to deuteron mass

  1. Write down the value in decigrams (dg).
  2. Multiply that value by the factor 2.990801e+22.
  3. The product is the equivalent value in deuteron mass (md).
  4. To reverse, multiply the deuteron mass value by 3.343586e-23.

Worked examples

Example 1 — Convert 1 dg to md:
1 × 2.990801e+22 = 2.990801e+22 md

Example 2 — Convert 100 dg to md:
100 × 2.990801e+22 = 2.990801e+24 md

Real-world example — From microns to sub-micron features

One decigram equals one thousand deuteron mass — the conversion semiconductor designers do constantly when comparing mask feature dimensions to actual transistor gate lengths.

1 dg × 2.990801e+22 = 2.990801e+22 md

Real-world example — Infrared to visible-spectrum mapping

A 10-decigram thermal infrared wavelength corresponds to a much larger number in deuteron mass, the unit favoured for ultraviolet and visible-light specifications.

10 dg × 2.990801e+22 = 2.990801e+23 md

Real-world example — Mid-micron to nanometer

3 decigrams equals 3,000 deuteron mass — useful when relating mid-infrared wavelengths (typically quoted in microns) to nanometer-scale visible-light wavelength tables.

3 dg × 2.990801e+22 = 8.972403e+22 md
