The standard unit for expressing stellar and galactic masses.
Astrophysics and cosmology.
Established as astronomers measured the Sun's gravitational influence.
Kilogram-force square second/meter
The kilogram-force second-squared per meter (the hyl or TME) is about 9.807 kg.
The mass unit of the metric gravitational (technical) system.
Older continental European engineering practice.
Used in the metric technical system before SI adoption.
