What are Barn and Are

Definition of Barn

A barn is a non-standard unit of area used in nuclear physics to quantify the cross-sectional area of nuclei and nuclear reactions. One barn is equivalent to 10^-28 square meters. Although it may seem small, this unit plays a crucial role in understanding particle interactions at a subatomic level, providing physicists with a scale to measure events that are otherwise imperceptibly tiny.

Definition of Are

An are is a metric unit of area that is not commonly used today but is still recognized for land measurement. It is equivalent to 100 square meters. Historically, the are was used in agriculture and forestry, providing a convenient measure for land plots. Although superseded by the hectare, which is 100 ares, the unit still has its place in certain contexts, acting as a bridge between the square meter and the larger hectare.

Barn to Are Conversion Table

Barn (b) Are (a)
1 b 1e-28 a
10 b 1e-27 a
100 b 1e-26 a
1,000 b 1e-25 a
10,000 b 1e-24 a
100,000 b 1e-23 a
1,000,000 b 1e-22 a
10,000,000 b 1e-21 a
100,000,000 b 1e-20 a
1,000,000,000 b 1e-19 a

Conversion of Barn to Are

1 b = 1e-28 a
1 a = 1e+28 b

Example 1:
convert 50 b to a:
50 b = 50 × 1e-28 a = 5e-27 a

Example 2:
convert 200 b to a:
200 b = 200 × 1e-28 a = 2e-26 a

History of Barn and Are

The Barn to Are Converter is a tool that emerged from the need to translate between two vastly different units of area. The barn, a unit prevalent in nuclear physics, and the are, used in land measurement, operate on different scales. This converter was developed to bridge this gap, providing a solution for professionals and academics who require such conversions in their work.
