What are Decimeter and Barn

Definition of Decimeter

A decimeter is a metric unit of length that is equal to one-tenth of a meter. It is a standard unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI), commonly used in various fields of science, engineering, and everyday measurements.

Definition of Barn

A barn is a non-SI unit of area used in nuclear physics to quantify the cross-sectional area of nuclei and atomic particles. One barn equals 1e-28 square meters, and it is particularly useful in representing the probability of interaction between particles.
