What are Attojoule and Megaelectron-volt

Definition of Attojoule

An attojoule (aJ) is a unit of energy equal to 10^-18 joules. It's a derived unit in the International System of Units (SI) that represents a very small amount of energy. This unit is commonly used in the fields of physics and chemistry to measure minuscule energy levels, such as those found in atomic and subatomic particles.

Definition of Megaelectron-volt

A megaelectron-volt (MeV) is a unit of energy commonly used in the field of particle physics. It is equivalent to one million electron-volts or 1.60218 x 10^-13 joules. This unit measures the energy of particles accelerated by electric fields, as one electron-volt is the amount of kinetic energy gained by a single electron when it accelerates through an electric potential difference of one volt.
