What are Calorieth and Megaton

Definition of Calorieth

A 'calorie' (symbolized as 'cal') is a unit of energy commonly used in the field of chemistry and physics. Specifically, one 'Calorie th,' also known as the 'thermochemical calorie,' is defined as the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at a pressure of one atmosphere.

Definition of Megaton

A 'Megaton' is a unit of explosive energy that is equivalent to one million tons of TNT (trinitrotoluene). It's most often used to describe the energy released by nuclear explosions. One Megaton of energy is equivalent to approximately 4.184 petajoules.
