The Hartree is a unit of energy used in the field of atomic physics, named after physicist Douglas Hartree. It is defined as the kinetic energy of an electron moving in the Bohr orbit of the hydrogen atom. Specifically, one Hartree is equivalent to 4.359744650×10^-18 joules. This unit is used as a natural energy scale in quantum chemistry and physics for atomic-scale energy calculations.
Definition of KilotonA kiloton is a unit of energy typically used to express the amount of energy released in the detonation of a nuclear weapon. It is equivalent to the energy released by the explosion of one thousand tons of TNT (trinitrotoluene). In energy terms, one kiloton is equal to 4.184 terajoules (TJ). This unit is also used in non-military contexts, such as in astrophysics and natural disaster descriptions, to convey vast amounts of energy.
| Hartree Energy (E_h) | Kiloton (kt) |
|---|---|
| 1 E_h | 1.036e-21 kt |
| 10 E_h | 1.036e-20 kt |
| 100 E_h | 1.036e-19 kt |
| 1000 E_h | 1.036e-18 kt |
| 10000 E_h | 1.036e-17 kt |
| 100000 E_h | 1.036e-16 kt |
| 1000000 E_h | 1.036e-15 kt |
| 10000000 E_h | 1.036e-14 kt |
| 100000000 E_h | 1.036e-13 kt |
| 1000000000 E_h | 1.036e-12 kt |
1 E_h = 1.036e-21 kt
1 kt = 9.648e+20 E_h
Example 1:
Convert 5 E_h to kt:
5 E_h = 5 × 1.036e-21 kt = 5.18e-21 kt
Example 2:
Convert 2 E_h to kt:
2 E_h = 2 × 1.036e-21 kt = 2.072e-21 kt
A brief history of the Hartree energy to kiloton converter traces back to the development of atomic and nuclear physics, where the need to translate between different energy scales became evident. Utilizing Hartree energy, a quantum mechanical unit, and kilotons, associated with nuclear energy release, the converter bridges the gap between the micro and macro realms of energy understanding.
