What are Terahertz and Gigametres

Definition of Terahertz

Terahertz (THz) is a unit of frequency that equals one trillion hertz or 10^12 hertz. It falls in the electromagnetic spectrum between microwaves and infrared light, often referred to as submillimeter radiation. Terahertz waves can penetrate various materials, making them highly useful in medical imaging, security scanning, and material characterization. The frequency of THz waves, combined with their non-ionizing nature, opens endless possibilities for scientific and industrial applications.

Definition of Gigametres

A gigametre (Gm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to one billion meters or 10^9 meters. This unit is primarily used in astronomy to measure vast distances within our solar system and beyond. For instance, the average distance from the Earth to the Sun is approximately 150 gigametres. Using gigametres helps scientists and researchers convey astronomical distances more straightforwardly, providing a more comprehensible scale for cosmic measurements.
