What are Attopascal and Petapascal

Definition of Attopascal

An attoPascal (aPa) is a unit of pressure equal to 10^-18 Pascals. Derived from the metric system, it represents an extremely low magnitude of pressure, often used in scientific calculations where minute pressure measurements are required. Its name is composed of the prefix 'atto-' representing a quintillionth, and the base unit 'Pascal,' named after the French mathematician Blaise Pascal.

Definition of Petapascal

A petaPascal (PPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system equivalent to 10^15 Pascals. It signifies an exceptionally high level of pressure, typically found in geological or astrophysical contexts. The term 'peta-' stems from the Greek 'pente,' meaning five, indicating fifteen orders of magnitude greater than a Pascal, which is the SI unit for pressure, named in honor of Blaise Pascal for his contributions to fluid dynamics and pressure theory.
