  2. Mass-to-charge ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass-to-charge_ratio

    The mass-to-charge ratio (m/Q) is a physical quantity relating the mass (quantity of matter) and the electric charge of a given particle, expressed in units of kilograms per coulomb (kg/C). It is most widely used in the electrodynamics of charged particles , e.g. in electron optics and ion optics .

  3. Proton-to-electron mass ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton-to-electron_mass_ratio

    In physics, the proton-to-electron mass ratio (symbol μ or β) is the rest mass of the proton (a baryon found in atoms) divided by that of the electron (a lepton found in atoms), a dimensionless quantity, namely: μ = m p /⁠m e = 1 836.152 673 426 (32). [1]

  4. Plasma parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_parameters

    All quantities are in Gaussian units except energy and temperature which are in electronvolts.For the sake of simplicity, a single ionic species is assumed. The ion mass is expressed in units of the proton mass, = / and the ion charge in units of the elementary charge, = / (in the case of a fully ionized atom, equals to the respective atomic number).

  5. Electron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron

    The invariant mass of an electron is approximately 9.109 × 10 −31 kg, [80] or 5.489 × 10 −4 Da. Due to mass–energy equivalence, this corresponds to a rest energy of 0.511 MeV (8.19 × 10 −14 J). The ratio between the mass of a proton and that of an electron is about 1836.

  6. Elementary charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_charge

    The elementary charge, usually denoted by e, is a fundamental physical constant, defined as the electric charge carried by a single proton (+ 1e) or, equivalently, the magnitude of the negative electric charge carried by a single electron, which has charge −1 e. [2] [a]

  7. Proton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton

    A proton is a stable subatomic particle, symbol p, H +, or 1 H + with a positive electric charge of +1 e (elementary charge).Its mass is slightly less than the mass of a neutron and approximately 1836 times the mass of an electron (the proton-to-electron mass ratio).

  8. Gyromagnetic ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyromagnetic_ratio

    Spin and magnetic moment are in the same direction for γ > 0 (as for protons). Protons, neutrons, and many nuclei carry nuclear spin, which gives rise to a gyromagnetic ratio as above. The ratio is conventionally written in terms of the proton mass and charge, even for neutrons and for other nuclei, for the sake of simplicity and consistency.

  9. Electron mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_mass

    In particle physics, the electron mass (symbol: m e) is the mass of a stationary electron, also known as the invariant mass of the electron. It is one of the fundamental constants of physics . It has a value of about 9.109 × 10 −31 kilograms or about 5.486 × 10 −4 daltons , which has an energy-equivalent of about 8.187 × 10 −14 joules ...
