    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_mass

    An Earth mass (denoted as M 🜨, M ♁ or M E, where 🜨 and ♁ are the astronomical symbols for Earth), is a unit of mass equal to the mass of the planet Earth. The current best estimate for the mass of Earth is M 🜨 = 5.9722 × 10 24 kg , with a relative uncertainty of 10 −4 . [ 2 ]

    Sagittarius A*, abbreviated as Sgr A* (/ ˈ s æ dʒ ˈ eɪ s t ɑːr / SADGE-AY-star [3]), is the supermassive black hole [4] [5] [6] at the Galactic Center of the Milky Way.Viewed from Earth, it is located near the border of the constellations Sagittarius and Scorpius, about 5.6° south of the ecliptic, [7] visually close to the Butterfly Cluster (M6) and Lambda Scorpii.

    The numeric value adopted for ɡ 0 was, in accordance with the 1887 CIPM declaration, obtained by dividing Defforges's result – 980.991 cm⋅s −2 in the cgs system then en vogue – by 1.0003322 while not taking more digits than are warranted considering the uncertainty in the result.

  6. Jupiter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jupiter

    It is a gas giant with a mass more than 2.5 times that of all the other planets in the Solar System combined and slightly less than one-thousandth the mass of the Sun. Its diameter is eleven times that of Earth , and a tenth that of the Sun. Jupiter orbits the Sun at a distance of 5.20 AU (778.5 Gm ), with an orbital period of 11.86 years .

  7. White dwarf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_dwarf

    A white dwarf is very dense: in an Earth sized volume, it packs a mass that is comparable to the Sun. No nuclear fusion takes place in a white dwarf; what light it radiates is from its residual heat. [1] The nearest known white dwarf is Sirius B, at 8.6 light years, the smaller component of the Sirius binary star.

Their meanings and conversions in Mainland China are as follows: [ 46 ] 市斤 (Chinese jin ; character-by-character translation: "market jin "): Or simply called jin , also called "Chinese pound", is a traditional Chinese unit of weight, equals 500 grams.

  9. List of nuclides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nuclides

    The number of protons (Z column) and number of neutrons (N column). energy column The column labeled "energy" denotes the energy equivalent of the mass of a neutron minus the mass per nucleon of this nuclide (so all nuclides get a positive value) in MeV , formally: m n − m nuclide / A , where A = Z + N is the mass number.
