    One momme = 4.340 g/m 2; 8 mommes is approximately 1 ounce per square yard or 35 g/m 2. The momme is based on the standard width of silk of 45 inches (1.1 m) wide (though silk is regularly produced in 55-inch (1.4 m) widths and uncommonly in larger widths). The usual range of momme weight for different weaves of silk are: Habutai—5 to 16 mm

    Sv. ≡ 1 J/kg [44] = 1 Sv = 1 J/kg = 1 m 2 ⋅s 2. Although the definitions for sievert (Sv) and gray (Gy) would seem to indicate that they measure the same quantities, this is not the case. The effect of receiving a certain dose of radiation (given as Gy) is variable and depends on many factors, thus a new unit was needed to denote the ...
