Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is an electron cross section?
-
It is an effective area measurement that describes the likelihood of an electron interacting with particles, atoms, or nuclei in microscopic scales.
-
Why convert electron cross section to square miles (US survey)?
-
To relate microscopic effective interaction areas to large-scale land surveying measurements, useful in specialized scientific and geospatial applications.
-
Is this conversion commonly used?
-
No, it is rarely used due to the vastly different spatial scales and specialized nature of the units involved.
Key Terminology
-
Electron cross section
-
A microscopic effective area used to describe the probability of electron interactions with target particles.
-
Square mile (US survey)
-
A unit of area equal to a square with sides of one US survey mile, commonly used in US land surveying.
-
US survey foot
-
A length unit defined as exactly 1200/3937 meters, used in the US surveying system.
