What is an attojoule per second (aJ/s)?

An attojoule per second is a unit of power equal to 10^-18 joules transferred per second, representing extremely small rates of energy transfer.

What does Btu (IT)/second measure?

Btu (IT)/second measures power as the rate of heat transfer or energy conversion using the International Table British thermal unit per second.

Why convert from attojoule/second to Btu (IT)/second?
