Why is the conversion factor for gigagram to deuteron mass so large?

Because a gigagram represents a very large macroscopic mass, converting it to the much smaller deuteron mass unit results in a very large numeric factor.

In what fields is converting gigagram to deuteron mass useful?

This conversion is important in nuclear physics, fusion research, astrophysics, and high-precision mass spectrometry.

Is this converter suitable for everyday mass measurements?

No, it is specialized for scientific research and is not commonly used for typical mass conversion needs.
