Why is the neutron mass used in this converter?

The neutron mass is a fundamental constant important in nuclear and particle physics, serving as a basis for theoretical mass conversions.

What is a short ton (US ton)?

A short ton, commonly used in the United States, is defined as exactly 2,000 pounds, approximately 907.18474 kilograms.

Is this conversion common in everyday measurements?

No, due to the tiny magnitude of neutron mass compared to a short ton, such conversions are mainly theoretical and rarely applied in typical commercial contexts.
