electron-volt (medicine) and Hanover (tourism)


electron-volt (medicine)


electron-volt
<unit> A General unit of energy of moving particles, equal to the kinetic energy acquired by an electron losing one volt of potential, equal to 1.602 x 10-19 J.

This is the energy an electron (or Other particle of charge=1 such as a proton), gains as it is accelerated through a potential difference of 1 volt. In plasma physics the electron-volt is used as a unit of temperature when the mean particle energy is 1 eV, the temperature of the plasma is roughly 11, 600 Kelvin (the conversion from eV to K is via the Boltzmann constant).

Abbreviation: eV
