Square Rod (Us Survey)
A square rod (US survey) is a unit of area equal to the area of a square with sides measuring one rod (16.5 feet) each, used primarily in land measurement.
History/Origin
The square rod originated from the traditional land measurement system in the United States, particularly in surveying and real estate, where the rod was a common unit of length. It has been used historically for measuring plots of land, especially in rural and agricultural contexts.
Current Use
Today, the square rod (US survey) is largely obsolete and replaced by more modern units like acres. However, it may still be encountered in historical land records and surveying documents.
Electron Cross Section
Electron cross section (ECS) is a measure of the probability of an electron interacting with a target particle or material, typically expressed in units of area such as square meters or barns.
History/Origin
The concept of cross section originated in nuclear and particle physics to quantify interaction probabilities. The electron cross section has been developed through experimental measurements and theoretical models since the early 20th century, playing a crucial role in understanding electron-matter interactions.
Current Use
ECS is used in fields such as plasma physics, electron microscopy, and radiation physics to analyze electron scattering, collision processes, and material properties, aiding in the design of experiments and interpretation of electron interaction data.
