Minute (Sidereal)
A sidereal minute is a unit of time equal to 1/60th of a sidereal hour, used in astronomy to measure time based on Earth's rotation relative to distant stars.
History/Origin
The sidereal minute originated from the need to measure Earth's rotation relative to distant celestial objects, with its concept dating back to the development of sidereal time in astronomy during the 19th century.
Current Use
Sidereal minutes are primarily used in astronomy and astrophysics to specify precise time intervals related to Earth's rotation relative to stars, especially in celestial coordinate systems and telescope tracking.
Shake
A shake is a unit of time equal to 1/60th of a second, used in measuring short durations.
History/Origin
The concept of the shake originated in nuclear physics and military contexts, particularly in the Manhattan Project, where it was used to denote the time it takes for light to travel 1 centimeter, approximately 3.33 nanoseconds. It was adopted as a convenient measure for very brief time intervals.
Current Use
Today, the shake is primarily used in nuclear physics and scientific research to describe extremely short time intervals, especially in nuclear reactions and particle physics. It is rarely used outside specialized scientific contexts.
