Twip
A twip (twentieth of a point) is a unit of typographical measurement equal to 1/1440 of an inch.
History/Origin
The twip was invented by Microsoft as a device-independent unit for layout calculations in its software.
Current Use
The twip is used internally by some software programs for screen and print layout.
A.u. Of Length
The atomic unit of length, also known as the Bohr radius (a₀), is approximately 5.29 x 10⁻¹¹ meters.
History/Origin
The Bohr radius is named after Niels Bohr, who proposed a model of the atom in 1913 where the electron orbits the nucleus at specific distances. The Bohr radius is the most probable distance between the proton and electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state.
Current Use
The atomic unit of length is used in atomic physics to simplify calculations and equations.
