Unit Definition (bohr)
The Bohr is a unit of distance commonly used in particle physics. It was named after the Danish physicist Niels Bohr (1885-1962), who explained the structure of atoms in a famous paper in 1913. The Bohr radius represents the mean distance between the proton and the electron in an unexcited hydrogen atom. It equals about 52.918 picometers (pm), or 52.918 x 10e-12 meter.

Unit Definition (fathom [ancient])
A fathom is a unit of measure equal to 2 yards or 6 feet, or 1.8288 metres. The name of the unit derives from the Old English word fæthm meaning 'outstretched arms' which was the original definition of the unit's measure.
