Convert angstrom to Bohr radius
Please provide values below to convert angstrom [A] to Bohr radius [a.u.], or Convert Bohr radius to angstrom.
1 A = 1.88972612463 a.u.. To convert angstrom to Bohr radius, multiply the value by 1.88972612463; to go the other way, divide by it (1 a.u. = 0.529177210903 A). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Angstrom
The angstrom is a unit of length equal to 10⁻¹⁰ meters. It is not an SI unit.
History/Origin
In 1868, Swedish physicist Anders Jonas Ångström created a chart of the spectrum of sunlight in which he expressed the wavelengths in multiples of one ten-millionth of a millimeter. The unit was named after him.
Current Use
The angstrom is used to express the sizes of atoms, molecules, and the wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, particularly in the fields of chemistry, spectroscopy, and crystallography.
Bohr Radius
The Bohr radius is the most probable distance between the proton and the electron in a hydrogen atom in its ground state, 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. It is the atomic unit of length.
Current Use
The Bohr radius is a fundamental constant in atomic physics and is used to simplify calculations and equations.
