Convert Bohr radius to Sun's radius
Please provide values below to convert Bohr radius [a.u.] to Sun's radius [R_s], or Convert Sun's radius to Bohr radius.
1 a.u. = 7.6064e-20 R_s. To convert Bohr radius to Sun's radius, multiply the value by 7.6064e-20; to go the other way, divide by it (1 R_s = 1.3147e+19 a.u.). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 a.u. = 7.6064e-20 R_s
- 1 R_s = 1.3147e+19 a.u.
- 10 a.u. = 7.6064e-19 R_s
- 100 a.u. = 7.6064e-18 R_s
How to Convert Bohr Radius to Sun's Radius
1 a.u. = 7.60639946676728e-20 R_s
Example: convert 15 a.u. to R_s:
15 a.u. = 15 × 7.60639946676728e-20 R_s = 1.14095992001509e-18 R_s

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.
Sun's Radius
The Sun's radius is the distance from the center of the Sun to its surface, approximately 695,700 kilometers.
History/Origin
The size of the Sun has been measured with increasing accuracy over centuries of astronomical observation.
Current Use
The Sun's radius is a fundamental property of the Sun and is used in astrophysics to model its structure and evolution.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 Bohr radius in Sun's radius?
1 Bohr radius (a.u.) = 7.6064e-20 Sun's radius (R_s).
How do you convert Bohr radius to Sun's radius?
Multiply the Bohr radius value by 7.6064e-20. For example, 25 a.u. × 7.6064e-20 = 1.9016e-18 R_s.
What is 10 Bohr radius in Sun's radius?
10 a.u. = 7.6064e-19 R_s.
Which unit is larger, the Bohr radius or the Sun's radius?
The Sun's radius is the larger unit: 1 a.u. equals only 7.6064e-20 R_s.
