Understanding the Conversion
The kiloelectronvolt (keV) is a unit of energy commonly used in atomic and nuclear physics. One kiloelectronvolt is equal to 1,000 electronvolts (eV). To convert from keV to joules (J), we use the following formula:
1 keV = 1.6022 × 10⁻¹⁶ joules
Common Applications
Kiloelectronvolts are frequently used in:
- X-ray and gamma-ray energy measurements
- Particle physics experiments
- Nuclear medicine imaging
- Electron microscopy
