About Julian Years
The Julian year (a_J) = exactly 365.25 days = 31,557,600 s - the IAU standard year for astronomical distances. The light-year is formally 1 ly = c × 1 a_J = 9.461 × 10¹⁵ m (IAU 2012 B2). Julian years differ from Gregorian years by only 648 s (~10.8 min/year); important for high-precision astrometry or calculations spanning centuries. 1 a_J = 365.25 d = 31,557,600 s.
About Months
A mean Gregorian calendar month = 365.2425 ÷ 12 = 30.436875 days = 2,629,746 s exactly (averaged over the 400-year cycle with exactly 97 leap years). Individual months have 28-31 days. Loan schedules, subscriptions, and mobile billing reference 'per month', requiring explicit agreement on meaning. ISO 8601 uses 'P1M'. 1 mo = 30.436875 d = 2,629,746 s.
