About Yoctoseconds

A yoctosecond (ys) = 10⁻²⁴ s - the smallest named SI prefix time unit. Light travels ~0.3 fm in 1 ys, about one-tenth the proton charge radius. Strong-force quark binding operates on ~1 ys timescales; W and Z boson lifetimes are ~260-290 ys. Lead-lead collisions at the LHC produce quark-gluon plasma that thermalises within a few ys. These timescales are inferred from decay widths via ΔE × Δt ≥ ℏ. 1 ys = 10⁻²⁴ s.

About Hours

An hour (h) = exactly 3,600 s. The 24-hour day traces to ancient Egypt (10 daylight hours + 2 twilight + 12 night star-rise periods). Time zones are integer or half-hour UTC offsets (exceptions: India +5:30, Nepal +5:45). The kilowatt-hour = 3,600,000 J; Tc-99m half-life = 6.0067 h. Drug dosing and pharmacokinetics are expressed in hours. 1 h = 3,600 s = 60 min = 1/24 day.
