Conversion Formula
a_trop = zs × 3.168876540e-29
About Zeptoseconds
A zeptosecond (zs) = 10⁻²¹ s. In 2020, physicists at Goethe University Frankfurt measured the H₂ photoionisation time at ~247 zs - the first direct event measurement at this timescale. W-boson lifetime ~300 zs; strong-force quark confinement dynamics ~1-3 zs. These timescales are resolved via the energy-time uncertainty relation and lattice-QCD simulations. 1 zs = 10⁻²¹ s = 1,000 ys.
About Tropical Years
The tropical year = time from March equinox to the next = 365.24219 days = 31,556,925.2 s - the year that governs the seasons. The Gregorian 97/400 leap rule approximates it as 365.2425 days, leaving a residual drift of only ~26.8 s/year. The tropical year shortens ~0.53 s per century due to tidal deceleration. Persian Solar Hijri and Mayan Haab' calendars also approximate it. 1 a_trop ≈ 365.24219 d.
