DIN EN ISO 80000-10 E 2016-09 PDF

Full title and description

STB DIN EN ISO 80000-10 E 2016-09 — Quantities and units — Part 10: Atomic and nuclear physics (English version / draft designation E dated September 2016). This listing corresponds to the national/European adoption draft form of ISO 80000-10 as published for use alongside DIN/EN markings; the underlying international standard (ISO 80000‑10) defines names, symbols, definitions and conversion factors for quantities and units used in atomic and nuclear physics.

Abstract

This part of the ISO 80000 series specifies standardized names and symbols for quantities and units used in atomic and nuclear physics, gives recommended SI and selected non‑SI units, provides conversion factors, and describes conventions for notation and expression of uncertainties. It also includes numeric values of relevant physical constants (CODATA values as used in the edition).

General information

• Status: National/European draft/adoption edition (DIN EN ISO designation) — product listing shows the 2016 English edition/draft; the ISO work has been revised subsequently at the international level.
• Publication date: E 2016-09 (English draft/adoption date September 2016); original ISO edition published 2009 and later revised (ISO 80000‑10:2019).
• Publisher: DIN / EN (national/European adoption markings) — original international publisher: ISO (International Organization for Standardization).
• ICS / categories: 01.060 — Quantities and units.
• Edition / version: E (English) 2016-09 (draft/adoption form of DIN EN ISO designation).
• Number of pages: approx. 67 pages (ISO 80000‑10:2009 edition has 67 pages; national/EN texts are similar in length).

Scope

Specifies the names, symbols and definitions of quantities used in atomic and nuclear physics and gives the coherent SI units and accepted non‑SI units used in the field. The standard provides conversion factors where appropriate, recommended notation and conventions for expressing numerical values and uncertainties, and includes informative annex material on non‑SI units and numerical values of selected physical constants used in atomic and nuclear work. (See ISO 80000‑10 and national/EN adoption documents for complete text and official tables.)

Key topics and requirements

• Standardized names and symbols for atomic and nuclear quantities (e.g., atomic number Z, neutron number N, nucleon number A, rest mass m, rest energy E0).
• Specification of SI units and accepted non‑SI units used in the field (dalton/unified atomic mass unit, electronvolt, etc.) and their conversion factors.
• Numeric values of relevant physical constants (CODATA values as given in the edition) and notes on which set of recommended values is used.
• Conventions for notation, expression of uncertainties, exact/approximate equals, and treatment of dimensionless quantities, angles and radiometric units.
• Informative annexes listing non‑SI units and additional explanatory material tailored to atomic and nuclear physics applications.

Typical use and users

Used by physicists (atomic and nuclear), metrologists, laboratory managers, standards writers, technical editors, publishers of scientific data, and organizations that need harmonized notation and unit treatment for computations, data exchange and reporting in atomic and nuclear physics. It is also used in curricula and reference libraries where consistent unit use is required.

Related standards

Part of the ISO 80000 "Quantities and units" series; related items include ISO 80000‑1 (general principles) and other parts of ISO 80000 addressing mechanics, electromagnetism, time and related quantities. The international ISO 80000‑10:2009 text was later revised by ISO 80000‑10:2019; national/EN adoptions and versions (e.g., DIN EN ISO, BS EN ISO) reflect these international publications and their national publication dates.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: It is the Part 10 of the ISO 80000 series (Quantities and units) that covers atomic and nuclear physics — presented here as a DIN/EN ISO English edition/draft from September 2016 (designation "E 2016-09") corresponding to national/European adoption formatting of the international text.

Q: What does it cover?

A: Names, symbols and definitions of atomic and nuclear quantities, recommended SI and selected non‑SI units, conversion factors, conventions for notation and uncertainties, and relevant numeric values of physical constants as given in the edition.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Researchers and engineers in atomic and nuclear physics, metrology laboratories, standards developers, technical publishers and any organization needing harmonized units and symbols for data exchange and reporting in this technical area.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The ISO 80000‑10 text originating in 2009 has a later international revision (ISO 80000‑10:2019). National/EN/DIN adoption documents (including draft or English edition markings such as E 2016-09) reflect national publication steps; users should consult the latest ISO or national body publication for the current authorized text and any amendments.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — it is Part 10 of the ISO 80000 "Quantities and units" series, a multi‑part set of standards covering quantities, units and symbols across many areas of science and engineering.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: atomic and nuclear physics, quantities and units, SI units, non‑SI units, CODATA constants, symbols, DIN EN ISO, standardization.
