ConstantID

The electron mass in MeV/c², grams and other units

The electron mass is measured, with a relative uncertainty of about 0.3 parts per billion. Converting kilograms to MeV/c² uses only exact factors (c and e), so the converted values keep that uncertainty.

How it is computed: mₑ × c² ÷ (1.602 176 634 × 10⁻¹³ J/MeV) = 0.510 998 950 69.

All values computed from the CODATA 2022 value and unit definitions (SI Brochure, NIST SP 811). Exact values are rounded only for display. Checks.
