Common Length Conversions Metric Length Conversions Unit Definition (fermi) The Fermi was a metric unit of distance formerly used in atomic physics. One Fermi equals 10e-15 meter, or 1 femtometer. The unit was named after Enrico Fermi (1901-1954), the Italian-American physicist who built the first nuclear reactor. Unit Definition (bohr) The Bohr is a unit of distance commonly used in particle physics. It was named after the Danish physicist Niels Bohr (1885-1962), who explained the structure of atoms in a famous paper in 1913. The Bohr radius represents the mean distance between the proton and the electron in an unexcited hydrogen atom. It equals about 52.918 picometers (pm), or 52.918 x 10e-12 meter.
