What is faster than a zeptosecond?

The only unit of time shorter than a zeptosecond is a yoctosecond, and Planck time. A yoctosecond (ys) is a septillionth of a second.

How fast is a yoctosecond?

A yoctosecond (ys) is a septillionth of a second or 10–24 s*. Yocto comes from the Latin/Greek word octo/οκτώ, meaning "eight", because it is equal to 1000−8. Yocto is the smallest official SI prefix. A yoctosecond is the shortest lifetime measured, so far.

Is there a Centisecond?

The centisecond (cs) is a unit of time in the International System of Units, defined as 10−2 second using the SI prefix system.

What happens in a yoctosecond?

One yoctosecond is one trillionth of a trillionth of a second (10–24 s) and is comparable to the time it takes light to cross an atomic nucleus. Indeed, the researchers say that such pulses could be used to study the ultrafast processes taking place inside nuclei.

What happens in a Yoctosecond?

One yoctosecond is one trillionth of a trillionth of a second (10–24 s) and is comparable to the time it takes light to cross an atomic nucleus. Indeed, the researchers say that such pulses could be used to study the ultrafast processes taking place inside nuclei.

Is a zeptosecond faster than a attosecond?

An attosecond is 1×10−18 of a second (one quintillionth of a second). For comparison, an attosecond is to a second what a second is to about 31.71 billion years. The word "attosecond" is formed by the prefix atto and the unit second. … An attosecond is equal to 1000 zeptoseconds, or 1⁄1000 of a femtosecond.
