Troy Ounce
The troy ounce (ozt) equals about 31.103 grams, one-twelfth of a troy pound.
From the Troy system of weights associated with Troyes, France.
The global standard for pricing gold, silver, platinum, and palladium.
Established in the medieval Troy system and retained for precious metals.
Sun's Mass
The solar mass (M(S)) is about 2.0E30 kg.
The standard unit for expressing stellar and galactic masses.
Astrophysics and cosmology.
Established as astronomers measured the Sun's gravitational influence.
