Convert millisecond to attosecond
Please provide values below to convert millisecond [ms] to attosecond [as], or Convert attosecond to millisecond.
How to Convert Millisecond to Attosecond
1 ms = 1e+15 as
Example: convert 15 ms to as:
15 ms = 15 × 1e+15 as = 1.5e+16 as

Millisecond
A millisecond (ms) is a unit of time equal to one thousandth of a second.
History/Origin
The millisecond was introduced as a standard unit of time measurement with the development of precise timekeeping and scientific instrumentation in the 20th century, particularly with the advent of electronic clocks and digital technology.
Current Use
Milliseconds are widely used in computing, telecommunications, and scientific measurements to denote very short durations, such as in data processing, network latency, and high-frequency trading.
Attosecond
An attosecond is a unit of time equal to 10^-18 seconds, used to measure extremely short durations, particularly in atomic and subatomic processes.
History/Origin
The attosecond was introduced in the early 21st century as scientists developed ultrafast laser techniques to observe electron dynamics, marking a significant advancement in time measurement at atomic scales.
Current Use
Attoseconds are primarily used in physics and chemistry to study ultrafast phenomena such as electron movements, chemical reactions, and quantum dynamics, often through attosecond laser pulses and spectroscopy.
