Abhenry

Abhenry is the centimeter-gram-second electromagnetic unit of inductance, equal to one billionth of a henry.

Banff longnose dace

The Banff longnose dace, Rhinichthys cataractae smithi, was a diminutive (about five cm. long) version of the eastern longnose dace, its range restricted to a small marsh fed by two hot springs on Sulphur Mountain in Banff National Park in Banff, Alberta.

Centimetre–gram–second system of units

The first is Coulomb's law, F = k {\rm C} \frac{q \cdot q^\prime}{d^2}, which describes the electrostatic force F between electric charges q and q^\prime, separated by distance d.

NOREM

They are essentially corrosion-immune under the conditions inside CANDU reactors and erode at about 200 micrograms per square centimetre per year under pressurized water reactor conditions.
