    This is a list of scientific units named after people.For other lists of eponyms (names derived from people) see eponym.By convention, the name of the unit is properly written starting with a lowercase letter (except where any word would be capitalized), but the first letter of its symbol is a capital letter if it is derived from a proper name.

  8. SI derived unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_derived_unit

    SI derived units are units of measurement derived from the seven SI base units specified by the International System of Units (SI). They can be expressed as a product (or ratio) of one or more of the base units, possibly scaled by an appropriate power of exponentiation (see: Buckingham π theorem).
