This is a list of radioactive nuclides (sometimes also called isotopes), ordered by half-life from shortest to longest, in seconds, minutes, hours, days and years. Current methods make it difficult to measure half-lives between approximately 10 −19 and 10 −10 seconds. [1]
Fractional days are often calculated in UTC or TT, although Julian Dates use pre-1925 astronomical date/time (each date began at noon = ".0") and Microsoft Excel uses the local time zone of the computer. Using fractional days reduces the number of units in time calculations from four (days, hours, minutes, seconds) to just one (days).
Unix time passed 1 000 000 000 seconds on 2001-09-09T01:46:40Z. [1] It was celebrated in Copenhagen, Denmark, at a party held by the Danish UNIX User Group at 03:46:40 local time. Unix time [a] is a date and time representation widely used in computing.

A sidereal day is about 4 minutes less than a solar day of 24 hours (23 hours 56 minutes and 4.09 seconds), or 0.99726968 of a solar day of 24 hours. [7] There are about 366.2422 stellar days in one mean tropical year (one stellar day more than the number of solar days). [8]
