Gigavolt

One gigavolt is equal to one billion volts (1e9 volts).

History: Gigavolt potentials occur in cosmic-ray physics and pulsed high-voltage research.

Current use: Used for accelerator physics, lightning research, and pulsed-power experiments.

Also written as GV.

Megavolt

A megavolt equals 10^6 volts.

History: The megavolt scales the volt for high-voltage transmission and physics applications.

Current use: Used in high-voltage power transmission, particle accelerators, and electrical breakdown studies.

Also written as MV, megavolts.
