Deuteron Mass
The deuteron is the nucleus of deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen, consisting of one proton and one neutron bound together.
Its rest mass is approximately 3.344 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms (about 1875.6 MeV/c²).
The deuteron plays a key role in nuclear physics and fusion reactions.
Summary:
Rest mass ≈ 3.344 × 10⁻²⁷ kg
Equivalent to about 1875.6 MeV/c²
