Hi everyone,
Resolution 3 of the 27th CGPM introduces 4 new decimal prefixes :
https://www.bipm.org/en/cgpm-2022/resolution-3
10^27 ronna
R
10^–27 ronto
r
10^30 quetta
Q
10^–30 quecto
q
I don't think they pose any issue with what we have in VOUnits.
https://ivoa.net/documents/VOUnits/20220525/index.html
R is also used for rayleigh, but because bare unit prefixes are
ungrammatical,
I don't think they pose any issue in the parsing.
I suggest these could be added to the Table 3 of the VOUnits document.
Sébastien
