This is a list of scientific units named after people. For other lists of eponyms (names derived from people) see eponym. Note that by convention, the name of the unit is properly written in all-lowercase whereas its abbreviation is capitalized, but when a unit name contains a person's name as an adjective, the name is capitalized, for example degree Celsius and Mach number.
