An '''angstrom''' (symbol ''Å'') is a unit of [[length]] equivalent to one ten-billionth of a meter (1×10<sup>−10</sup> m). It is named after [[Sweden|Swedish]] physicist Anders Jonas Ångström. The angstrom is most typically used to measure the size of [[atoms]], as well as the wavelengths of [[electromagnetic radiation]].
