Moment magnitude scale both scales. Unlike other scales, the moment magnitude scale does not saturate at the upper end; there is no upper limit to the possible measurable magnitudes. However, this has the side-effect that the scales diverge for smaller earthquakes. Various ways of determining moment magnitude have been developed, and several subtypes of the scale can be used to indicate the basis used. Moment magnitude scale The moment magnitude scale (MMS; denoted as M" or M") is one of many seismic magnitude scales used to measure the size of earthquakes. The scale was developed in the 1970s to succeed the 1930s-era Richter
Macroscopic scale particles with lower mass-energies are also part of high energy physics; they also have a mass-energy that is far higher than that at the macroscopic scale (such as electrons), or are equally involved in reactions at the particle level (such as neutrinos). Relativistic effects, as in particle accelerators and cosmic rays, can further increase the accelerated particles' energy by many orders of magnitude, as well as the total energy of the particles emanating from their collision and annihilation. Macroscopic scale The macroscopic scale is the length scale on which objects or phenomena are large enough to be visible almost practically
