Template:Solar mass/doc

Usage

• {{Solar mass}} → M_☉
• {{Solar mass|FOOBAR}} → FOOBAR M_☉ (with non-breaking space)

Usually, this will be used as:

• {{Solar mass|10}} → 10 M_☉
• {{Solar mass|{{val|13|1|-2|e=7}}}} → 13+1
  −2×10⁷ M_☉

Alternatively, one could use template {{val}} with |u=:

• {{val|12|e=3|u=Solar mass}} → 12×10³ M_☉
• {{val|12|e=3|u=M_solar}} → 12×10³ M_☉

Parameters

To include a link to solar mass, use the |link=yes parameter (or |link=y):

• {{Solar mass|link=yes}} → M_☉

Alternatively, one could use template {{val}} with parameter |ul=:

• {{val|45|e=6|ul=Solar mass}} → 45×10⁶ M_☉
• {{val|45|e=6|ul=M_solar}} → 45×10⁶ M_☉

For output suitable for first mention in prose per MOS:CONVERSIONS, specify a value and set the parameter |first=yes:

• {{Solar mass|77|first=yes}} → 77 solar masses (M_☉; 1.53×10³² kg)
• {{Solar mass|1,400,000|first=yes}} → 1,400,000 solar masses (M_☉; 2.8×10³⁶ kg)
