Septennial
A septennial is a period of seven years.
History/Origin
The term originates from Latin 'septennium', used historically to denote a seven-year interval, often in contexts such as anniversaries or cycles in various systems.
Current Use
The term 'septennial' is rarely used in modern timekeeping but may appear in historical or literary contexts to describe events or periods lasting seven years.
Shake
A shake is a unit of time equal to 1/60th of a second, used in measuring short durations.
History/Origin
The concept of the shake originated in nuclear physics and military contexts, particularly in the Manhattan Project, where it was used to denote the time it takes for light to travel 1 centimeter, approximately 3.33 nanoseconds. It was adopted as a convenient measure for very brief time intervals.
Current Use
Today, the shake is primarily used in nuclear physics and scientific research to describe extremely short time intervals, especially in nuclear reactions and particle physics. It is rarely used outside specialized scientific contexts.
