Neper

The crater Neper is located to the north of the mare.

The decibel and the neper have a fixed ratio to each other.

The crater Neper on the Moon is named after him.

It lies to the south-southeast of the large crater Neper.

Like the decibel, the neper is a unit in a logarithmic scale.

To the southeast is the prominent walled plain Neper.

In particular, Neper was especially associated with the most used types of grain, namely barley and emmer wheat.

The northwestern half of the floor is elevated, along the side where ejecta from the younger Neper intrudes into the interior.

The neper, an alternative logarithmic ratio unit sometimes used, uses the natural logarithm (base e).

For the dimensionless unit, see Neper.

It lies in a relatively isolated area, with the nearest named crater being the walled plain Neper to the southeast.

Hence the neper and dB are related via:

Thus, at this point, Neper became considered merely an aspect of Osiris, a much more significant god, gaining the title (one who) lives after dying.

The former constellation Neper, representing an auger, may have been located in or near modern-day Microscopium.

Change in a quantity can also be expressed logarithmically using the unit of logarithmic change: the neper (Np).

Before being given a name by the IAU, this crater had the designation Neper G.

In Egyptian mythology, Neper (alts.

Virchow is a small lunar impact crater that is located on the northwestern interior floor of the prominent crater Neper.

By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Neper.

It lies due east of the larger walled plain Neper, along the southern edge of the Mare Marginis.

The neper is a natural linear unit of relative difference, meaning that that in nepers (logarithmic units), relative differences add, rather than multiply.

Just to the northeast of this formation is the large walled plain Neper, which lies on the southern edge of Mare Marginis.

Neper occurs in the name because the units can also be considered to be nepers per second, neper being a unit of attenuation.

Nepra or Nepri) was a god of grain, while Nepit was a goddess of grain, and the female counterpart of Neper.

In the International System of Units (SI), it is expressed in neper per meter or simply reciprocal of meter ().
