eV to GeV Converter

One electronvolt equals 1.0000e-9 gigaelectronvolts (GeV). To convert electronvolts to gigaelectronvolts, multiply by 1.0000e-9; to go back the other way, multiply by 1.0000e+9 instead.

The converter above does it as you type and shows the working underneath, so you can check the arithmetic rather than take the number on trust.

What electronvolts and gigaelectronvolts actually measure

Electronvolt (eV) — An electron-volt is the energy one electron gains crossing one volt — 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ joules. Atomic and particle physics, and semiconductor band gaps.

Gigaelectronvolt (GeV) — A gigaelectron-volt is a billion electron-volts. Particle accelerators and high-energy physics.

How to convert electronvolts to gigaelectronvolts by hand

Multiply the number of electronvolts by 1.0000e-9.

For example, 25 eV × 1.0000e-9 = 2.5000e-8 GeV.

Going the other way, divide by 1.0000e-9 — or multiply by 1.0000e+9, which is the same thing and easier to do in your head.

There is no server involved in the calculation. The numbers you type never leave your device, nothing is logged, and the page keeps working with no connection once it has loaded. That is not a marketing line — it is simply how the tool is built, because a calculation like this has no reason to touch a network.
